Furry friends from Burgundy
Just a few pictures of the furry animals I "met" last week in Burgundy! Two very friendly and fluffy donkeys with the softest ears ever: Most Charolais cows were very shy and ran away as soon as I approached them ( which my husband thought was very hilarious ). These young ones were curious at Read article…
Vintage Sapique 17
[[movie vimeo,56777486,424,755]] My second favorite room in our home, and the place that I missed most when we were in Burgundy over the holidays, is our cosy white bedroom. I'm a "talented" sleeper and can easily sleep 12 hours straight. Preferably in a comfortable bed! (and not in a tiny bed with stiff bed sheets Read article…
Les anis de Flavigny
Today let me take you to the village where the movie "Chocolat" was filmed. You know that movie with Johnny Depp & Juliette Binoche that you can't watch without craving something sweet? When you walk along the streets of this (very pretty!) medieval village you smell something sweet. It's the anise & sugar used for Read article…
Bzzz Bzzz from Burgundy
If there would be one profession I would ever "consider", it would be beekeeper. Being surrounded by the zooming "bzzz" of my bees and eating honey, Royal Jelly & pollen every day sounds bliss. I would have to work hard, because from what I know, it's quite a lot of work to be a good Read article…

Goodbye 2012!
2012 was a great year for traveling. We started the year in Bretagne and traveled by night train to Perpignan that same month. I was in London in march and went to Berlin in may where I met so many cool people at The Hive. We also spent a few days in Provence. <3 I Read article…
A snow white recipe
After the past few hectic months, I wanted to create something quiet & soft. And delicious! When I stumbled upon this recipe by Lisa from MakeMyLemonade ( check her cute GIFs! ) I knew this was what I wanted. It's actually one of my favorite Vietnamese desserts with a twist. Very rich, soft and pretty. Read article…
Iron Man
Like many, we went for a family walk on xmas day. Not far away from where I grew up, lays a lake with a small island, called the Iron Man ( after the machine that dug it at the end of the 19th century ). I have fond memories of this place: swimming in the Read article…
