A whipped weekend
In French Chantilly also means whipped cream. So, besides the Chateau and the horses, that's what Chantilly is known for as well. Last weekend, Framboise invited* me & my husband for a romantic get-away in a brand new hotel in Chantilly, called l'Auberge du Jeu de Paume. I think it was the first time that Read article…

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…
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…
