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…

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…
A few days in Burgundy
It feels great to be back after the holidays! I hope 2013 has been good to you so far? We spent a few days in Burgundy to relax and recharge our batteries. I'm ready for a busy & exciting new year! The Burgundy region feels very familiar to me. I celebrated my first birthday here Read article…
Building green shelves
It all started with the view above: in the corner right from our mantle that contains a working fireplace, I placed this FENCY plant rack. Every time I looked at it, it looked so messy, too small for that corner, and just not very cozy. This corner of our living room features our large Cubit Read article…

They asked me to be their guest blogger this month and bien sûr I said yes: I mean the topic couldn't be a better match: "Les Plantes et les couleurs" (Plants & Colors). Both inspire me so Read article…
Urban Jungle Bloggers #28
Plants & Glass: seems like the perfect topic to get back into the blogging groove as Igor and I have been delved into planty of work for #urbanjunglebook in these past few months.

Bananaaaaa!
Yes, I’m going bananas! It has nothing to do with minions, but with a crazy ear infection that’s been chasing me for the past month. The different kinds of pills ease the pain but make me nauseous and I don’t feel strong enough to run (so frustrating!). And overall I feel a bit bleh, despite Read article…
My favorite trips of 2013

My favorite Aire de Jugy
I love traveling in my own country. The Oise region is really nice, but nothing makes me happier than driving on the Autoroute du Soleil. Ohhh… the promise of sun, la mer and pine trees in the South of France… ♥ A break at one of the many rest areas along the road makes it Read article…
On the Oise
This weeked, I did something that I've been wanting to do for over a decade. Do you see the above picture? That's the view from our home: we live along the riverside of the Oise. Every day we see transport ships, rowing boats and swans go by but we had never made a boat trip Read article…
