Another Christmas Goodie
So, when I got this book for Christmas from pals Janie and Jack, I dove immediately into its pages. It's all about the open air markets of Provence, one for each day of the week, complete with recipes for traditional Provençal dishes and directions on how to get to the markets. Filled with glorious photos, too, this book is written and illustrated entirely by folks who live in the Bay area but travel frequently to France or live there part time. It's a lovely book, one that confirms my adding a return visit to Provence to my bucket list.
Perhaps for my 65th birthday, which is only about a year away, I will take this book, head for Provence, install myself and My Beloved in a rented house or apartment, and invite as many of my friends as will come to join us. Sounds like a good plan to me!

Just give me fair warning to renew my passport!
Cookiecrumb, okay, kiddo, it's a date!
You are ONLY 64? So young and so wise! But I've seen that book and it's absolutely enchanting and makes me want to move to France.
Nancy, my 64th birthday will be in February - and Feb 2012 will be my Medicare birthday. Eeek!
