The past several days have actually been quite busy.
Saturday was Valentine's Day and it was actually enjoyable. I met up with Cate, Piper and Emma downtown and we made a day of it. We shopped and I bought a new dress, a purse and a new wallet to hold euros which didn't fit properly in my last wallet. We then realized that it is impossible to have a late lunch in France; places are closed. So we decided to get bread, wine, cheese, salami and go to a chocolate shop for a special v-day treat. We headed back to Emma's and had a wonderful meal. The chocolates and company were amazing! I've found that the french don't really celebrate Valentine's Day. But I was also able to open my present from Chris. It was perfect!
Sunday was also enjoyable. We decided to go to the Musee des Beaux Arts d'Angers. Their permanant collection was actually really vast and enjoyable. But I like museums. I also met more of the "family" Its vacation in France right now so two of the sons were home. Both were nice, but then again I am a border in their house. Currently everyone is gone. Literally. I have the house to myself, and I'm really enjoying it. I can act normal and not have to worry as much. I made myself a delishious dinner. I bought crepes at the store and made them with salami, goat cheese, and aioli. But I accidently bought dessert crepes so there was a nice mix of sweet and salty, which I really enjoyed. For dessert I continued the feast of crepes and made a few with Nutella, which I"m liking more and more. Today the package came from my parents and it was such a nice little surprise. I loved it!
Thats all for now. Pictures:

Hi Kayleigh,
ReplyDeleteThe food sounds to die for! I wish the U.S. would adopt the daily food market shopping method. Oh well..
Sounds like you're having a great time! I will check out the pics later (I'm at work and Siemens blocks Facebook, Flikr, blah, blah...)
Oh yes, Sam and Joey saw your first set of pics and when Joey saw the castle in Angers (sp?), he asked Aunt Joelle if we could go there. Sweet, no?
I've subscribed to your blog!
Love,
Uncle Dan
