Treats, for food gourmandises. Delicacies). For a visual feast, you can’t beat France’s marchés. Markets)—and Monet’s Garden and the Petit Palais, but they deserve blog posts of their own.

Saturday, April 26, 2014. Review: First French Essais: Venturing into Writing, Marriage, and France. I have subscribed to and enjoyed Kristin’s blog for several years.

For car) that often don’t show up in textbooks or even dictionaries. I believe First French Essais. Means the mother-in-law at least. Is an enjoyable ...

Friday, March 13, 2015. Reviews of two Iris Murdoch books. My bow to Saint Patrick's Day this year was to read Iris Murdoch, whom I'd never read. I still may don green.

I enjoyed the way Murdoch revealed so much with dialogue. And I think most readers could identify with Yvonne’s dilemma. Iris Murdoch’s suspenseful novel, The Bell. Shows s...

Saturday, February 28, 2015. Book review, The Noticer. If you’re looking for a small dose of timeless wisdom loosely fashioned into a story, you might enjoy The Noticer. In some cases, the rejuvenating perspective comes from illuminating the universality of obstacles. In other cases, Jones shares the benefits of compassion and a long view of integrity. Sometimes he asks, What if you did this instead of that? To enjoy The Noticer. Thursday, February 19, 2015. Recently, our bible study facilitator finished...

Tuesday, May 27, 2014. This morning I was in Paris . But what I most. Want to remember in my I was in Paris this morning. Dream is my French friend who spent frustrating hours of her vacation trying in vain to schedule a taxi for me; the many helpful security and hospitality personnel at train stations and the airport; and the friendly Americans on the plane who told their Paris horror stories with humor and c’est la vie. Yesterday I was in Paris. Labels: Charles De Gaulle Airport. Wednesday, May 21, 2014.
