To find French linen..

I need to fill my armoirs again..

so we  need to do Brocantes, vide greniers

village markets and visit  private dealers

 who source and supply  me.

visit little villages

through narrow roads

 Halt for lunch..

because in France everyone stops whatever they do..for dejeuner

admire the  beautiful French architecture

windows adorned  with dentelle

I simply cannot get enough 

of the old windows and doors, 

 the stone walls and overgrown gardens 

This will be the view when we wake up..

The Loire river right outside our window

 I can take my morning coffee, walk out the door, and sit here on the banks to start the day...

Hard to believe

 it is already 9 months since we were here last

View from outdoor cave towards back of Maison

This will be our backyard..

at our dear friend's  Maison in the Loire Valley.

 We are so looking forward to stay here again

 while they are living their dream

 on their farm in the Dordogne

where they spend their summers..

through to the kitchen

(Loire Maison)

Up the road to the village..

I will walk past this door every morning 

on my way to the boulangerie

door to a cave-turned into a home, 

one of many in this area

When the clock strikes 6 next Sunday the 27th 

we will be off to France

to find what we need to fill the armoirs

and share at my brocante events
