Avignon, The Next Morning
I’m taking a break from the flu, to bring you this next installment of my birthday weekend in Avignon (Yes, I know it was four weeks ago, just go with it please. And if you missed part one, click here). Please excuse any typos, grammatical errors, and general lack of pizazz. I’m full of germs and…

hmmm
{I don’t have anymore apples to give you!} I interrupt this regularly scheduled program of ‘my birthday weekend in Avignon’ to bring you these snippets of my life here lately in The LPV. ++ See that pretty brown guy up there? That’s my new buddy Aero, he belongs to my friend Martine (Martine is from Ireland…

Avignon, The First Night
After our afternoon in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, we scurried down to Avignon and checked into the hotel (I always stay in the same hotel in Avignon… it’s a hop, skip, and a jump from a pub, on the same street as Zara and H&M, and only a few minutes walk from The Palais des Papes… in short, it’s…

A Princess in Châteauneuf-du-Pape
The Princess I’m referring to in the post title is me (obviously, but I’m guessing you knew that already). When The London’s arrived in The LPV before our trip to Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Avignon, Mrs. London presented me with a tiara for the weekend, because she knows that everyone should be treated like royalty on their birthday…

Toulon: Part Deux
{for another super cute photo of Fifty and Napoleon’s road trip click here} When we last left off our weekend in Toulon with Brother-in-Law and Child Bride at Mr. & Mrs. London’s house, Brother-in-Law was sitting on an office chair at the top of a steep driveway wearing a Hello Kitty mask. But before that happened,…

La Saint-Valentin
source Happy Valentine’s Day my lovely, love loves! How are we this morning/ afternoon/ evening? Me… feeling full of l’amour surprised The Husband with breakfast this morning… heart-shaped eggs in a basket (like in Carey’s photo above, but not nearly as pretty) and a big ol’ cuppa Barry’s Tea. And as soon as I hit…

This is what’s happening… I want to post Toulon Part Deux, and show you what happened with Brother-in-Law, the office chair, and the Hello Kitty mask, but I’m waiting for Mr. London to send me something that is absolutely vital to the post (trust me on this one), and as soon as Mrs. London can…

I'm baaaack!
C’est moi! I’m back in The LPV after my whirlwind trip to Dublin, and since my return this weekend, I have already had a visit with Mrs. London (with The Husband and Fifty in tow of course), toasted Champagne with Papa and his wife, watched France lose to Wales (Philippe Saint-André – you and me…

surprise!
{last Saturday night} Coucou! Well here it is… a little after 7AM on my birthday morning. I’m sipping my tea and fresh off of the phone with my mother after her annual rendition of ♫ Happy Birthday ♪, and while I should be recovering from my wonderful weekend living in up in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Avignon, and telling you all…

Dieu Merci, C'est Vendredi
{That means, T.G.I.F. but in French. And since it’s French, it’s a little backwards. Technically it says, “God thanks, it’s Friday.” But that’s OK, because it’s all about the sentiment.} It’s Friday my friends! And if that wasn’t swish enough already, today I’m heading to one of my favorite cities in all of the land…
It's Me, Sara Louise
