Continue Reading The one where we go to NimesDave had a 4-day weekend in honor of All Saints and All Souls Days, so we decided to take some day trips to visit some of the places close by that we’d been wanting to see.

Continue Reading 30-Day Photo Challenge: Gratitude ~ Day 2Dave and I went exploring and hopped the train to Nimes this afternoon. The Jardin de la Fontaine was awesome.

Continue Reading Another Pinterest WinIf there is anything this living abroad thing has taught reinforced in me, it’s that I am a planner. Now that we’re on the “back to being a student” budget, I like to make extra sure that we’re maximizing our dinner menus; as in, can two dishes this week use the same ingredient? Great, then…

Continue Reading VictoryEarlier this week, when we were recovering from a brief rainstorm, I got a hankering for a pot of Grandma Joan’s beans. So I emailed her and got the recipe.
