Crusty days

The days go fast full of sun, thunderstorms and white flour. Flo is the bread maker. Her boulangerie is called Pain et Merveilles with dragon spitting out the flames. She makes her bread with natural levain, tenders it with hands and bakes it in the wood heated oven. Sorry, Dragon flame heated oven. Merveilleux.
We started before the sunrise and continued until late afternoon with the sun rays breaking in through the window shades. With little tea and reading pauses, all white, with sticky fingers we made 150kg of 7 different types of bread.
That smell and sound of cracking hot bread. I felt like being in the different world covered in white magic dust.

Old house

I have something for old houses, cracking floor, smelly wood, old fashioned patterns, rusty keys, yellow paged books.
This house has been my home for a week. It is almost falling apart from the outside, but is reconstructed from inside (some people do things inverse). It stands on top of the hill and is blessed with beautiful sun rises and sunsets, chain of the mountains, forest and fields around. You never need curtains since there are no neighbours, tree leaves and sky decorate your windows.

Eat local - eat good.

LE RESTAURANT "LES CHENES"

  Cold carrot and melon soup with the drop of casis.

Mousse chocolate

Once again proven: local food restaurants - best restaurants.

I was lucky to stay in the farm of the cheese J-B NAVARON on top of the hill in my beloved Auvergne region. This farm has been making cheese for 15 years and has been supplying one of the best local restaurants with their fromage de chevre. Restaurant is known for fresh and local products bought as much as possible from local producers.
