,
I am excited. I am excited! (I think an exclamation point is certainly warranted. :) ) So many things are gradually coming together after two months of attention and one is
TSLL French Week. Beginning this Sunday, running through Saturday August 12th, you will be able to stop by the blog and enjoy at least two posts (yes, sometimes more!) full of French-inspired ideas, conversation and insights on the culture that piques our interest.
As a newsletter subscriber, I wanted to give you an exclusive first glance at what
to expect. Three episodes will go live this coming week, each highlighting my conversation with women living in France. Take a look at the line-up below:
As well as the above French-inspired conversations on the podcast, the blog posts will include two giveaways, travel inspiration and ideas for planning the trip of your dreams, a new TSLL recipe, everyday ways of incorporating the love of the French culture into your life and so much more. It has been fun pulling it all together, and I do hope you enjoy.
Another project that has been gradually coming together is the book. Yep, I can
hardly believe we are diving into the editing process this month of TSLL's second book in which we dive deeper into how to live simply luxuriously. Wow! As the process unfolds, I will continue to share details.
And the third project has been the organization of next summer's holiday plans. Yes, as you know I am a planner and come next summer, it will have been five years since I last stepped foot on the terra firma of France. Far too long, but at least I know
when I will see it again. All the reservations have been made and now I get to plan and dream of how to enjoy my time. Due to all of my planning, I have learned so much I look forward to sharing with you this coming week about making travel plans that will ensure a worthwhile and unique trip the next time you are en route to are shared beloved country.
To the newsletter! Two new and scrumptious as well as simple recipes were shared this week, and as I made note in
my IG post of the Caprese Salad, it was hard not to nibble as I snapped the images. So yummy and perfect with fresh summer produce. Due to the high temperatures, I have found myself more indoors and last week I devoured Amazon's new series
The Last Tycoon (well, actually I saved the
last episode for this weekend to prolong the enjoyment). I share more about the raved about series in this week's
This & That, so be sure to have a look.
Wishing you a lovely weekend, and may August be a month of needed rest, leisure and re-energization for a strong start in September. Until next week, I'll see you on the blog.
