adventures of an american housewife in the south of france
Countdown: 2 Weeks
On Monday I looked around our apartment, at the stacks of built but empty boxes, the piles of things we want to get rid of, and stacks of books and clothes that needed to be packed, and I started to freak out. It all seemed really overwhelming. Also, 2 strange men had been in my apartment for the last 5 days repairing the damage caused by a flood in my upstairs neighbor's kitchen that happened a year ago. Everything from that bathroom had to be removed, our shower dismantled, and Ramona's changing area temporarily relocated to the coffee table. My home was in such utter chaos that it made my brain hurt and threw me into major panic attack mode. This is not to mention the 4 month growth spurt that has fallen upon this house and left me and Michael vulnerable, sleep deprived zombies who will do just about anything to get Ramona to chill out and take a nap for pete's sake.
Parmentier de joues d'angeau from Les Caves Jean Jaures. Michael called this a mashed potato sandwich.
Tartare de canard
our little lady was a major grump during this lunch!
Verrine Gourmande! Apple and pear with chestnut mousse. It was deeeelicious.
Don't even think about asking for tomatoes right now at Chez Boris!!
Magret de canard
always get dessert.
She was a perfect angel at Chez Boris! (don't mind my nursing cover.)
haute:

New to The Haute Housewife? Thanks for stopping by! This page is a good place to start if you want to...
I can understand this stress… I so do not like the moving stress :/ Bur don’t worry ;)) (and you’ve done a lot already!)
Oh and why were the men strage? Like frightening? :s
Not strange in a scary way, just strange in that they were 2 men hanging out in my house for a week who I could barely communicate with. Ha! They were actually really nice though.
I love this. Ramona is about a month older than my son and he is going through a growth spurt right now. Of course, this is my first week back at work. Good luck!
Oh boy! Hope you are managing to get some sleep! Do babies have a radar to go through these phases at the worst possible times or what? ;) It’s a good thing they’re so cute and loveable!
Oh I so wish I was there to help you out! But you are a strong, intelligent, resourceful woman…you will get through
this!
Can’t wait to see you all soon!! Love you. xoxo
Those duck dishes look delish!
