I am really giggling right now. You can’t see me but I am.

Règles typographiques
This image is called ‘Règles typographiques’ – typographical rules. It is by Bruno Levy and there’s more right here.
I think it is called ‘Règles typographiques’ because her eyebrows look like beautiful accents.
Hurray! Love tag!
Hollie tagged me to list 6 things that make me happy. My list will be very predictable:
- Christian and Mira (my little family) I love them, we’re together all the time.
- My French-English family back in France (the UK being proudly represented by my brother-in-law David) I love them too, I haven’t seen them in years and I really want to hug them.
- My friends, old and new.
- Being a vegetarian, leaning towards vegan right now.
- Order, cleanliness, the colour white, clean laundry, clean sheets and pyjamas (this is in one bundle because of a coherent theme).
- Speaking French, watching films in French, hearing French spoken, looking at photos of France, reading in French, dreaming in French – all these things make me vibrate on a particular frequency and give me an indescribable feeling of recognition and belonging.
- Can I get one more? Thrifting! I haven’t bought any new clothes (apart from underpants) in over a year. I love it (except I still haven’t found a good pair of trousers in all this time).
I have to pass this on, to the 6 following persons:
*Siobhan (she takes the cake for her blog’s name too!)
*Deb
*Liz
*Pia
*One more, since I went over the list requirements already: Lizzie!
Oh, one more one more: making lists makes me happy.
I’ll stop now.
Phantom film
I know I watched this film but it was at 4 in the morning for some reason. So it’s almost like a phantom memory, where I’m not entirely sure it happened or not.
In my sleep deprived daze, I remember really liking one of the last little episodes, where this American tourist narrates her trip in French with a really pronounced accent. She comments on eating a sandwich and says ‘c’était très bon’. If you want to make me laugh, saying that in French with a pronounced American accent is the way to go.
Christian does it sometimes. He’s awesome.

Every other Tuesday
I get a home delivery of organic vegetables and I kind of look forward to it. I like to open the box and see what I got, and start thinking about what to make.
Highlights from today include: broccoli (yay!)*, Brussel sprouts (yay!)*, courgettes (yay!), and wait a minute, what the hell is that???
That’s right: like the 15 year old little guy at the supermarket checkout, I have come across an unknown vegetable**. Now who to turn to to shed some light on this?
*You’re not getting Punk’ed, I really do like them.
**True story: I had to announce the name of a few things in my basket to the poor bugger.
