The French believe in the culture of pleasure
and embrace all the things that make life so delicious.
Dressing with style, bien sur, but also the art of undressing is tres important!
There's the pleasure of lovely lacy lingerie and delicate underthings.Here, in the southwest (Toulouse and now the little village of Auvillar) where I am visitng--everyone loves the foie gras.
In Paris, I enjoyed a few macarons from Lauderee. So colorful! (My favorite is the pistachio.)
However, in the petit ville of Auvillar, we had some lovely macarons avec our espresso at the grand
fete for VCCA/Auvillar! (More on that soon).
Oh, the fresh air--biking everywhere--c'est tres francaise and very pleasurable.
Fashion and the savoir faire is all about pleasure.
And love is true pleasure. Look how art inspires passion in the Tuilleries!
Ah, l'amour! Bonjour, love!
Looks very sensuous !

Bonjour, Leslie--Yes, I had a wonderful time with Cheryl and John! So much fun! And Amy, I thought of you so much while there and all the writer-girls from Auvillar and the bad cold--and your fabulous story all about it! And dear 34-year old reader from Hungary--I am honored that you've written to me. Are you reading the book in English? I do believe my first book "French Women Don't Sleep Alone" has been released in Hungary. Merci to all of you gorgeous femmes! xo Jamie
