Lucie turned 13 last week, and on Saturday, we celebrated with a lunch. Early in the morning, Bruno and I went to the neighborhood organic market. It was a really beautiful day out. We walked through the park next to the Seine with the dog, enjoying the early sun, and all the wonderful things at the market. Sorry there are no photos of that, but I don't think the vendors really like it when you take pictures. I picked out a hoard of flowers to make Lucie a bouquet, which turned into two bouquets, because my eyes were a bit bigger than my vases. Then we clamored everything home, and the children were awake, and fighting, and we cooked, and everyone had a generally marvelous time. Somehow, I missed getting a photo of the birthday girl, but anyways, you get a look at a traditional French lunch. And thanks to my friend Eralda and her blog, The Split Pea, for the inspiration of close-up food photography. I need a better camera... Enjoy! ... I sure did...
What a lovely lunch. So sweet of you with the flowers, and I love love love your outfit.
