Living in Normandy I had a blog some time ago and decided to create this one to continue the adventure with you through visits of special spots in Normandy and my hobbies DIY and home decoration. Hope to begin a new adventure with you!

A good rainy day!
Today, for a long time it is a rainy day, good for Nature!
The temperature in the morning begins to go down 12 C
But i don’t complain as i like Autumn best!
What did i do today?
As I did all the housework yesterday, today I relax!
This morning I did some watercolour which is very relaxing then I had a quick lunch and a coffee with a rose and a lemon loukoum. I love rose loukoum it is so tasty.
One of my husband’s patients went on holiday to Greece and brought us olive oil, olives, almond.biscuits and loukoums! So generous!
This is my interpretation.
It is not quite finished and I changed the colours I thought pastel colours would be nice with the shop .

Daily life.
Today, is not a good day… the boiler has a problem and is out of order. It’s only a four year old boiler and I did the yearly clean and control in June! They are coming this afternoon.
The weather is cooler, but as we hardly had winter there is a wasps invasion ! It is difficult to to open a door or a window. The whole garden is very dry because of no rain but fortunately the rain is arriving tomorrow tomorrow for at least the rest of the week.
This week was Maxime’s first day of school alter nursery.
He goes to aBritish school so he has to wear a uniform !
He is happy to go to school!
These are the news.
I am reading and sorting out the rooms, yesterday I gave vintage items to have less dusting to do!
Let me show you my new bike 😂 as I still have a problem with my right foot I don’t have the choice if I want to walk outside! I chose it with a seat so I can rest when it becomes painful. I’ll take it on holiday because I like to walk.
No choice!but I’ll be okay !
Thank you for visiting!

A relaxed weekend by the sea
This is a view a little further on the coast after Dieppe.
We also relaxed on the beach where you can borrow a book and read by the sea.
This is the Canadian second WWar monument
The Scottish monument
And US one. They are all along the promenade to “remember”
Then we had one of our lunch outside, “Good food”
I had my favourite sweet! Milk chocolate shell, white chocolate big pearl with vanilla cream inside…SO Good!
