What to do when there is another storm…

 Hello friends,

Today, we’re having another storm and rain ☔️!
We should have been to Honfleur( for those who don’t know  the place it’s a very special  fishing village on the coast in Normandy) tomorrow, but an umbrella with the wind is a bit risky… so we give up the idea. Since October we had about 4 or 5 storms, so we are living inside most of the  time.
This is the tourist office link if you want to see what it looks like.
During all the month of January, we have the “galette”
Mage kings arrival after Christmas. We eat a special round cake with a   King bean pancake  (which was a bean 🫘 in the past ) and now a porcelain one like the little cakes on my picture. These ones are beautiful coming from a famous pastry in Rouen, so is the crown.👑 
When you find the “fève” you become the king or the queen and must buy another “galette” (cake ) and put the crown on your head!

I continue my practice, before trying some small landscapes.
This morning I went through a lot of “Country Living” magazines to continue my country travel book for my daughter.

Our daughter is coming to have lunch on Sunday, so we can talk about her tour of Europe in May, it will be a very interesting day.
I wish you a quiet weekend!

  3. There have been a lot of storms in Europe and the UK this winter. Here January has been very calm so far.
    I have not been to Honfleur, but it sounds like a charming place. I have a lot of Country Living magazines, too. They are beautiful publications. Stay safe and cozy indoors.
