Sleeping Beauty…

(Source: ZZZOe)

Hello Friends!

Some news from our Bandit! He is doing well, but we don’t sleep very well and we begin to be tired 😴 
Tomorrow it’s Labour Day and a bank holiday so we will have a long weekend to rest.
As you can see Bandit is resting he has special food and goes out in the garden a little.



 Look at William! He is now two and can get out of his bed by himself and… he gets up at 4 AM and I think he must play a little then fall  asleep on the carpet until 6! I would like to be able to sleep 💤 like him 😂 

Today, we are having a nice sunny day but for the long weekend rain and thunderstorm.⛈️ 
I hope you will have a nice weather for the weekend!
Take care!

Pink, blue, purple and white!

Hello Friends,
Before I start cooking and baking for the weekend, I went out in the garden with Bandit.
All week the weather was cold and rainy so I did cleaning, laundry … inside and I did not see the Rhododendron in full bloom! I was looking many times and there was nothing, so surprise when I went to have a look in their corner of the garden! The Azalea will soon be all bright pink!

I love pink!

Apple trees flowers.
This bush is at the garden entrance with a white Hydrangea and mock orange bush ( not sure of the name) it is all white and has a very nice smell. It will be soon blooming with the lilacs . ( don’t remember the name of this bush on the picture ?)


I live Wisterias!
So romantic!
We call it “Mary’s heart”


 The peonies take time to be in full bloom, due to bad and cold weather.

Well I have better go and cook! And will visit your blogs in between! I wish you a lovely weekend!

Giverny and children painting exhibition .

Hello Friends !


After the very windy week, it is back to normal and last week I heard on our local radio that this weekend was the re opening of Giverny ´si painting museum.

We left early as we had one hour drive any arrived to the opening of the museum. I did not know it was free on the re opening day. The subject was children and I was very interested by these paintings, SO beautiful !

I think paintings with flowers match well together.

Then we decided to visit Monet’s garden as we always do two or three times a year. It did not rain and the garden was awakening, tulips starting to bloom…but it was very pleasant to visit the garden and to meet people from all over the world. After covid foreign visitors are back, many Americans, South Americans , Europeans  and lots of people from Paris, but very few from our département.

Then we had our lunch outside ( by 7 degrees C) but we enjoyed our meal. After our meal we went on Monet’s tombstone which is very close to his house.

I did some shopping ( I will show you my finds on Monday’s post)

We had a very nice day and I have enjoyed the view of beauty.



I love this beautiful painting























































 Hope you enjoy the visit!
