Bruges Kid Free!
The kids were invited to spend the weekend with Lydie, our old au pair, in Lille. We had to take them on the train so we decided to come along and profiter from the rare weekend sans enfants.

I'm back!
Back from my travels, my break from family and construction! I'll do a proper post soon, but this is just to document my latest blog post on Piedmont and the wonderful food there.

Interesting article posted by wlotus on +-sized fashion. I still can't figure out why it is so hard to by good looking clothes in the sizes we actually wear! All those beautiful clothes in sizes that only a 14 year old can wear! What 14 year old has the dough to buy them??
Leave a comment 1Camera question....
I had an Olympus PEN which I was enjoying very much - great photos and great size/weight for packing along. I had ONE thing that bothered me about the camera and would love some feedback as it's now gone and will need to be replaced at some point. I use the camera a lot for indoor flashless pics in the evening. No matter what I did with ISO etc, ( Read more... )
