I can’t answer any of your questions Margo, but it’s so lovely to see you in the throes of your passion!

I can’t help myself I wonder in detail about people and their lives like that too, on postcards, on their front porches, passing them in cars, standing on street corners.

But I love old vintage photographs and art like that. I would be immersed too.

There are also literally thousands of different costumes and headdresses in France. They differed town from town and not just regionally. When Francois was a boy, little old ladies were still wearing traditional garb to church and on speciak occasions. It’s unfortunately all disappeared. There are are few magnificent costume museums in Alsace and Brittany though!

This reminds me that the very first time I visited your blog you were talking about a postcard!Then you used to do a shopping thing on Saturdays, right? Ok, off track here.

I studied that word up there and I can’t come up with a thing! I find her rather intriguing though!

Tendency to get lost in activities is the hallmark of my own OCD tendencies… Maybe I’ll invest in a timer.
