I turned 68 yesterday, but I’m celebrating all week! Papa and I went to the Monday night Market in Lectoure for crepes. Everyone sits at long tables, so we joined some friends for a bit. On Tuesday, we had lunch at La Plancha in Castet-Arrouy with friends. Our neighbor is the chef and lunch was delicious!
Wednesday was my birthday! Papa gave me a beautiful translucent pink vase that he bought in a local brocante shop. I had lunch with four friends at L’Atelier D’Auria. I spent the evening talking to each of our children and friends. I had a wonderful day!
After my walk this morning, I took a basket and went to my friend Susan’s house to pick plums. She has a large property, just outside the remparts of Lectoure, with dozens of fruit trees. We taste tested and picked our favorite plums. I made lunch when I got home, with a sheet pan of roasted plums that Papa and I ate with Greek Yogurt and sugared almonds. This evening, Papa and I went to our friend Deirdre’s house for fruit crumble and ice cream. Our friend Abby joined us. What fun to eat dessert for supper!
