Coffee, Lunch, and Dinners

Over the past week, we’ve had fun with various friends. Last Sunday evening, we had Romain and Dominique for dinner and we played rummy for hours after.  On Monday morning, Alice came for coffee.  That evening, Kelly and Jean-Pierre and Kate and Olivier joined us for dinner in our garden room, with dessert on our balcony.  It was so hot and dry that fete nationale fireworks were cancelled.  On Wednesday, Lesley and Helene joined me for lunch, again in our garden room.  On Thursday we went to La Romieu for pizza with our friend Coralie, and saw our chef/friend Amanda.  Today, Friday, we drove to Toulouse for lunch with my friend, Rebecca.  We ate at La Brasserie Le Capoul, founded in 1927.  We ate inside in the traditional wood paneled dining room and talked for a couple of hours.  We walked a block over to the Capitole and the old Donjon before driving back to Lectoure.  We’ve had a good week!
