Segonzac is a beautiful little village in the Charente area, right in
Cognac country. Yes!!!! One of my favorites drinks!!!
It is said that the Cognac was invented in Segonzac in the early XVII
century by Chevalier de la Croix Maron.
The Chambres d’Hôtes = B&B where
I am house sitting is beautiful and the two cats I am taking care of are
gorgeous, one of them is really cuddly, she seats on my lap in the evenings
while I watch TV and sleeps with me every night. The other one only meows at me
when he wants to go out or wants to be fed, or wants something. There are also
5 chickens that keep on laying eggs; I don’t know what else to do with all
these eggs!!!
Today when I got up I saw the daffodils blooming underneath the blooming
cherry blossoms making me feel glad that spring is in the air!
As I went out to let the chickens out, I realized how cold and windy it
was, so the good feeling about spring dissipated.
To celebrate the beautiful day that now I would be watching through the
windows , I had a typical French breakfast: croissant, baguette with butter and
jam and a latte.
For lunch I had one of my favorites: veal cutlets and a lettuce and
tomato salad with another piece of baguette. As long as I was not going out due
to the weather, as might as well cook, so I also made vanilla pudding and
chocolate mousse.
Then a nice walk in place (because now it is raining too) to lose some
of the weight I am gaining by all the delicious French foods I am eating.
Now, in my mind, because I walk and exercise I feel that I can eat more
because I walk and exercise. This is such a vicious circle, I will never lose
the weigh. But it doesn’t matter, I am
happy.
