I'm a happily married mum of two boys, aged 17 and 19, and as a family we moved to France eleven years ago. My husband works for a French company, I teach English to French people aged 6 - 60, and English reading and writing to the English-speaking children of the area. We are part of an English speaking church in Lyon. I love to shop for French vintage lace, fabric and household items, and to combine them with my British and global treasures in interesting ways.
Thanks for coming over to my British-meets-French Vintage blog! Please leave a comment - I love to hear from anyone who takes the time to read my posts, and I try to pop back and visit your blogs whenever I can.

Reality Check
I am not a perfect mother or housewife. There is dog hair under the sofa and the boys eat with their elbows on the table, however much they're nagged. I just assume you'd rather see the pretty stuff!

May flowers
Outdoors... and indoors...
we are enjoying some very pretty flowers this month.
I have a longer post to write for you too, but no time as yet! Thanks for all your visits and comments, though, and your own posts, which I am enjoying.
Oh Floss, what lovely flowers - delightful for any of our landscaping designs! Roses are my favorite flowers - I've even added one to our Sunflower House garden this year, along with a butterfly plant for my senior mom's newest gardening project - to create a butterfly garden. But they've just started so I'm enjoying neighbors and bloggy firends' flowers in the meantime. Thank you for a lovely visit. :) You're in my prayers!

Your flowers are a joy! There is hope yet that I will see mine in my window boxes soon, as our weather seems to have taken a nice turn.
