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!
Make crumbs and freeze them for use later. Make croutons for your soup. I love bread and butter pudding but DH doesn't so it isn't something I make. Carol xx
I make breadcrumbs for nut - roasts, which altho' recipes vary are usually about one third ground nuts to two thirds breadcrumbs. Btw, did you know you can make bread-and-butter pudding with stale brioche? I have never tried, but it sounds yummy. Happy day, thrifty friend! xx H

Funny you should ask I just made bread pudding for the first time...I can't wait to try it!!
Bread and butter pudding too!
I first had eggy bread when I was a Girl guide, and still make it occasionally.
Mmmm...we have always called this French toast...and it's my all time favorite breakfast. You've made me hungry for it. ; )
