When one of my long-time friends (notice I didn’t say “old”) came to visit in Uzes, she’d say: “That’s just so French!”
It became a favorite sayiing to the two of us during her stay. Here are ten things that say “that’s just so French” to me. See if you agree!
#1
French Bo Bo Fashions
#2
Cheese, of course!
#3
“Le pot” (a slender wine bottle with a thick bottom) and lace curtains
#4
Beaujolais Nouveau
#5
Market Lady with flowered hat and scarf
#6
Escargots
#7
Lavender everywhere!
#8
Cats on windowsills
#9
Creme Fraiche
#10
La Vie En Rose

Why is crème fraîche so delicious?!
True! How would you describe it? I can’t!
I’ve eater escargot but they do kind of weird me out. Now, on the other hand, La Vie En Rose looks like a good reason to visit France.
She is a fabulous local songstress in Uzes. You must visit!
You’ve hit just about all my favorite things. Although I quit smoking almost 40 years ago, I still have the urge to pick one up when I’m in France. Despite all the Défense de Fumer, they still love their cigarettes.
How are the French lessons coming?
French lessons are just that… Lessons! So hard to get to it!
Don’t get discouraged. You can do this!!
I know. I just need to try harder. Thanks for the encouragement!
Not too sure about the snails, but French life looks great in all other respects ….
Oh, you should try them. Anything with that much garlic and olive oil has to be good!
WONDERFUL–wish we were there now!!!
Me too! Can’t wait to get back!
