2 Months!


So...we start a blog and then don't write. We haven't completely missed the point. Life has just been unexpectedly full lately.

Yesterday marked two months since that beautiful day in August when we were married.  What a busy two months - spread over three continents, changing lodgings eight times to finally settle into our little Parisian apartment.

After the sunny skies of Colorado and Morocco, the Parisian gray that seems to permeate here was a bit difficult. However, today (and the rest of the week!) promise to give us a taste of some sunny fall weather, and we will enjoy it.

The messy 'before' picture
What better way to celebrate mid a busy week than with a nice salmon dinner finished by pie? I had been wanting to try to the single-crust plum and apple pie from the blog Smitten Kitchen which I enjoy reading. We had never tried plums in pies before, but it was delicious! I was pressed for time and didn't have time to chill the crust and thus ended up dolloping it in a haphazard mess all over the pie. It still turned out beautifully (if a little funny)!

  1. This looks delectable! And I love Smitten Kitchen. I am so glad you are going to be getting a little sunshine. The rain finally hit here :/ Feels fallish though.
    PS I've been listening to some old time Georges Brassens and it is making me feel so very Frenchy.. :)
