Ma Fête des Mères – A French Mother’s day –
in 13 shots.
by French Girl in Seattle
There was a great restaurant, with architectural details imported from France…
There was delicious French fare with a Northwest twist…
There was a lively outdoor market, complete with a crêpe vendor…
There were Boutiques with a French flavor…
There were artisans et artistes…
There was a French mom, and her American-born son…
Good times.
This was ma Fête des Mères, a French Mother’s Day.
I hope yours was fantastique, too!
A bientôt.

I ALWAYS enjoy your mother’s comments and your brother’s too – but he has been rather silent of late…

Just popped by to say ‘Bonjour Véronique!’ I see that we have both taken a little break from blogging although after a holiday and a busy few weeks I am slowly getting back into a routine! I can see that this was the perfect Mother’s Day celebration for you and I certainly would have enjoyed all these French goodies. I think it’s time to book a little weekend en France!
A bientôt!
