I recently renewed my 10-Year U.S. passport in France & this was possibly the easiest administrative thing I have done in my six years living here. Not only was it simple, it was actually much faster than I expected. Even with a small photo issue, I had my passport back in a little over a month. The application is done via the U.S....

Our new house has what we call a "mare" (a small pond) on the property. I did tell my husband I wanted a mare when discussing our future home purchase, knowing full well that they are hard to come by and would likely accompany a property out of our price range.

For some reason, the end of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory comes to mind. Somehow I feel this applies here. Purchasing a home feels like an absolute state of reverie sometimes.
