Salut! I’m Rose.
I’m an American married to a Frenchman living in the countryside of France. I’m here to fill you in on life here, from administrative paperwork to weird customs to underrated places to visit.

New post on the blog about the oh-so-charming Villeneuve-sur-Yonne. The Tour Bonneville was one of my favorite little parts of the trip! So cute and cozy, wish I could take a peek inside!

So close to a new year...
Wonder what 2022 will bring? Maybe a visit to the states? Or perhaps next New Year's my family will be celebrating here with me in France?
What are you looking forward to in '22?

Perhaps you are not celebrating tonight, nor tomorrow, but I wanted to wish you all happy holidays!
Tonight, my husband and I celebrate with his family with a semi-traditional/non-traditional dinner.
Each year I try to bring something a little bizarre (from their perspective) that they have never heard of or tried before. The first year I came (2019), I brought s'mores to make in the chimney, the following year I made Polish kruschiki and this year will be trifles (caramel apple cinnamon & chocolate with salted caramel). I always love making them discover something new and look forward to this year's reaction to my dessert!
