Had fun preparing lunch for Trinidad and Johan from Atelier de Cmpagne to arrive today, these boys have been on the road for a little while now, so I thought they needed some home cooking and vitamins.
I'm so glad the sun has come out too!
I'll let you know how it goes
OK So here's the update,: it's official - Trinidad and Johann are totally charming, and it was a delight to meet them and spend a couple of hours over lunch together.
What you are not going to believe is that I forgot to take any pictures of them here - no really!!! I was so caught up chatting, questions flying back and forth, "and have you seen ...?"; "and do you know ...?"; and "don't you love it when ...?"
Such a shame they couldn't stay for longer
Next time they come I shall definitely take pics, I promise!
