Lindash: I really do try to live that way. You attract what you believe.
I was one time lost in Florence with a friend. We were looking for a restaurant and got mixed up. No one around to ask. She was getting very upset. I finally in exasperation said, "Do you realize how many people in the world right now wish they were lost in Florence?!!" That quieted her down and we ended up finding what turned out to be one of my favorite restaurants.

If you read any of my trip reports it is the same place where one of my favorite writers, MFK Fisher both had our first truite bleu and a dish hard to find at any place because the fish must be fresh out of water and immediately cooked, that is why the twisted body and bleu color. It it doesn't look twisted, it's not the real thing.

Ok, there are many books, the one of the moulin is in "Long ago in France"
that's my favorite and how I started eating alone many years ago at Train Bleu because she wrote about it in terms I could relate to in "As they were."
"Two towns in Provence" deals with Marseille and Aix and I love the "Boss Dog"again in Provence and then there's one about the years in Lyon.
and so many more books but these are my favorites.

Cigale,
I hope those are included in the volume I have...mine is the 50th Anniversary Edition...combines lots of her work I guess.. I bought it to take on vacation to the Cape this summer, but I know it won't last until then..I am already peeking ...

Just to tell we're going to make our Dijon GTG! 
But girls let me tell you that as soon as you get off the train, you'll have to speak French ; I can't speak English. Read and write only! ;-)
mimi, Avallon is a bit too far from Dijon to go just for dinner, but it would be funny to go there as a client after having worked there in 92!
Maybe I should try to convince DH to leave the kids and have a nice ride together with a night somewhere (Hotel de la poste is over my budget!)and so we could meet... I loved the area!
No chance to see you in Dijon?
