The above photo and cover image are from our weekend trip to Cancale, when I was living in Paris finishing my book, BRIGHT LIGHTS PARIS. It was such a special trip and I am working on a feature to include where we stayed, ate, shopped, and activities in the area. I highly recommend a trip to the Brittany Coast this summer and hope to visit again soon.
I had a pretty busy week with meetings and work. The highlight was a delicious Nicoise inspired lunch at Benoit Bistro with Atout France and members of their team from the regions of Provence + Côte d’Azur. Stay tuned for an upcoming post sharing regional highlights they shared with us. For now you can read more about Provence HERE.
- This week I shared some details on Disneyland Paris’s 25th Anniversary Celebration which is now underway till the rest of the year. I’m planning to visit in the fall.

- I ran out of time this week to create a Mother’s Day Gift Guide, but you can find some ideas in my Holiday Gift Guide or check out my friend Meghan’s fantastic Mother’s Day Gift Guide. She also just got back from a 2 week trip in France and can’t wait for her posts going up about the trip.
- Keiko has written a fantastic guide to Walt Disney World. She focused mostly on spending the day at the Magic Kingdom and her tips are perfect for a trip with kids. You’ll find so many great tips! I’ll be posting a Disney guide soon that covers more of Epcot and an ‘adult friendly’ visit to WDW. For now, check out my WDW holiday recap favorite WDW Treats feature.
- I was recently introduced to an amazing natural beauty brand, Kypris and so far am seeing amazing results. I will be sharing more details on my favorite products of theirs soon but I definitely recommend their Antioxidant Dew Elixir, Moonlight Catalyst, + 1,000 Roses Hydrating Elixir
- If you’re looking for some great spring reads, look no further than my list of current favorites. I also just received my latest amazon order of a new memoir, Mistakes Were Made (Some in French) which I’ll be starting this weekend. I’ll let you know how it is.
- Recipes I’m dying to try soon: Passionfruit Strawberry Salsa, Strawberry Rhubard Cobbler, + Olive Oil Pound Cake with Roasted Strawberries. I bet you’re wondering what my favorite summer fruit is? 🙂
What are you all up to this weekend?
