Le Fief at Easter


In France, it seems that the Easter Bunny is not responsible for distributing the chocolate eggs, but rather the Bells of St. Peter's in Rome. However the magic happens, there was a garden full of colourful, foil-covered confections at Le Fief when we returned from Church (accompanied by some hurried scurrying about by Irena and Catharine) and we all got more than our fill of chocolate before Easter was over. Not to mention lamb, roast potatoes and champagne.

This year my mother joined us on our yearly pilgrimage to the Limousin to join with Michael, Irena and family. The weather was warm and sunny and felt far more like summer than the beginning of Spring. We all enjoyed as much time as possible being outside at the table or taking walks on the surrounding lanes and walkways.

Here are some of the photos I took and a slideshow of our weekend.
