Collioure, a Charming Seaside Town
2026-01-06 11:00 UTC by Corey

Sacha had a meeting near Collioure, a seaside town I wanted to visit, so I hopped in the car and went along with him. It was nearly a five-hour drive, we talked the entire way—about everything and nothing, without ever running out of words.

When we arrived, the town’s facades dot the narrow streets- pinks, oranges, and yellows, set against...

Isle sur la Sorgue Antiquing
2026-01-05 11:00 UTC by Corey

I’ve been antiquing for over 35 years in France.

French ABC’s Children’s Book 1931

Without looking for a children’s book at all, I found a 1931 French alphabet book at the brocante.

I thought it would be darling to take the pages apart and frame them for a child’s room. I never did. I have trouble cutting books—old paper, fabric, lace, ribbon-

Bringing in the New Year
2026-01-01 11:00 UTC by Corey

Should old friendships be forgotten
And never remembered?
Should old friendships be forgotten
And long ago times?

You’ll treat me to a drink, my friend,
And I will treat you too;
And we’ll share a cup of kindness still
For days of long ago.
