At last, on August 15th…I finally can sit down and write about July. But first, the playlist. As eclectic as I am 💙 And second, a photo of a Cassoulet. Because I love Cassoulet. The first 15 days of the month are now blurry to me. I remember receiving my aunt from London and trying her delicious rhubarb cooked in a slightly sweet syrup, but I probably don’t remember anything else. Well, I’m lying, we…

Well, except for the Guinness, my Christmas are pretty much those things: rain, butter, potatoes and music. And as far as music is concerned, I couldn’t be happier. This year was a bit different from others. We always take part in a benefic event on Christmas eve to raise…
