I am preparing to leave for a trip to Provence and the Languedoc-Roussillon regions of France for some buying and research. My faithful little Treo will be joining me on the trip and it along with a wireless keyboard should enable me to do some regular blog entries. I'm looking forward to sharing my adventures among the vineyards and lavender fields.
The first house we will be renting is located in a vineyard in Rhone country... this area is also favored for its olives and mushrooms and it is just a hop from Montelimar (where nougat is made). There should be all sorts of delicious items to discover. We will make regular visits to the markets and hopefully find some new products for the Splendid Palate website.
The second house will be in the heart of the Luberon... lavender country. From there we will seek out lavender honeys, olive oils, confitures, linens, gifts and new lavender products.
I will be taking my two year old daughter on this trip. Perhaps her being with me will inspire different kinds of finds or a few little treasures for the children!
I hope you will join me on my journey and check in. Ã bientot
