Sounds like an awesome open air market and a yummy lunch. You and your daughters must be having the time of your lives!

Cooking at our rented houses with fresh ingredients makes me feel so local!<br /><br />One of my favorite in the bastide town of Eymet has the most hilarious ladies' underwear booth. The owner tacks up HUGE white cotton woman's panties--5+ feet wide at least--over the entrance and the village women root through bins of everything from old fashioned white cotton bras to Frederick's of Hollywood style lingerie.Lark Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13363455770588651569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2140630815526406811.post-31395073095420002582012-05-16T22:11:12.330-05:002012-05-16T22:11:12.330-05:00He wants to return, too, Sheila.
