Link love: Emme Bakes & Remodelista
Two exciting new bright spots on the dusty ol' internets this week:
- My friend Erin Madorsky's new baked goods company, Emme Bakes, website is live. I did the smorgasbord picture. Who doesn't love a smorgasbord?
- Walden was featured on Remodelista.

to the market
Yesterday I went to the next town, Nogent-sur-Seine with a few other folks from Camac for the market on Saturday mornings. It is 2011 everywhere so there is a lot of cheap clothing and shoes from China, but still the old life of France exists, especially with the fromagerie et le biscuiterie et le charcuterie. You know I bought some special cheese.
Then we went to Creperie Vanille in Nogent for lunch! So good.
And Amitla played piano a bit for us after dinner later.
Food is very important to me. I don't understand when people don't care what they eat or take no interest in making a meal. So I suppose France is a pretty good place to be.

Obras
My time at Obras is over, for now. I will surely return. It is a bittersweet leave taking, as many are, because the joy of so many new friends and a strong feeling of accomplishment as well as just plain old reluctance to go. I have now dragged my monster suitcase to the Algarve for a few days of sun! There are tourists from many nations here, but mostly pasty Brits. I blend right in.
random pictures from my time at Obras:
beautiful Erika Dahlen in her studio. She is like the Girl with the Pearl Earring and a great painter from Stockholm, Sweden
We did a lot of cooking for big long delicious shared dinners. I made a crepe gâteau with quince paste.
And one night we grilled lots of seafood, including sardines from Luis! This is what they mean when they say sardines in Portugal!
