I found an old chalkboard. Wrote out today’s menu. Minty asks me everyday and every hour what’s for breakfast/lunch/gouter/dinner? So I posted it on the found chalkboard.
What’s “gouter,” you ask? ( pronounced “goo-tay”). It’s a 4pm snack they do here in France. Usually it’s a bit of bread with some chocolate of some description or yogurt or apple sauce. I can never remember how to spell it, so I call it “G-tay.”
Zelie saw the menu, saw that Snicker bar was for gouter and wasn’t impressed. You see lunch was up next. She wanted gouter now. “No,” I say, “lunch first.” Then, she erased the menu. Except for gouter. Checkmate.

Still love your kids – summer aye!! Is it still desperately hot and dry there?
yes! Hot and dry. But, there is a nice breeze and occasional thunder storms so the grass is green. very cool.
You are so far away, but your blog helps me to feel close to you and your family. Thank you for the laughs and lessons.
very kid focused at the moment. they are crazy!
So much for chalk! I’d want the Snickers, too.

Looks like those kids are out of control.
exploring children, refined adults.
