The Patron


'Today's restaurant is theatre on a grand scale' - Marian Burros


This was taken in mid-December at l'Occitan, a restaurant opposite the market. It's so long since we had sun it's hard to remember...

Ceci a été pris à la mi-Décembre à l'Occitan, un restaurant en face du marché. Il y a si longtemps que nous n'avons pas eu de soleil, qu' il est difficile de se souvenir de lui...

    I feel so sorry for you Jilly. The weather over there has been very unkind to you. My Brother was in Airole for Christmas and said how miserable it had been. Roll on spring so we can return to the beautiful azure blue.

    Oh, Jilly, I love this. I want to learn each person's story.

    This portrait is full of noisy activity... pure poetry! I adore le patron and you have captured the moment perfectly...

    I agree Jilly, we've had very little sun in the past three weeks.

    Another grey day today and not much hope for tomorrow...
