Remember that café I told you about Apple Pie? Where I had an incredible organic Welsh Rarebit? So cheers to Lisa at Apple Pie for making the best pumpkin. Pie and bringing some American Thanksgiving to France.

Ma Vie est Belle. Friday, September 30. The way lunch should be. In true Verrill fashion, my cousin Gordon emailed me two days ago briefly saying what he was up to and finishing it with "so can I come to Rennes this weekend? A quick email to my roommate later to announce his arrival and his plane ticket was bought! He arrived exhausted and hungry and so I did what made the most sense: feed him. We hopped over to my favorite tartine place open all day (even on Sundays! And that's how it's done. Especially...

There are 38 of them, and I saw them all together for the last time, this week so I couldn't help being the cheesy TA that just HAS to take a picture. So, voilà:. Small church on Ile-Aux-Moines.

Ma Vie est Belle. Friday, December 3. It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas! It has definitely gotten cold here, and it snows close to everyday so I thought I would warm up with some tea and do a little update. So I walked around with some friends and admired the quaintness of it all. Our beautiful, fresh, farm turkey. I guess you can't get fresher than that! Pumpkin pie, so one has to find a real pumpkin and purée . intense no? And don't forget dessert . In other news . Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Ma Vie est Belle. Monday, January 31. I just had an absolutely wonderful visit with my grandmother from New York! We spent about 3 days and 4 night visiting Rennes and feasting.

Hopefully that gives you some indication of what we do here in Rennes . Opera House in Rennes. My classes were cancelled on Monday so I went ...

http://emmabverrill.blogspot.com/2012/05/spring-things.html
Ma Vie est Belle. Wednesday, May 2. I can't believe the last time I wrote my family was here. It is May already! After a beautiful March, we had the worst weather in April - complete with daily rain, hail, wind, and the need to wear Uggs (like, what? Finally yesterday, May Day, the sun came out and it did not disappoint. So I'm celebrating the sunshine by writing about all of the wonderful spring things that have been happening since my last post. In Saint Lô. Built in the late 1800s the haras. That week...

http://emmabverrill.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Ma Vie est Belle. Saturday, March 31. My last post I talked about Eastern Europe, traveling, and the cold. My life at the moment could not be more different: I haven't left Rennes in over a month, I have had some pretty important visitors, and the weather has been painfully perfect. For the past two weeks we have nothing but sunshine and summer weather meaning drinks outside, a sunburn and lots of park time. Ok so not really having to do with my parents visit, but i made. To explain how good they were.

Ma Vie est Belle: February 2012

Ma Vie est Belle. Wednesday, February 29. Saturday early afternoon I arrived in Budapest . I rented another apartment from airbnb that worked out perfectly with these two goons . Helen and Lindsay studied abroad with me in Rennes and are now assistants in/around Toulouse in the south. All three of us were coming from another trip, so we were equally as exhausted and broke which ended up making for a WONDERFUL little séjour in Budapest. Two things you should know:. Who lost their lives in the holocaust.
