Dreaming of France -- Still an Icon



Please join this weekly meme. Grab a copy of the photo above and link back to An Accidental Blog. Share with the rest of us your passion for France. Did you read a good book set in France? See a movie? Take a photo in France? Have an adventure? Eat a fabulous meal or even just a pastry? Or if you're in France now, go ahead and lord it over the rest of us. We can take it.
Maybe we can all satisfy our yearnings for France, until we get there again.
My youngest son returned home from France Sunday evening, exhausted as he showed me his array of photos.
"Which should I use for my blog?" I asked him.
He chose the one below, which he considered the best picture he took on his trip.
I'm excited to show you some of the others too though, including some panoramic views he took. Maybe next week.

Hi, Paulina -- I think you son has a wonderful eye! I'll have to check out some of the links. I can't seem to get my act together to do a weekly French post, but I sure enjoy visiting yours!

Paulita, I just finished reading and reviewing The Summer of France. Here is MY REVIEW OF “THE SUMMER OF FRANCE”

I also reviewed it on Amazon and Goodreads. Thanks for the luscious, exciting read.

Laurel-Rain Snow ... loved your review. Every time a read a review of the book I get to relive it through another set of eyes, but your review put words to my reading. Thanks for sharing !
