Bea, I discovered your blog several months ago and it is still the most beautiful inspiring thing I read. The kitchen was once a foreign place to me, but I started spending more time there soon after discovering this site and now my kitchen is my absolute favorite place to be! I’m even starting my own food blog to document my culinary experiences and discoveries. I only hope that someday my blog can be as lovely as this. I only just stumbled across this post while wondering what to bake this afternoon. As a hopeless francophile with a desperate wish to move to France, I must say that these photos look like heaven to me. Perfection. Love it. Thank you for this post and this lovely site!

Hello – I hope you are well. I found your post and pictures so inspiring that i have named an upcoming fragrance in my collection “Lulu in Provence” after your exquisite post. The fragrance is totally inspired by your redcurrant tarts! Although i have designed it with a sandalwood base. i take inspiration from travels and from my childhood trips for my collection and when i saw this post I simply had to remove one of the fragrances in my Rouge line and replace with this beautiful story.
There is already a high profile British Magazine writing about it in their May issue although i am forbidden to say which!

Anyway, i have now followed you on Twitter and thank you for the inspirational post.
