Mombrier July 25

We planned to go to Cognac today. We got up early and looked outside, the area around us was fogged in! We have not had fog before! Since we are unsure of road conditions on our route and how the fog might figure in, we decided to stay home. Meals, cards, wine, a quiet day. 

Stuart made delicious Thai soup for lunch, with a baguette and coleslaw on the side. He perked up the soup mix with chicken and mushrooms. It was tasty. The breeze was blowing so it felt good to eat the soup. For dinner it was ribs and the rest of the coleslaw. We weren't all that hungry after eating a small charcuterie plate and wine about 7p. Dinner was be after 9p. See how French we are becoming!

Today Stuart showed me another way to use Google Translate. I didn't know I could do this. You can go to the translate app and ask it to use your camera. Then I pointed to the recipe directions in French and it said to take the photo. Then it translated it into English. It is totally amazing to me. Now some of you might be laughing, knowing that possibility for a long time, but I loved learning that!!!
