Il y a 1,9 million d'années chez la famille Dotcom...
1,9 million years ago in the Dotcom family...
Département : 40 - Les landes Colour/town : Azur shade of blue
Indices / clues : 40ème rugissants - roaring forties - his first job as an apprentice pastry chef - in Lorraine province then he moved to Italy and discover painting! Claude Gellée fût apprenti patissier en Lorraine puis il se rendit en Italie où il découvrit la peinture.
La couleur azur est ainsi nommée d'après la pierre lapis lazuli. Le port "Le Lorrain" sur la côte est de la Martinique était appelé "Grande anse" jusqu'en 1840.
To be honest I have chosen Le Lorrain because I love paintings representing sailboats and his ways to paint light but I had no idea I'll find links to puff pastry, Claude glass and Turner.
Measi's post is not online yet but I want to post this morning. This early evening I will announce the solution for the 6th step of my Tour de France.
Topic(s) for June : Half-year recap: How are you doing with your goals so far this year?
No real plans this year, only having fun with cross stitch, felt, watercolor, wool...
I knew I had to give place to unexpected DIY (as my boat project) and will have to put aside other WIP. I only tried to have some progress on Cuore e Batticuore cross stitch.
The 4th edition of the Tour de France had its start at the end of May and is now on a regular road, two steps a week with a final post on Sundays. I'm already happy to have been able to keep to my schedule.
Can't wait to participate next month to the Wipolympics!
My felt parrot from the 2 D pattern...
Boats made with rosette sausage and cheese bread, "octopuss" knackies, blinis/rillettes oysters, puff pastry/tapenade fish and small burgers with tarama and clayfish "crab legs" with black olive eyes,
some funny sailing theme food for the buffet.
Très belle journée autour du buffet thème poisson partagée par une bande de joyeux pirates.
Watercolored cards, some knitting I'll show you on GG post.
For the Olympics Games in Tokyo, I'll participate in the Wipolympic French Team, with a show of the projects mid July, the grand opening on the 23th, one or two posts I hope with big progress and a final closing ceremony on the last day August the 8th.
A few sports coupled with stitching and DIY as in previous years.
Au programme, une sélection d'épreuves sportives couplée avec une sélection de broderies et bricolages maison.
Mon Tour de France entame sa 7ème étape ce prochain mardi avec nos amis de la famille Dotcom de Silex and the city, c'est écrit dans le journal !
