ROAD TRIP DAY THIRTEEN: While in Lourmarin yesterday, we hit a significant milestone in this community – 16k strong and growing every day. It never ceases to amaze me that I have the opportunity to connect with each of you, many on a daily basis. Thank you for the gift of your time, joy, and empathy.
Amid our celebrations, you might have missed my tour of the most picturesque village I have been to in France – Lourmarin. She is like walking a movie set. Every turn was prettier, every tiny alley perfectly French. Want to revisit a video I’ve published? You can find ALL of them up in my Instagram highlights.
Meanwhile, I am super backlogged on YouTube and will be scheduling all of my videos for publication ASAP. YouTube is another excellent way to watch my content, especially if you don’t like that 15-second “hiccup” break in the Instagram storyline. I also occasionally post videos to IGTV, like the tour of the lovely house we are renting in Provence for this road trip.
I try to balance quiet days after busy ones, especially if there is a lot of driving. In today’s InstaStory, we go to the Friday open-air market in Fontvielle, stop by a church that dates back to 1175, and then revisit our new fav bakery in Tarascon. Last but not least, join in a conversation about villages in France. Why do some of the towns I have been visiting seem so quiet? Where are the people? Jump on up to my story to get my take on why.
Coming up: YOU ARE INVITED!!! TOMORROW!!!! @mollyjwilk & I are hosting a LIVE bake. We are making a fantastic French recipe – super simple chocolate cakes tomorrow via Instagram Live at 11 AM Paris. The ingredients are probably already in your pantry, and all you need is a whisk + ramekin or muffin tin. I’ll put the list in the comments below. JOIN US! (And don’t worry – I will save the video for replay if you cannot join).
