Baby it's cold outside

Temperatures are plumetting over here. Winter equals soups. Rich laurel, peppercorn, gingery vegetable soups for the heart and soul. Thickened with lentils, floury potatoes or bits of crusty bread. A splash of double cream or a spoonful of blue cheese.  Or some coconut milk for some added smooth exotic smell. All made in the lovely family "cocotte" or "caquelon".

  1. I love your artwork and wanted to tell you that I have just received "Edible French"--a lovely book. Your whimsical artwork inspired me to take a watercolor course to illustrate a children's book I've written. I see the calligraphy bottles next to your painting and wonder how you use the ink in your drawings.

    1. Hi Meredith. I hope you enjoy the book! I use waterproof ink and a metal quill, before and/or after applying watercolors.
