Laury says the weather pattern has changed; it's fall in the Lot. We've had very cool, foggy mornings in the Lot Valley followed by brilliant blue skies and warm afternoons. The trees and underbrush of the causse are changing daily into muted shades of orange, gold and red. This morning, Laury, Jean and I drove to Villefranche to the market. Every market I've been to so far has been a bit different. Jean was looking for candied fruit and spices for her English Christmas cakes, but alas, the spice guys weren't there! We stopped for hot chocolate and a pain chocolat, then drove back home. The afternoon is shaping up to be reading, wine, and enjoying the lovely sun on the terrace. Tonight we've been invited to dinner at Christiane and Jean-Paul's. Laury says to be prepared for massive amounts of food and drink and good times. It's hard to believe I've only a few days left of this wonderful month in France...I could live this life forever!
