What Is New For The New Year
Its that time again when La Mom reflects on the year gone by and is looking forward to the next year. To honor lanne 2010, here are my Frenchified New Year resolutions.
1. Take an amateurs French class.
Thatis’s right, its back to basics French 101. My French pals have declared war on my inaccurate use of Le and La and they assert that after ten years here I should talk perfect French.
I say lets not get too choosy - my message gets across despite these petite mistakes. When they stop exclaiming high end as high hand, then sick take ‘em seriously.
two. Learn how to cook French food.
I suspect gigantic Cheese is bored with Tex Mex and frozen French food from Picard judging by the christmas present he gave me this year : French Cooking for Dummies.
three. Learn the different French baguettes.
Im uninterested in getting corrected by giant Fry at the boulangerie when I order astraightforward baguette and he tells the baker, make sure its a traditional baguette and not too cooked, please. you’ll be able to find the best one just near to appartement Montmartre
four. Shop quicker.
I realized I havent been hitting the boutiques enough when I spent last Monday shopping ALL day and couldnt buy anything I liked because my Parisianista fashion expert boss already has the same stuff!
five. Carry a pocket compendium.
To whip out when gigantic Fry uses words like puisque. Gone are the days when I understood all of his French : La voiture goes vite, mommy.
6. Think like the French its all about the wine.
A Frenchie emailed his holiday wishes and concluded with, Il faut sefforcer dtre jeune comme un Beaujolais et de vieillir comme un Bourgogne ( Try your hardest to stay young like a Beaujolais wine and grow old like a Bourgogne wine ).
