April Showers Bring May Flowers

My son told me this yesterday afternoon while driving back home. We both wondered when did the trees bacome so green again? I walk , i take public transportation, I look out the windows, and suddenly the city is green. Every year I feel like this is an overnight transformation.... The hear wave for the past 3 days is unusual, and this brought on my comment of the day: April Showers Bring May Flowers
Well in French I only know one such sentence for the month of April:
 
En Avril, ne te decouvres pas d'un fil!
Translation: In April Don't uncover yourselve of one thread.... in other words, beware of the cold!
This would make many of my friends laugh...since I over bundled my babies in fear of the cold...
 
That's it for now,
 
Cheers.

Sunday Mornings

Sunday mornings are made to watch cooking shows and wonder what will the coming week bring on! I'm a good cook, I enjoy creating simple healthy meals for my family. Some evenings, I just burn out, I will simply have a glass of wine, and we each fend for ourselves...and the kitchen is a huge mess! Getting back to my sunday cooking shows, I am trying out a quick pear tart with raw sugar and cinnamon... and my usual chicken milanesas (or fried chicken cutlets) .
Today I will give you more than 3 French Words, a  few short sentences;

I enjoy cooking: J'aime cuisiner!
I just burn out: Je suis a bout
I have a glass of wine: Je sirrote un verre de vin

That's it for now, until next.... month?

Cheers to my followers,  enjoy some good home cooking.
