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.

Working with Ben

On a gloomy Sunday afternoon, Benjamin Tankersley visited us and we spent the day sitting on a sofa, looking at his website. I look forward to working on it , I think he is a great photographer and should be published in many more magazines...
So Soon To Come... Benjamin C. Tankersley updated website... Look for his blog also.

3 french words he needs to know when travelling:
Rain: Pluie
Chilly: Frais
Chili con carne: chilie con carne

End of Summer

Yes it is the end of the summer, the days are shorter, but still quite hot and humid.
If anyone is still following me ... learning a just few words here and there... thank you!

I read a blog yesterday talking about The Certification of Graphic Designers...
The comments were very funny, and I think everyone agreed on the end results:
It really doesn't matter if you are certified because a bad design will unlikely kill anyone,
whereas a poorly built structure could very well fall on your head... and kill you.

So Graphic Designers, rebel and if your future employer asks for a degree... he/she should ask to
see your qualities, capabilities, knowledge, team work, flexibility, and if you show up at work!


My 3 French words for the day are:

Yesterday: HIER
Graphic Designer: GRAPHISTE
Show up at work: SE PRESENTER A SON TRAVAIL

Cheers, I'm off to work.
