Even with the rumble of thunder and lightning the storm soon passes and our Neighbours kindly drop off a bag of Broad Beans! And Clare shows you a very quick and tasty recipe for a great lunch using them.
Check out the blog section at www.theexpatbutchers.com for a hard copy.
We very kindly receive a tool that has been bespoke made for our wine tanks (to try and utilise them to hold rainwater) from fellow youtubers Tony & Jane at Not Quite A Chateau DIY French Project. It needs a tiny tweak to get it working – but fits. Thank you both very much
As with every week here at the Maison de Maitre – deliveries are always arriving distracting us from our sometimes-naughty dogs!
Nick begins this week’s task of starting to lay the patio for Chez Isobel – the gite. Whilst Clare tackles some of the domestic jobs – meh weeding!
Clare takes some time out to address the ongoing works around the swimming pool before starting to attempt to grout the Gite patio – sometimes a plan does not always come together!
And we finish of course with wine of the week one of Clare’s favourites a red Brouilly.
