As well as being great friends, Deborah and I co-lead a women’s tour in the south of France in September. When she’s not visiting friends and family (especially adorable grandchildren) in the States, Deborah lives in the heart-stoppingly (I’m sure that’s a word in France!) charming vieille ville of Uzès.

Much Ado About French Truffles in Uzès
BY BAREFOOT BLOGGER ON JANUARY 10, 2019
Uzès is famous for French truffles. Black ones. Pigs and dogs sniff them out from beneath the roots of trees.

Bon weekend! Relax, stay warm and enjoy a good read!
I’ve been fortunate enough to have some fine French truffles. And I sometimes see truffle oil in stores now. It’s very expensive but kind of fun to see it on the shelves.
Thanks for the fun post.
