Bienvenue!

I’m Jennifer – a passionate eater, at home chef, and ceaseless explorer.

From Boston, to Austin, to Paris, the last few years have been quite the adventure. I left my desk job to become a dog mom, and live in a country I have always adored. Here with my hubs and our furry best friend, I eat, I travel, I cook, and I write.

Thanks for stopping by!

Struggling to come to terms with reality a bit this morning and accepting the fact that not every weekend can be spent drinking wine in vineyards like this one. 🤷🏻‍♀️ #côtesdurhône #dossesinfrance #provence #instaprovence #provencecotedazur #wanderlust #thatsdarling #thatslovely #postcardplaces #france #travelfrance #été #lesgrandesvacances #myexpatlife #lesvacances #travelfrance #myfrance #instafrance #france #winery #vineyards #winelife #beaumesdevenise

Legend has it that the fiery tones of the Ochre Trail come from the blood of Dame Sermonde who jumped to her death after confrontation from a jealous husband. That's one way to explain this unique area of Provence, or you could go with the more scientific explanation, which says the color is a result of iron oxide deposits dating back to millions of years ago. I'll leave that one up to you. 😉 Either way, walking this trail was a fun and unique way to spend one morning of our Provence vacation. Even if my feet were red for the remainder of the day... #dossesinfrance #heidithepyrador #luberon #provence #instaprovence #provencecotedazur #wanderlust #thatsdarling #thatslovely #postcardplaces #france #travelfrance #été #lesgrandesvacances #myexpatlife #vaucluse #vauclusetourisme #lesvacances #travelfrance #myfrance #instafrance #france #ochre #rousillon

I can’t wait to share some more photos from our vacation that we took to Provence last week, but for now, journey with me back to July when I visited Ireland with my sister-in-law on this week’s blog post. “Snapshots from the Dingle Peninsula,” on the blog now! #ontheblog #ireland #travelireland #postcardplaces #thatsdarling #exploreireland #dingle #dinglepeninsula #traveleurope #travelblogger #wanderlust #myexpatlife #wildatlanticway #irelandgram #irelandtourism

Bonjour, Paris! I still have several vacation photos that I want to share, but I thought for now it was time for a little real-time update.... After a weekend in the Beaujolais region of France and then a long drive yesterday, we are back in Paris and settled in to our new home (for the next 3.5 months). This apartment definitely feels the most Parisian of all of our apartments because it’s so small, but also because of its location. Situated on the border of the 2nd and 9th, we’re just steps away from beautiful bistros, shops, parks, and iconic passageways (in fact, our apartment is basically on top of one), and most importantly, the hubs is just a 10 minute walk away from the library, where he will wrap up the last of his work during our final months in town. There’s a great Monop’ 20 steps away, a Marks and Spencer basically right under us, an award-winning boulangerie just down the way, and this pretty cafe on the corner of our block. I think we are going to like to here. 😍 #dossesinfrance #parisjetaime #monparis #parismonamour #exploreparis #postcardplaces #explorefrance #paris #france #travel #wanderlust #travelparis #pariscityvision #doitinparis #myexpatlife #thatslovely #9eme #seemyparis #thatsdarling #pariscartepostale

Today we went to Avignon to see the Palais des Papes and got poured on - I mean like have to wring your clothes out, chilled to the bone poured on. On the way there though, we passed a sunflower field where you could actually see the flowers, thanks to the rain! We’ve passed several fields this week, but since sunflowers follow the sun, they’ve been turned the wrong way each time we’ve passed by. The rain held off long enough for me to snap a photo, and then started pouring on me again before I made it back to the car. Provence gives me all the heart eyes. Rain and all, I’m so not ready to leave. 😍 #dossesinfrance #luberon #provence #instaprovence #provencecotedazur #wanderlust #thatsdarling #thatslovely #postcardplaces #france #travelfrance #été #lesgrandesvacances #myexpatlife #vaucluse #vauclusetourisme #lesvacances #sunflowers #sunflowerfield #tournesol

Today I hiked along some red rocks that looked like they belonged in Utah or Colorado more so than France, and then was blown away again by this country's beauty with a drive through the stunning Côtes du Rhône wine region. All in all, i'd say it was a fantastic Wednesday. Photos of both to come soon - meanwhile, feel free to check out my stories for more! #vaucluse #vauclusetourisme #lesvacances #dogmom #dogmomlife

We've been in the Luberon in Provence for less than 48 hours and I already have about 100 photos from the area that I want to share (see my stories for more). One of the hardest things about being here though is that we keep passing lavender field after lavender field, which should be amazing, but it's actually making me kind of sad as all of the lavender has already been harvested or is totally dry and therefore difficult to see. One of the biggest reasons we came to the area was to see the lavender, but I knew we were coming late in the season and that we very well might miss it. Last night we drove a bit further north where there was a stronger promise of lavender, only to be greeted with mostly the same situation (though there were a handful of good dried fields to see). Just as we were heading back though, we happened upon a beautiful field of mostly dried, but still partially blooming lavender, as well as an amazing sunset taking place behind the field. Thanks, Provence, for not letting me down! 💜#dossesinfrance #luberon #provence #lavender #lavenderfields #instaprovence #provencecotedazur #wanderlust #thatsdarling #thatslovely #postcardplaces #france #travelfrance #été #lesgrandesvacances #myexpatlife #lavandedeprovence #sunset #lecoucherdusoleil #lesbauxdeprovence #vaucluse #vauclusetourisme #lesvacances

Four hours in Provence and I’m already so in love. 😍 #dossesinfrance #lesgrandesvacances #travelprovence #provencefrance #thatsdarling #roséallday #postcardplaces #travelfrance #wanderlust #luberon #luberonprovence #myexpatlife #dogswhotravel #heidithepyrador #expatdog #labradorable #myprovence #provence #france
