Joyeuses Pâques, Lauren! I found your blog when searching online for gluten-free pierogis to buy for Easter, and instead I made your recipe. Simple and delicious, thank you! I am very impressed by your wonderful and positive writing, your beautiful photos, and by your initiative en France. You are an inspiration to dads of celiacs, too. I will share your site with my 8-year-old daughter, and we’ll follow you and your adventures.

Your life right now, it sounds like a dream! You’re so lucky that you’re living it. Those macarons look so, so good! I can’t wait to see what else you’re up to.

It sounds like such a great vacation! It’s heartening to know that there’s a fellow 18-year-old out there who is having so many adventures and has so much figured out. I hope I can do that next year!
Also, I so appreciate your blog. My mom was diagnosed with Celiac about two years ago and ever since then I’ve gotten a lot of great recipes and baking inspiration off your site.

I first want to give you my condolences. I know what it’s like to be so far and loose a dear friend/family member.

Now that I’ve done that, I want to tell you how glad I am to hear that the rest has been so great! I know the feeling of being able to communicate to someone in a different language or at the very least understand what they are saying to you! And you have an upper hand in having taken French before you moved and are taking a class while there (Let’s just say I’m jealous about that!!).

Oh and cheese… yeah cheese in Europe is ridiculously good. Do they make most of the cheeses in France with goat’s and/or sheep’s milk instead of cow? My Portuguese relatives think us North American’s are silly for making most of our cheese from cow’s milk.

So so wonderful! I’m so happy your experience is so great. And jealous of those macarons!

I’m sorry to hear about your cat, but glad you are enjoying your trip. Your writing just swept me away, it felt so peaceful reading it. And your pictures are beautiful! Have a great time!

For some reason, I’ve only just discovered your blog, but I am already enjoying your recipes! I love how you are “relishing” in the awkward moments of learning the language. I think I’m the opposite, shrinking away from using my newly acquired French when I forget how to say something. Good for you! If you get the opportunity to come to Paris, there is a brand-new gluten free bakery, Helmut Newcake, you’ll have to try! We’ve only been once, but will be trying it for brunch very soon! Merci pour tous les recettes!

Hello Lauren!

As a girl who spent six months in Sweden, I understand a bit of what you’re going through (though I am so jealous of your weekend with Jenn!! :]).

I am so sorry about Magic. I don’t know what else to say about that.

On a lighter note, I adore your photos! Please keep up with posting your great adventure. I particularly LOVE the last photo of you. Way to show your Canadian awesomeness… and those glasses!!!

I love all the pictures! The Alps are beautiful. After my niece graduated from college, she went to Switzerland (French speaking area) for a year as a Nannie. She didn’t like the people and quit to work in a restaurant. There she met her future husband, and has made Switzerland her home. She teaches in a college there. They travel to Italy and other countries, and she e-mails me pictures of different areas. You are lucky to be able to live there! I’m French, but hardly know any words in French. My parents wanted us to speak English, but my Dad would be speaking in English and finish in French!
