La Chatte Gitane (or The Gypsy Cat) was the name we chose for our cottage in France at the time. We chose it while on the road, moving house the first time round, from Ireland to France with 2 dogs and 7 cats in the car.
This blog began its insignificant life as a recipe book for friends and family who would ask me repeatedly for a recipe of this, that and the other.
Since then it has taken many different directions, like we did and like gypsies tend to do. Sometimes making a U-turn and revisiting familiar roads and taking a break when necessary.
You'll find recipes here, but also musings about the places we've called home, the gardens that we've established, not always successfully, the homes we've improved and the environments we've lived in. Currently, after yet another stint in Ireland, we're back in France @ Le Mas d'Ayen

Buttercups

Not too far from where we live is this meadow full of buttercups. Well, there are more, but this is the most stunning.
Unfortunately the photos I take don't do it any justice, so you have to dig deep into your imagination to picture in your mind how beautiful it really is.  It helps if you also imagine the sunlight bouncing of the bright yellow flowers.
