Encounters at a French Market

Cheryl Shufflebotham · Markets in Provence and Cote d'Azur · Taste

There is nothing like wandering through a French market filled with fresh fruits and vegetables, cheese, bread, soap, honey, and so much more. It’s a lively place—the heart of France, the heart of the village.

Today, I was meandering a French market in the stunning hilltop village of Bonnieux in the Vaucluse department of Provence. Read Cobblestones and Vineyards for Cheryl’s post on her morning at the Bonnieux market. There are “rules” you might want to know about buying bread and paying with large Euro notes.

Although, Cheryl and her husband live in upstate New York, she tells us that she is always yearning, planning, maneuvering to make her way back to France.

Cheryl's love for France started almost eleven years ago with "a once in a lifetime" ten-year anniversary trip. These wannabe expats have been back every year since that trip!

Cheryl's first French love is the region of Burgundy, but then a few years ago, she discovered Provence. Now she admits that she is torn between Burgundy and Provence. It sounds like Provence has her spellbound, "I can’t quite put a finger on what it is about Provence, but its intoxication keeps luring me back for more."

Cheryl started her blog Cobblestone and Vineyards to explore the simple charms of France, those small details that capture the heart.
