I went to lunch at Reflets for lunch. It has become one of my preferred restaurants in Toulouse. I have made reservations for dinner on my last night in Toulouse there. Most restaurants are not open on Monday but Reflets is so it worked out great for me as I can have dinner at a… Read More Another nice day
I run often in the Parc de Garonne. It is just over two miles along the banks of the Garonne to get to the entrance of the Parc. The Parc is a large open area with running, biking, walking and riding trails. One side of the running routes is along the banks of the Garonne… Read More My constant quest
As it was Sunday, I did my usual Sunday activity. It is one of my favorite days as I get to enjoy Toulouse life. I walked over to the St. Aubin’s market and did my regular shopping. I really cannot remember U.S. food prices but I feel that things are definitely cheaper here. I bought… Read More Doing the things I love about Toulouse

At home, being spoiled, I have someone who cleans my apartment which makes it very easy for me. Here I have to clean the… Read More Never know what I will see in Toulouse

Then a stop at Maison Pillon for a chocolatine, the Marché Victor Hugo for some protein for dinners. The morning is always active as the walk to St. Aubin’s takes about 20-25 minutes and… Read More Quick Post
It was a rainy day and so I did not do much during the day. The weather pattern has been rain one day, sun the next day and then rain again. I am hoping we will go back to better weather soon. I have been going to Terra Tolosa for lunch since Easter of last… Read More Back to food blogging
