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

Two Ponds Full of Water


Oh yes, it rained ! And then some.
The new pond is now overflowing. Most of it into the drain that leads excess water to the stream further along.

The other pond is not a pond, but full it was during the week when the moon was out in all her glory and we temporarily lost a chunk of our land to the tide.


 We also lost part of the boat that came with the property when we bought it. A good part of it stranded on what we call our peninsula (when it's above water)
