That was the advertising slogan of General Electric in the 50's and 60's in the USA...well I've renewed it right here in the Maison Blanche in Lignieres. Lights, we have lights in the Dining Room, my Ancient Kitchen and, as I write, our incredibly able electrician is installing wall sockets for my counter in the Ancient Kitchen and also plugs for the dining room. That's the order of the day, tomorrow he'll attack the Grenier (attic). We are ecstatic to say the least!
It's been wet and cool for the last few days, rain every night at least and a bright and sparkly thunderstorm or two has visited us. It's been so wet that I can't continue the courtyard clean-up, too much mud! Tomorrow maybe.
I spent a good portion of yesterday dismantling the snake's den of power extension cords that had kept us (mostly) in electricity these last 3 years (20 months of which we weren't within 6000 miles!). It all worked and the house (and us!) are still here, no smoke, no fires. What an improvement to have s fully electric house once again!
Our friends Dave and Sue have returned from their visit to England, they brought us Cheddar and a mystery cheese all of which is quite appreciated! Their Cheddars and Stiltons are wonderfully strong and flavorful! The BEST! We'll make up a cheese plate for our 5pm "sit" we do every day when we remember to.
