We got to Nice yesterday afternoon, and are staying at the same villa where we stayed last summer. This time we have a pretty full house though. My in-laws, Lawrence and Danielle, my husband’s brothers, Jeremy and Nick, his aunt Terry and her partner Louise, plus Jeremy’s friend Tim (who is visiting from Paris for a couple days) and Nick’s friend Nick (who is visiting from Spain for a couple days).
We had an absolutely delicious dinner last night at our favorite little restaurant up in the village, Le Tilleul. I had grilled scallops with stir fried vegetables, and an unbelievable lemon meringue tart, and we had a bottle (or two) of a lovely rosé.
It is currently 6:30am here and I’ve been up since five. Stupid jet lag. I did get a chance to look at pictures from the Oscars last night and let me say that I hated almost every single dress on that red carpet. I think I liked Diablo Cody’s the best because it showed off her tattoos so well. The rest? Boooooooring for the most part, and Nicole Kidman? What the fuck, girl, seriously.
