A quiet day at home in the South of France. In this video, I share a few moments from everyday life — working on my cookbook, organizing recipes, and slowly building the project step by step. Later in the morning, we visit a local market, filled with seasonal fruits, vegetables, flowers, and the simple atmosphere of daily life in the South of France. Back home, the day continues calmly, between cooking inspiration, home moments, and the rhythm of village life. A simple day focused on creativity, food, and slow living.

The speaker shares an update on the progress of her upcoming cookbook, detailing the multi-stage process of finalizing recipes, measuring ingredients, and capturing location-specific photography. She documents a trip to a local market in Nice to source seasonal ingredients, such as zucchini flowers, while reflecting on the transition into summer.
I'm still working on the cookbook, well, first of all there are so many recipes, this is
the first stage. The second stage is to mark all really quantity and time of cooking and everything.
And the last stage is taking photos of the dishes. And yes, I'm taking the photos of the
recipe everywhere. Now we are just in front of the old town of Montaigne. I think I didn't even
say hi to you. Hi everyone, how are you doing? I hope your week was great and you are having a good
time and you are looking forward to this weekend wherever you are and whatever you do.
Yeah, you know, some recipes are really from this area, so I do want to take photos of them
in this area. And today is very windy, I didn't choose this day, it's because I just needed to
be around and in the same time. I'm trying to take some footage, I did get some pretty good
photos, so the wind, you don't see the wind in the photos, it was good. The book is not ready yet,
I just wanted to share with you what I'm doing these days, like all these days, because I really
determined to finish it while Matthew is in school before vacation. And yes, summer is coming,
it will be really really soon. Well, today is not a best day to say that summer is coming,
very windy, but yeah, once the weather is in your place, I hope summer is coming everywhere.
Oh, I'm sure you know what it is. This is tartare de boeuf and in every restaurant
on the Côte d'Azur, almost in every restaurant and brasserie, you will have this in the menu.
And this beautiful recipe going straight in the book. For the next recipe, I had to
wake up early morning and go to the biggest local morning market
near me and I choose to go to Nice, we are in Corsalia, and this is what I was looking for.
Of course, I can find it also in Monton, but I do need a couple of other things and
I wanted to be sure that I can find what I need in one place, so here we are
in the beautiful market. I do need the flowers of zucchini and this is the season now, it's
everywhere, you'll see, look already in this merchant, there are so many, they're very fragile,
so I will take care to bring it home safely and it's just nice to walk in the morning markets
and see the seasonal vegetables like this. I do have ideas about the new recipes, I already
do have a list of recipes, I confirmed it, but you know, sometimes I think about something else
and I add, I'm still adding the recipes, it will be a hundred plus. Oh my god, we finally
are in the season of cherries, the most beautiful time. I hope I brought it safely,
let's see. To be sure that I have enough, I bought it with another merchant and it's like two
different kinds of, you see, the flowers are the same big, but the zucchini is different,
here is very small, here is larger, so I can use it for another recipe with the zucchini,
something with zucchini. And now I will start another session of photos and
I do really now have to mark everything because this recipe is like from the childhood, you know,
and I, of course, I can't say like add a little bit of this and a little bit of that because
this is how I do. Now I have to really note how many of flowers I did use, how many of
products, you know, because I realized that all my cooking is a little bit of this and a little
bit of that, so now I really have to note everything and it's perfect, the result is
perfect. The weather is still changing very quick, the summer is not settled yet,
there is the blue sky, I think by the sea it's sunny and I think it's raining only above the
nothing to worry about, the wind is very strong and in 20 minutes we had sun again, I think
summer won the battle with this unexpected weather changing every 20 minutes we have,
we do have the most incredible evening sky. I hope you enjoy your evening too,
thank you so much for watching, I love you all and see you soon, take care.
