How do I summarize this amazing place? Situated close to the French/Spanish border on one side, Pyrenees and Skiing and Biarritz on the Atlantique coast (just to name a few) you are really spoilt for choice. I was staying in a little village a few kms from the town of Navarrenx, Salies de bearn and about 25kms from the larger city of Pau. The mountains are picturesque and I am very much in love with Biarritz- I enjoyed an amazing seafood dinner on the beach at Biarritz whilst the sun set over the ocean! Time in Spain at San Sebastian and plenty of gourmet meals made by moi! Markets divine, cathedrals, stain glass, castles, rain, sunshine and so much more! Fitting to say quiet tired by the time it was time to move on. xx</div>

Our second week was in the Gers Region, we stayed in the incredible village of Larressingle which is les plus Beaux villages de France. The castle sits up on a hill and our gite sat across the road- pic no 5 is a view of the castle from our backyard! How can I summarize the Gers week? Medieval villages, Cathedrals, Abbayes, art exhibitions, the Three Musketeers, Castles, Armagnac vineyards and tastings, food glorious food, markets, camp siege medieval weaponry park, gardens, sunflowers........... One day we were driving to Abbaye de Flaran and we were travelling at top speed on a highway when out of a field of sunflowers comes roaring toward us like a torpedo the largest wild boar - as big as a cow! His face had the determination of a man on a mission and although as it was happening our heart was in our mouths, later on I had visions of a farmer with a gun shooting at the boar and him running for his life and almost meeting his end on the front end of our car! All said I think it would have done some serious damage to our car! The little kittens were discovered playing together in a cafe within the castle walls at Larressingle- they were really cute- hiding under the tablecloth and surprising eachother- Ruby was in cat heaven! The scenery in the Gers was quite beautiful and it has been dubbed the French Tuscany- a truly gorgeous part of the French countryside. xx Corrina</div>

Saint Emilion has always been on my radar for a visit and when I read a post by a friend the lovely Millie Brown from Travel Notecards I was definitely convinced to make the effort to visit this amazing village. We were heading to the Gers region and it was sort of on our way and I must say it was well worth the detour. Actually I would love to stay for a few days! Hugged by vineyards this ancient town is complete with cobbled streets and the most incredible underground monolithic church which was started by Saint Emilion. Renowned for its beautiful wines, I highly recommend a visit. I had so many photos to choose from- here are just a few to whet your appetite. xx<a href="http://picasa.google.com/blogger/" target="ext"><img align="middle" alt="Posted by Picasa" border="0" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif" style="-moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; border: 0px none; padding: 0px;" /></a></div>

Hello all the first week of our trip in France was so full of beauty and gorgeous food, mountain top village of Saint Cirqu Lapopie, rivers, markets and that oh, so French fairy tale setting that is the Midi Pyrenees Region. My favorite bridge in the town of Cahors which also boasts grape vines in the town near the bridge. We went to tiny villages like Lherm and Catus where we stayed. We roamed cobbled streets, ate way too much cheese and bread but it was countered by the beautiful salads we made from fresh local produce and oh the sweetest strawberries and melon and the tomatoes!! Heavenly! and did I mention the cheeses and bread!! You get the picture.</div>

Puy Leveque with its ancient streets and Cazals with cobblestones and amazing architecture. We drove through forests that look like they belong in a fairy tale and discovered a hidden gem in the ancient and tiny town of Lerhm. We ate tarte au citron and bread that had to be designed in heaven! We discovered trying to do a simple thing can take forever and be very frustrating but the FRENCH are ever helpful and generally pretty patient. One more day here and then we move on to the Gers region. xxCorrina<br />

We did venture into Cahors for an icecream and as the temp rose to 33 degrees until about 6 or 7pm we felt salad was the order of the day. Here are some pics of todays spoils. The Camembet was 500gm and cost about $5 Australian and the brie was even cheaper! Bread from Boulanger round the corner and beautiful fresh salad and prccutio ham. <br />

Left Sydney 9.55pm Monday night and flew via Hong Kong with a 4 hr wait before going on to Paris arriving Tuesday 5pm France time but 1am Wednesday Aussie time. We then hopped into our hire car and drove out of Paris to out house in Catus which took much longer than the 5 hrs it was supposed to as getting out of Paris was a right nightmare! We arrived at 1.30 this morning (Wed here) after over 30hrs of travelling. Woke up to beautiful weather at least 28 degrees all day even at 7pm tonight it was warm. We stayed in Catus to day to recover and only ventured short distances by foot to the Boulanger for our bread and boucherie for some meat for dinner (which he minced in front of us- none of that pre-packaged crap).<br />
Not much photography today I could barely string a bonjour together let alone be creative!<br />
Here are some shots of our house and village and a couple of Ruby and Curtis.<br />

It's that time of the year for us when we have months of saving, planning and dreaming come to fruition in a wonderful trip through France. This year we will re-visit some favorites (who can resist Paris!) and check out some places we have never been. The kids are very excited and we have our oldest son coming with us this time for his first time in Europe as an adult. I will endeavour where time and internet coverage allows to post some highlights of our journey. We look forward to warmer weather and fine food, with a touch of history, romance and sheer beauty. xx Corrina<a href="http://picasa.google.com/blogger/" target="ext"><img align="middle" alt="Posted by Picasa" border="0" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif" style="-moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; border: 0px none; padding: 0px;" /></a></div>

My first event at "The Long Table Secret Supper Club" we had 14 paying guests. The menu was French and we raised over $500 for the A21 organisation who rescue and rehabilitate human trafficking victims. So proud of the entire evening. Hoping to do this semi regularly!

I have been caught up with photo shoots and life with children. The very exciting 21st birthday of my twins which we hosted over 50 people at my house and catered for ( a post on this will come soon). One of the things we have really loved through summer and Autumn is working in out Potager (vege garden). My husband has done the most amazing work in our garden this year and we are so proud of our heirloom tomatoes which we are still harvesting- partly due I think to our unseasonally warm Autumn and to the amazing ability of my chief gardener (Shane my darling hubby).<br />
I would like to wet your appetite with some shots of the tomatoes which I might add- yes the pics are not lying- two tomatoes weighed 1kg!

The wonderful Rachel Kwoo cooks up a storm in her minuscule kitchen in Paris (all authentic!). Due to lack of space and a desire to tweak ever so slightly the traditional French fare, she comes up with amazing dishes anyone can make at home- big or small kitchens alike.<br />
Her eclectic sense of style and love for food and ingredients makes it a delight to watch- while Paris turns on all its charms in the stunning imagery that can only evoke those moments that dreams are made of.<br />
Celebrating her first anniversary since the publication of her book 'The Little Paris Kitchen" Rachel is holding a give away that I am only too happy to promote- go here <a href="http://www.rachelkhoo.com/news/the-little-paris-kitchen-book-anniversary#comment-7706">http://www.rachelkhoo.com/news/the-little-paris-kitchen-book-anniversary#comment-7706</a><br />

<br />
The Story of the Wilson Brothers (My husband Shane's great uncles)<br />
George and Isabella Wilson moved to Australia from Ireland for a better life. They started in Braidwood in NSW but after having several children moved to Portmacquarie on the north coast of NSW to start a business in the timber industry.<br />
Three of their sons, Eric-21, Samuel- 29, and Jim-17, were inseparable and all enlisted together to fight in World War 1.<br />
Three weeks after arriving at Fromelles France they joined the 53rd Battalion and the boys were part of one of the bloodiest battles in a 24hr period in Australian War history. Samuel and Eric were last seen charging together and were both killed on 19th July 1916. Jim was shot in the neck almost killing him and was found later in an English hospital. Eric and Sam were buried by the Germans in a mass grave alongside hundreds of other soldiers, at Pheasants Wood Fromelles and with that began a 94 year mystery as all those soldiers remained under ground in what was an unknown location, therefore the families never had closure over the missing dead.<br />
Fast forward to 2009 and the mass grave was discovered, relatives were asked by the Australian Defense for DNA and in 2010 Samuel and Eric Wilson were positively identified- they were buried together. Their mother died before Jim could return home- some say of a broken heart. Jim did return home and went on to live a full life. The soldiers were buried in a new cemetery purpose built at Pheasant Wood, right near the place they were found, and not far from where they lost their lives.<br />
<br />
When we traveled France last year we were able to visit the cemetry and other memorial sites in Fromelles as well as visit the museum in the town Marie which had an incredible collection of war items and photos including a huge photo of the Wilson brothers (the largest one there) which was incredibly emotional. I felt immensely proud to be an Australian, it is clear the French have a huge love and respect for us because of the sacrifice our soldiers made. Here are some images to Honour the Wilson Brothers and the Battle at Fromelles France.<br />

As I said in the last post the cathedral was a mini Notre Dame without all the tourists! The day we went to the cathedral there was a vintage car show on right out front which added to the feeling of being in a past time. After you visit the cathedral there are museums and beautiful tea salon in the town centre. Not to mention patisseries and boulangeries and other eateries. Here are some more shots I took while there.<br />

Senlis is a beautiful village about 40mins from Paris. My only disappointment was we were only able to stay one night. We stayed in the ancient part of Senlis which is choc full of cobblestone streets, ancient buildings, beautiful cafes, patisseries and tea salons. One of the highlights is Senlis's version of Notre Dame Cathedral complete with gargoyles and amazing stainglass windows.<br />
The town of Senlis is famous for an artist ' Seraphine' who unfortunately went into an asylum and died before she truly saw the fame of her art. Her art was inspired by the the windows in the cathedral and is truly amazing. The image below was taken inside the cathedral, here you sit on french rush seated chairs, surrounded by stunning stain glass windows and solid stone pillars, a place of peaceful repose and truly beautiful workmanship. Senlis is a real must if you are visiting France and are near or in Paris, A two day stay would be ideal<br />

Now I am the first to admit- (and I bet most photographers would) to being a bit of a voyeur. I just love watching and capturing people- people fascinate me. Really old, really young, ethnic, .... you get the picture. Anyhow, these shots show that even the voyeur can be come the voyee ( is that a word?), here are some shots by me of a guy taking shots of people. Loved his hat and urban clothing and whopper lens! xx Corrina.<br />

I love the sculptural element of a city's architecture as well as its people and goings on. It really fascinates me, especially as I live in a rural/coastal part of Australia which has it's own beauty too. The city is a real contrast for me so over the next few weeks I'd like to share what my eyes and heart found, focused and captured.<br />

Time for DinnerNow that everyone has a beautiful table to complete the atmosphere I love to have candles throughout the house and keep lighting to just lamps with the candles for a soft glow. My hubby and I love music and I think this is an important element of a dinner party. If it's too full on you can't talk and relax so I keep it low enough to talk but at a level that is audible. We have so many styles but for this evening we played the soundtrack to eat,pray, love while canapes were being devoured out on the deck and then when we came inside for the meal, jazz and Edith Piaff.<br />
<br />
What are we eating you say? I have a couple of rules when I cook for dinner parties and I have learned the hard way<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Never make something you haven't cooked before or are at least familiar with</li>
<li>Never make something extremely complex- it just adds stress</li>
<li>If you cook with seasonal ingredients they're always at their best</li>
<li>Try to have at least a few elements that can be done in advance so the day is not too stressful</li>
<li>I have a principle I have for the entirety of the menu- have at least one really stand out thing- so if you are going to do something complex I usually choose the desert for wow factor and because mostly it can be done say in the morning and out of the way. For entre or canapes I try to keep it simple but quality, and for the main have one element very simple and one very special (it may be a stand out ingredient like lobster!)</li>
<li>I try not to have every element needing to be cooked</li>
<li>Clean up as you go ! You'll appreciate this later.</li>
</ol>
<div>
With all this in mind the menu for this dinner party was as follows</div>
<br />
<br />
Canapes : Drinks- Gin and Tonics with fresh lemon and plenty of ice<br />
Small bowls of olives, cashews<br />
Parmesan biscuits with pesto ('What Katie Ate' page 116)<br />
Main Spit Roast Whole chicken ala naturale<br />
Marinated green bean salad<br />
My roast pumpkin, pine nut, rocket, fetta and pomegranate salad<br />
Desert : French Chocolat Gateaux with preserved plums and cream<br />
: Lemon Brulee Tart<br />
<br />
We couldn't decide which desert so I just did both. Now I do have to apologise as because I was chef, host, etc etc it was a little hard and not really appropriate to be snapping everything we ate as I served so I am lacking in pics fo rhis post. What you get is pics of my salad I made this recipe up a few weeks before and photographed it then.<br />

Our course also covered front of house (restaurant) etiquette. We had an amazing teacher who was Irish by birth and had worked in some of Europe's best restaurants. He taught us a'la' carte and table d'hote and we had to be able to set up a restaurant as if it were first class. Now most of you would know some of these tips but I tell you when you set a table in this way it is really 'a beautiful thing'! As I said in part one, make sure your cloth is freshly laundered and ironed and laid so it falls evenly. My table is a rectangle but for ovals and small squares you can also lay on the diagonal. My tutor used to insist you did a double layer for this so one would sit square and then a second cloth was laid on top diagonally. Cutlery is quite simple- for an up market look try to have matching but if that's not possible go rustic with a mismatched look and decorate accordingly. I love my very simple but heavy duty stainless steel cutlery with a plain rounded edge. Now this is where you need to work with your menu- you set to eat from the outside in so the course you serve first has its cutlery on the outside and the last course (usually desert is the closest to the plate. So- set from the inside out ending on your first course if you get my drift!!?? My tutor used to get out a ruler and measure our placement- bit pedantic for a home dinner party, the best way to do it is use the edge of your table as the line so the bottom of your forks, knives etc sit lined up with the edge of the table. The plate needs to go on first and sit central to the seat- then do your cutlery. For glassware my tutor always had both red and white wine glasses and a water glass, but again we are not playing it too formal so one wine glass and a water glass is fine. Glasses sit above and slightly to one side of your knife(so always to the right) and just be consistent with which one you put first- wine or water. After I set the cutlery and plates I do the candles and other decorations. I put the napkin under the fork and if you're having a bread plate it goes next to the knife but with its own knife sitting on top central to the plate. I didn't have bread at this party so it's not pictured here. See below some examples. I know you are all hanging out to eat- that will come in Part 4 xxCorrina<br />

I have a lot of china to choose from- my everyday plates I picked up from a second hand store, they were cast offs from a local cafe updating but to my good fortune all white, oval heavy duty plates, cups and saucers, teapots etc for a meager $100 including at least 40 plates. I use these everyday but they also work in an all white or white + colour scheme. They are heavy duty and dishwasher safe so if I am feeding a lot of people including children I tend to use these to lessen the workload later when its clean up time (and lets face it who wants to spend hours in the kitchen after you spent hours cooking and setting up!). I also have an amazing array of antique china much of it used to be my husbands Nan's and part of that collection was a gorgeous antique blue and white china 12 place set that is all in perfect condition! Our philosophy when we acquired all her china (truckloads of the stuff) was to use it. Nan had most of it either hidden away or shoved in cupboards where no one could see and appreciate them, so I use them for special occasions and we wash them up by hand as old china is not made for modern dishwasher temperatures and chemicals. It is worth the extra effort as they are truly beautiful. For this dinner party as it was only for 8 people I chose the blue and white china with the white Belgian linen cloth and napkins. My good cutlery were also a score from an upmarket French cafe and again are worth quite a bit brand new but buying it this way was so reasonable- they have simple rounded bottoms, very solid/heavy duty and good quality but dishwasher safe. (Part 3 will cover the correct way to set the cutlery).<br />
I try not to be overly 'matching' or it may look like a wedding so I use a variety of candles for ambiance and interest. I use any mix of containers to hold tea lights - and what I use depends on the overall look I want but for example I use old jam jars in a variety of sizes, I use any gorgeous glasses I may have for some height and I also have a variety of French candles in their own containers (glass bottles and jars). These may be bunched together or spread along the centre of the table. Lastly I use some sort of flower or fruit as a final flourish. I had to laugh as I hadn't worked out what I would use and as I shop for groceries online I had ordered pears for my fruit bowl, when they arrived they were some weird mini pears?? Viola! a really cute, rustic, provincial looking table decoration and a conversation starter too! Well enough from me- here are some pics to hopefully inspire you xxCorrina Images copy right Corrina Tough 2013<br />

Last Friday was my husbands birthday and it got me to thinking what is the recipe for a successful dinner party? Is it the music? the food?the table? We decided to have an intimate dinner party with just our children and one other couple so I could really go to town on the table and food. I thought I would do a little mini- series on my tips and tricks for a beautiful evening. This time I'll focus on the table, anyone who knows me well knows I love white and I have a few well worn white damask table cloths, however, none of them fit my huge dining table 3metres long x 1.5-2mtres wide. So you can imagine my delight when I was travelling around France last year I had a week in Provence and picked up a stunning 3mtre white Belgian linen cloth with 15 napkins! This was the first time I had laid it on the table after coming home and it did take my breath away. Firstly, I try to use the best I have- it doesn't have to match you can tie it together with a neutral background and this is why I love white table cloths as they go with any china, candles/flowers and room styles. If I want to be less formal my table stays naked (natural wood). For a truly beautiful and smooth look iron linen on a hot iron and lay the table straight away- alternatively always iron and fold after washing so it's ready for the next time. I make sure the sides are hanging evenly and the chairs are slightly ajar from the table so the cloth falls nicely. Voila! ready to lay the china! Stay tuned for part two- Table decorations.<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
I hear you saying- WHITE!!! What about stains? I have had fairly positive success with Sards Wonder Oxy Plus stain remover sprayed on stains and left over night, then soak in the washing machine with nappysan and warm water. It came out perfectly. One napkin had chocolate on it and I repeated the process to a result. Red wine came out immediately. xxCorrina </div>

A couple of weeks ago we had those extreme temperatures (like everyone else) over 43 degrees and the bush fires were very close- we were put on alert to be evacuated and had our bags packed by the front door and any special items like photos ready to take. These images were taken from my front verandah and front yard of the amazing smoke and red in the sky- a scary time, hopefully we won't have to deal with this again for a long time. We count our blessings that it didn't come right into our village. xx Corrina.</div>

I don't really know why but I just love old bakelite phones and old typewriters, maybe its the echo to the past. I had forgotten until I spent a weekend with my grandmother recently that my grandfather was a typewriter mechanic so I must have memories deeply buried in my brain of those fascinating machines and watching him work on them at home- even using them... I love the sound they make and the typeset as it lands on the paper. There is no delete button here so be sure about what you are writing or you will lose half a forest in paper or have to use white out to fix any errors. Last year I came across an old black bakelite phone in a vintage shop in Berry on the NSW south coast- of course it doesn't work but I just love it and have used it when doing portrait shoots- looks especialy cute with children. Then just before Christmas I was in a vintage shop in Milton (also on the south coast) where I scored my very own typewriter! I haven't had time to fiddle with the ribbons and a few of the keys stick when you press them, however, I just love it- my hubby thinks I have a weird obsesion and maybe I do- but I have visions one day of having a formal office with an antique table and my typewriter and phone, some old books perhaps and a funky pencil tin to set up an atmosphere for creativity- then maybe I'll write a book!! xxCorrina.</div>

I am totally in love with Pomegranates right now- the rich scarlett colour, the rustic and sculptural qualities and the red ruby jewel like seeds that pop in your mouth. Used for sweet or savoury dishes this wonderful fruit is very versatile. I know why some of the great artists painted them, they are truly beautiful! xxCorrina.</div>
