I‘m still terribly behind, but at least I‘m in July and not June.
Love this quote about Monsieur Mabeuf.
“Like everyone else, he had his own - ist ending. … He was neither a royalist, a Bonapartist…..
- he was a book-specialist!

tpixie @JenlovesJT47 yes! Just a little summary- but it is nice and clear. 💙🤍❤️ 2w
Cuilin Fabulous 2w
tpixie @Cuilin 🥳💙🤍❤️🥳 2w
tpixie @TheBookHippie Yes!!! 💙🤍❤️. lol I‘m still in mid June, but hoping I get some reading in today & tomorrow while my youngest daughter & her 5 kids are at school/daycare. I‘m visiting helping them because her husband has had knee surgery (#3 @32yo!!) . Today‘s first day of school. Now I wish I took off next week too because I don‘t see how they‘re going to do it. He still is doing too much. ❤️‍🩹 2w
TheBookHippie @tpixie oh that is rough. My sister in love is having #2 she‘s only 47 ! Its recovery is awful. 2w
dabbe 💙🤍♥️ 2w
tpixie @TheBookHippie yes! I suspect especially in young people because they still have so many child and Work obligations. As opposed to a retiree with a total knee…. Retirees are busy, but usually don‘t have a gazillion people living with them needing them. (edited) 2w

One more! Had to do this one in French:

Une boulangerie?
Mais oui! Baguettes, croissants,
petits pains — superbe! 🇫🇷

A bakery? Oh yes!
Baguettes, croissants, rolls —
superb! 🇫🇷

lil1inblue I remembered enough French to read this without the translation! 🤩🤣😎 Love! 1mo
Cuilin @lil1inblue same, and quite proud of myself. ☺️ 1mo
AnnCrystal Délicieuse 👏🏼🐝👌🏼🥐😋🐝💝.

Note: there was a feminine and masculine translation of the world yummy?? If this yummy isn't about food, blame Google 😂🤔🤗.

JenlovesJT47 @AnnCrystal the only word I know for yum in French is miam.🤤 Which word are you talking about? 1mo
AnnCrystal @JenlovesJT47 translated yummy in French on Google and it gave me “Délicieuse“ for feminine and “Délicieux“ for masculine 😂...miam is the translation! That's good to know 🤗😉👍🏼. 1mo
JenlovesJT47 @AnnCrystal ??‍♀️??‍♀️??‍♀️ I‘ve been out in the sun all day so don‘t mind me! ??‍? the first one you used is correct when talking about food. La nourriture délicieuse ? = delicious food ? 1mo
AnnCrystal @JenlovesJT47 🆒😉👌🏼, at least I was in the ballpark of what I intended to say 😂.

La nourriture Délicieuse 🥐😋👍🏼💝💝🇫🇷💝💝.

Inaugurated
in 1892, paying homage to
Ocean Man — Victor.

Fun fact: “Ocean man" was a self-applied nickname Victor Hugo used to describe the male literary geniuses he admired, comparing their minds to the vastness of the ocean. The sea and natural world were a significant source of inspiration for his writing and artwork, particularly during his exile in the Channel Islands.

My sister is on vacation in Toulouse, France this week & she sent me some pics from Place Victor Hugo, so I thought I‘d share with my hive and those who #readLesMis — & of course, must write a haiku about it. ? If you zoom in on the street sign, it says Marché Victor Hugo (Victor Hugo Market).

Place Victor Hugo —
dreamy locale in the heart
of vibrant Toulouse. ??
