corn-syrup poison yogurt
In the U.S., too many yogurts are filled with corn syrup, preservatives, artificial this and that. To me, this is poison.
ambitious
I've never been ambitious.
thinking worry french-woman
French women typically think about good things to eat. American women typically worry about bad things to eat.
technology people isolation
With technology, there is so much isolation with people now, that there are very few places where you can connect.
Nothing but beauty and douceur
shoes clothes may
Expensive clothes with inappropriate or inexpensive shoes may send an unflattering message.
meals flavor firsts
Since the pleasure of most foods is in the first few bites, eat one thing on your plate at a time, at least at the start of the meal when you can concentrate and enjoy the full flavors.
memories wine bottles
The memory of some bottles can stay with your for life. While the wine doesn't have to be old and rare, a great old bottle can be like a time capsule, capturing in its flavors and aromas the time and place of its creation.
wine glasses oxygen
Wine is a living, breathing thing during its time in the bottle and in the glass. It is always changing, especially in the glass. A little oxygen can really open up and release the flavors in a complex wine, as well as mellow the rougher edge of immaturity.
believe add force-of-will
If you believe you can shed pounds quickly by force of will and deprivation, you will in all likelihood not only regain the ones you lost, but add a few more besides.
morning shoes house
I'm not a great consumer. I always ask myself, 'Do I really need that piece?' I have friends who have 300 pairs of shoes; how would you leave the house in the morning?
distance views cities
I love my kitchen. For Manhattan, I have a rather decent-size kitchen, and it has an opening that gives out to the dining room, which has a window with a view of the city and in the distance the Statue of Liberty.
mother father other-cultures
French women love to shop and prepare food. They love to talk about what they have bought and made. It's a deeply natural love, but one that is erased in many other cultures. Most French women learn it from their mothers, some from their fathers. But if your parents aren't French, you can still learn it yourself.
bread french-woman wonder
French women don't eat Wonder Bread.
