Kate Zeller

Biography

American expat, restoring an old farmhouse in France; cooking, blogging, stumbling thru French life. To keep wine on the table I do a weekly menu planning site. The hubs hammers and saws; I cook and garden. Cooking for two can be a challenge - it's easy to make too much food, then eat it! My efforts, (and his efforts) and recipes are chronicled in my blog. All my recipes use fresh, seasonal ingredients. Healthy food for a healthy life. We left Minnesota in the late 90's in search of... better weather? It's a big world, we decided to explore it. After 1 year in Ireland and 7 years in Andorra we are now firmly settled in the-middle-of-nowhere, France. We are restoring a big, old stone farmhouse and raising 2 big puppies. Why, you ask? We don't know... But here we are.
