French Friday ~ “Forever Chic” (Chapter 5)

June 13, 2014 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

  Chapter Five Le Régime  The Art of Eating Well Ask most anyone what aspect of the stereotypical “French woman” is most envied and I would wager the #1 response is the ability to stay slim despite all that delicious French food and wine. Or is that just me? Non, I’m sure it’s not.  In…

French Friday ~ “Forever Chic” (Chapter One)

October 25, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

Today is the first “meeting” of the French Chic book club. We are reading Tish Jett’s new book, “Forever Chic: Frenchwomen’s Secrets for Timeless Beauty, Style and Substance”.     Tish Jett moved to France “for two years” for her job and more than 25 years later, she’s still there. “Forever Chic” is dedicated to…

French Friday – Book Club

October 18, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

Forever Chic by Tish Jett The French Chic group I belong to decided it would be fun to do an online book club. As we were discussing which book to read first one of our members humbly mentioned that she had a book coming out. Parfait! Several of us pre-ordered and it began shipping this…

French Friday ~ Take a Walk

September 21, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

I’ve been so pleased with the increased participation on the French Chic Yahoo Group. I wish I had taken steps to jump-start things long ago. It seems many were quietly waiting in the wings, eager for a return to our more active days. I learned something from this: Don’t wait for someone else to do…

French Friday ~ Designing My Life

September 13, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I’ve long been a member (and moderator) of the Yahoo Group, French Chic. Participation has slowed in recent years, probably because of Facebook and other social media options. But several of us are hoping to revive the group because it has, in the past, served an important role in our lives.  I’ve been doing some…

French Friday – My special day

September 11, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 6 Comments

*UPDATED:  Scroll to the bottom of the post for an important addition.  I think I’ve mentioned before that I’m a member of the Yahoo Group, “French Chic”.  In fact, the idea for “French Fridays” came from that group.  Sometimes members will share what they did to make their Fridays special.  Recently, a member of the…

French Friday…An Intentional Life

August 20, 2010 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

For the past several years I’ve belonged to the Yahoo Group, French Chic.  In fact, I first joined its earlier incarnation, Je Ne Sais Quois.  Over the years I’ve vacillated between being an active participant and no mail status.  Sometimes life gets busy and I just don’t seem to find the time to participate but…
