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…

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…

French Friday ~ Girls Movie Afternoon

July 20, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

What a lovely day I’ve had so far. Lisa, Kadi (Chris’ girlfriend) and Addie (Kadi’s sister) came over to watch “Midnight in Paris” with me this afternoon. Addie had to leave early for a wedding but Lisa, Kadi and I enjoyed every minute. I made some homemade banana ice cream and even opened a bottle…

French Friday ~ June 14, 2013

  I think what appeals to me most about the stereotypical French woman is the way in which she lives life intentionally. Rather than just allowing life to happen to her, she makes deliberate choices and designs her own life. Every once in awhile I need a reminder to do likewise and that’s why I’m…

French Friday ~ June 7, 2013

June 7, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

It’s been ages since I’ve done a “French Friday” post but I’d like to start them up again. I’ve been thinking about being more intentional in my daily routine and I think that returning to French-inspired living would help in that regard. Right now I’ve got to hurry and get ready to go. We have…
