and its hello from him...Hi all, Kitchenboy here :) Thanks to NannyP for telling me about this place.
I'm an avid cook, love kitchen gadgets, finding new ingredients etc. I live in the south of France on the Provence/Rhone Alpes border so finding good fresh produce is not difficult. I've worked in the catering/hospitality industry for most of my working life but gave all that up three years ago to run our own B&B (Chambre d'hote) here in France.
OK so now I'm off to steal some of your recipes :) I'm always looking out for simple but impressively difficult looking dishes to offer the guests :)

Looks fab, may see you in summer 2009!

That would be nice :) The area we are in is not so well known to the Brits, but in my opinion, it is the most beautiful part of Provence as its more mountainous than further south. Our area is known for its goats cheese (Picodon) and the local plonk isn't half bad either at 1 Euro a litre :)

NOooooooo part of the UK, NOT part of Britain!

But its OK I will forgive you for that fab breakfast!

I'm originally from the Isle of Wight, the French usually think it is part of the Channel Islands

I'm Scottish, but according to Americans, I'm apparently English."Say, where in England is Scotland?" Unless it's those American who have ancestors from Scotland, who are more Scottish than the Scots!!

I'm on my bestest behaviour I'll have you know!!! You'll give these good people the wrong impression of me
|
Jerseygirl

We prefer people who are not on their best behaviour, it's much more fun

I think Kitchenboy...it's fair to give some warning of what could happen now you're here.
And, where's your Avi, so all the women can get jealous of your hat

Well I'm hoping to sample some of your cooking!
