We spent the morning at Karen's house. We had breakfast with Sarah and Vincent from Paris by way of Idaho. They are interested in buying the house next door to us. In the afternoon they came over to Montsoreau to see the house. I also got to see it for the first time.
The house is very small. There are two rooms above the garage and another big space in the grenier. There is a toilet and a shower but no kitchen. The cave is pretty big and is connected to our garage. Vincent the Frenchman was very hesitant about the amount of work that would need to be done. He wanted to get estimates for how much it would cost to replace the roof and rebuild the chimney stack. Sarah the Idahoan was far more enthusiastic. She was ready to buy it on the spot. It will be interesting to see if they go ahead and buy the house and what they will make of it.

OMG! - those are the biggest black cherries i have ever seen! . . . i first thought they were plums? . . . how did it taste? and the dessert looking wine looks just as awesome/tasty.
They were huge juicy cherries. We are at the end of the season so we are getting big ones in the market.
The clafoutis turned out really well - everyone liked it. The cherry brandy is a blur.
