Raspberry Lychee Mille Feuille


Boy: Mommmm... can you make Mille Feuille?
Mom: what?
Girl corrected boy's pronunciation...


but Mom reaction was a wee bit slow .... what? Me Three?
*face palm* moment
So there goes... me and 'French' ... #iFail again :(


Cheat Raspberry Lychee Mille Feuille
In my humble opinion... French is such a romantic language, to be able to learn and at least speak, would be fantastic. And since young.... I always said that one day I want to speak the language.
That one day came when I was in Uni, alas.... me speaking French would become reality.

Looking at my course timetables, silently.... and happily, I said "Oh yes! I have Wednesday afternoons free..." and they had French Level 1, on Wednesday afternoons too.... perfect!!!
I walked into that room, sat at the table, looked around for familiar faces (none I see...phew),  and when the lecture started, then only I realised, even though it stated French Level 1, its far from Beginners Level.
Everyone around was already thousands of miles ahead while I was ... well... a "beginner".
Once the lecture was over... you can bet that "They" never saw me again after that!!!
Back to present day, starting next week, I am on to another quest of learning another language.
I hope this time, I will not be stumped again... well at least with this language, I already know how to read and write but I just don't know how to communicate :(... make sense? I guess not.
Wish me luck... I am going to"school" again :D

but before that... enjoy my ME-ThREE :P

    Gorgeous photography :)! and lol about the French story ;). I always wanted to learn French when I was a little girl because I was very into French history, but then I decided to do German instead at uni - which was probably a better decision, since French pronunciation is so damn difficult and I sort of excelled in German ;).

    Looks perfect for Mother's Day, nice job! I took 2 years of French in high school (so long ago, LOL) ...and now since I didn't practice it often, I really don't remember much but wish I did. I'd like learning it again and maybe another language, too. Have a nice weekend. :)
