Home For Lunch


The schools in Paris let out for over an hour each day for lunch. Many children go home for lunch. This petite jeune fille is going with her maman.

Very nice shot, V. Will be sharing with French Girl in Seattle readers this morning. I used to be this little girl. During our elementary school years, wherever we lived in France, my mother would walk my brother and me to school in the morning; then return to pick us up at lunch. We enjoyed a nice meal and break at home; walked back to school early afternoon. Finally, around 4:30-5:00pm, she would be there once again, waiting for us outside. Occasionally, we would stop at the local boulangerie for a special treat (pain au chocolat, chausson aux pommes, palmier,) on the way home. Memories... :-) Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)

My parents said it was the same in the Netherlands when they were growing up.

Ah, a simpler approach that reminds me of the 1950s in the States.
