'Uproarious and deliciously wise... A pure delight.' Tori Haschka, A Recipe
for Family
At the school gate, when she accidentally kissed one new friend on the nose
and called another a 'beautiful man-horse', Rachael realised that small-town
France could hardly be more different to beach-side Australia. The smell of
cigarettes replaced the tang of bone-broth and sprouted sourdough, the
neighbours sometimes came to blows and under no circumstances would anyone
wear activewear in public. Ever.
Muddling through every interaction in terrible French pushed Rachael's family
to their limits. Some days, everybody cried and ate their feelings with almond
croissants. But the town of Sommières embraced these ragtag Australians, and
the family fell in love with their temporary hometown and its outrageous
gossip, cobblestoned beauty and kind, eccentric inhabitants.
Pardon My French is a candid, hilarious love letter to family life and France
with three valuable lessons for overcoming adversity: make home a beautiful
nest, lean into the tough lessons and look for the comedy in everything.
