Introduction Forever After French is a reflection of how the many years I spent living in France has influenced my work as an artisan and my lifestyle in general. In a previous blog,called “Martha From Normandy” I shared a tale about my life in France, which became a memoir entitled "Faith over Reason" available on Lulu.com I know that France, with its firmly rooted traditions and cultural complexities, is a fundamental part of who I let myself grow into. I will be Forever after French even as I move forward eagerly anticipating the next chapters in my life.

Why don't you ever wear a scarf? It doesn't need to be cold outside for your neck to feel naked.

au contraire!I always wear a scarf: a silk one from le Musee Historique des Tissus in Lyon France.
