Vers 11H00 ce matin, ne pouvant plus attendre que le brouillard se dissipe je suis parti au marché de Libourne. Les photos sont loin d’êtres parfaites, mais je trouve qu’elle reflètent assez bien l’ambiance. La première (ma grand mère et ma tante) fut prise en 1947. Elle montre bien que rien n’à changé depuis: les mêmes arcades, les mêmes cageots de bois, les mamies à vélo. Le bonheur à la Française. My French Heaven.
Le monsieur très chic et très appliqué dans le montage photo est notre fromager Pierre Rollet-Gérard (prg3@wanadoo.fr- 06 78 92 26 26). Sa boutique est au 43 cours Portal à Bordeaux.
At 11 this morning, unable to wait for the fog to lift any longer, I went to the market. The photos are far from perfect, but I think they reflect the atmosphere quite well. The first one (my grandmother and my aunt) was taken in 1947. It shows that nothing has changed: the same arches, the same wooden crates, old ladies on their bicycles… My French Heaven:0)
The very chic and focused gentleman in the photo montage is our cheesemonger Pierre.

Beautiful
Thank you very much indeed!
Love your photos! Makes me want to go back to France. Last year, we were at a market in Lyon.
Lyon is such a beautiful city!! I lived there for a while when I was younger. You need to come back and try the South West of the country this time:0)
Superbes photos, elles donnent envie d’aller faire un tour au marche!

you are far too modest. you’re incredibly talented.
You are too kind Denise (or is it Sandy?) Thank you!!
Great photography!
Thank you!
Far from perfect?! These are amazing.
You are too kind!!
Beautiful photos
Thank you so much!
Wow, beautiful images! I love your blog!
Thank you so much Patsy! You are welcome here anytime!!!
wonderful slice of life photos – pleasure. no gimmicks just pure.
Thank you so much! What a nice comment!!
Gorgeous photos as always! Oh, how I wish I had a cheesemonger.
I’ll land you mine! We could start a cheesemonger and butcher rental agency… (sorry, I just woke up and my sense of humour is still in bed…)
Sometimes the fog can add a lot of visual interest, as is evident in these photos 🙂 Love the textures you added too.
Thanks! I always hesitate tempering with the pictures, but when they suck, you have to do something:0)
I wish I were there! Your oyster photo looks moist and fresh and good enough to eat right off the page. Thank you for teaching me a new word, le brouillard. Pensacola is also experiencing le brouillard ce matin. 🙂
I used to live in New Orleans and I loved Pensacola!
How I miss European markets! Great images.
You need to come visit:0)
I’ll be in France in May!
You’re so lucky to have a good food market close to you. Looks gorgeous. We have one on a Saturday morning in the next village but it’s very small. As long as the cheese van is there I don’t care! The local Pyrenees cheeses are so good from there.
Pyrenees cheese is my favorite! More specifically the Basque cheeses… You need to come over one Sunday so we can go together:0)
Beautiful photos.
Thanks Julia!
I just love the word “cheesemonger” and am making it my mission to establish this very important relationship at my own local market. Merci!
Go Becky! Go! :0)
oh ça me donne l’eau à la bouche !

Merci Christine! J’ai regretté qu’il y ait tant de brouillard. Ambiance d’hiver:0)
Oui une ambiance qui donne envie de revenir au chaud pour préparer de bon petits plats avec ses achats
:0)
Your pictures make a person want to travel 🙂
Well, remember how easy it was the other day to go buy pears and cheese? It is as easy to get a plane ticket!! I’ll come pick you up at the airport!
Oh my gosh. My mind is exploding these photos are so beautiful.
Thanks Mimi, but I wish the sun had come out… I only take good pictures when I have enough light:0(
