The memoir of a young diplomat's wife who must reinvent her dream of living in Paris--one dish at a time

When journalist Ann Mah's diplomat husband is given a three-year assignment in Paris, Ann is overjoyed. A lifelong foodie and Francophile, she immediately begins plotting gastronomic adventures deux. Then her husband is called away to Iraq on a year-long post--alone. Suddenly, Ann's vision of a romantic sojourn in the City of Light is turned upside down.

So, not unlike another diplomatic wife, Julia Child, Ann must find a life for herself in a new city. Journeying through Paris and the surrounding regions of France, Ann combats her loneliness by seeking out the perfect pain au chocolat and learning the way the andouillette sausage is really made. She explores the history and taste of everything from boeuf Bourguignon to soupe au pistou to the crispiest of buckwheat crepes. And somewhere between Paris and the south of France, she uncovers a few of life's truths.

Like Sarah Turnbull's Almost French and Julie Powell's New York Times bestseller Julie and Julia, Mastering the Art of French Eating is interwoven with the lively characters Ann meets and the traditional recipes she samples. Both funny and intelligent, this is a story about love--of food, family, and France.

Wife and cat approved!!!
Color: Grey, Size: Queen, Color: Grey, Size: Queen
The BEDELITE Fluffy Queen Comforter has been a great addition to our bedroom. It has a soft, plush feel right out of the bag and fluffs up nicely once laid out. It strikes a nice balance of being lightweight while still keeping us warm and cozy, which is perfect for year-round use. My wife immediately noticed how soft it felt, and it really does make the bed feel more inviting at the end of the day. What surprised me most is how much everyone in the house seems to love it—our cats practically live on the bed now because of how comfortable it is. The fabric feels gentle against the skin, and it doesn’t have that scratchy or noisy texture some budget comforters do. Overall, it’s a cozy, well-made option that delivers good warmth and comfort at a reasonable price.

Soft, Warm & Cozy
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Queen
The BEDELITE Fluffy Queen Comforter Set is absolutely wonderful. I purchased it for my 75-year-old mom during her visit to Oregon, where the weather can be quite cool, and it was the perfect choice. The sherpa material is unbelievably soft and cozy without being too heavy. It kept her warm and comfortable, especially in the evenings, and she commented multiple times on how soft and luxurious it felt. The quality is excellent, and it looks great on the bed as well. If you’re looking for a warm, plush comforter that’s gentle, cozy, and ideal for cooler climates or older guests, this set is a fantastic purchase. We’re very happy with it and would definitely buy it again.

Review of bedlite fluffy comforter
Color: Grey, Size: Twin
The bed light fluffy twin comforter was terrific and well-made. I would say, however, as a person who runs cold that I needed to put an extra blanket on top of it. The comforter is warm for the spring and fall, but not for the winter. The other thing to mention is, it is a light comforter, and not a thick comforter for the winter. Overall, I would recommend the comforter is worth the value of the money you paid for it.

big, comfy, and warm!
Color: Black, Size: Queen
very soft and comfortable, perfect for cold winter nights! it's just had to wash at home since it's so thick and big. if you have a big washer and dryer, i'd recommend it, but if not be prepared to go to the laundry mat every time you want to wash your bedding.
