Welcome to Petit Minou en Bretagne



I moved to this lovely part of Brittany at the end of the summer in 2008 with my husband and my two daughters

We have two holiday gites and hope to have lots of visitors in the years to come

Life here is slower than it used to be in England but my days are so much busier - looking after our two Ouessant sheep, our chickens, geese, ducks and seven cats; trying out new recipes using our freshly grown veggies, trying to keep up with the weeding and the the garden and keeping the gites in tip top condition ready for our visitors

If I have any spare time I make handmade greetings cards and gifts and have just opened an Etsy shop - visit it here

I also enjoy taking photographs and have recently joined Flickr so hopefully I will post some of my shots on here too

This is intended to be my blog about our new life here in Brittany - I really must try to make time for regular updates but seem to be failing miserably

Storm clouds gathering


Storm brewing, originally uploaded by Petit Minou.
My husband broke his arm last summer, the day before our first visitors of the season were due to arrive. He ended up with a pin in his arm and I ended up having quite a busy summer

Anyway, we were on our way home from his latest hospital check up last week, and stumbled upon this heavenly little granite chapel which has been recently restored

It is only about 10 minutes from our house but down a lane we hadn't previously explored, so you can imagine our joy when we found this little gem
