Everyone, write this date (May 5, 2013) down: for the first time in over two-and-a-half months, I wore something besides pants and a shirt in public. It was one of my Dijonian dresses, and it was very exciting. For me, at least.<\/p>\n
We walked across Pont de las Minimes and into town, where there was supposed to be a farmers\u2019 market. Mom declined to buy anything, so we kept going to a shop where we bought a newspaper. Although news of the flood (the water\u2019s gone down about five feet already) was splashed across the first four pages, Semur-en-Auxois didn\u2019t make any of the pictures\u2014or the article, for that matter.<\/p>\n
Oh, well.<\/p>\n
After chilling in the house for a while and getting diesel for the car, we walked down the river to a barricade because the road beyond it was in a state of disrepair.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo much for our walk,\u201d Mom said.<\/p>\n
Back at the house, Mom prepared a supper of pizza, salad, and zucchini. None of it had enough vinegar.<\/p>\n
Ciao!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
