(If I can't have too many truffles, I'll do without truffles.)

Bonjour!
I've decided to jump on the blog bandwagon. Nevermind that I might be, literally, the last lass on Earth to creative a blog for herself. I've decided to call mine Too Many Truffles, after a lovely Colette quote: “If I can’t have too many truffles, I'll do without truffles." Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette, a slightly trollopy French femme (she managed to have an affair with her stepson, not to mention a slew of women), wrote sexy, feminist tomes in the early 1900s. Besides the numerous love affairs, she's best known for Gigi and The Vagabond. I dig her sass, her joie de vivre, and her devil-may-care rakishness. Excess — in books, travel, food, love or expression — can't be all that bad. So my motto for this site? Never be afraid to eat too many truffles (as long as you're willing to do too many sit-ups!)
