Toques Junior Apero
Ben’s cooking class had an apero, and they all prepared the food that was served. Quite impressive, and tasty! We’re all super happy to have found him a cooking activity. It was actually harder than expected.
Miam Festival
Ce deuxième Miam Festival réunit une cinquantaine d’artistes du goût sélectionnés aux petits oignons. La crème de la crème des restaurateurs, traiteurs, foodtrucks, artisans et producteurs locaux vous régalent pendant trois jours, au cœur de Lausanne.
Caves Ouvertes 2018
This year, we only did 5 caves (mainly because of Arvinis) but we tried to focus on quality over quantity. Ben gave 4 stars to Crans, Meylan and Cruchon.
Jardins des Iris, Vullierens
We went to the Chateau de Vullierens. They have 10 themed gardens, 72 sculptures and 30 hectares of grounds that can be visited. The old wine caves have also been recently renovated and are open for a visit. All in all, a nice day to spend a morning (if you can manage to have a non-grumpy child).

Hit him! HIIIIIIT HIMMMMMMM!
Ben wanted to go on the bumber cars. Note, bumber cars, not dodgems. Switzerland is not ruled by a bunch of elf’n’safety pansies. At first, he was all “nooooooooooooooooooooooooo”. After a couple of minutes, he turned into a blood-thirsty maniac who was yelling “HIT HIIIIM! HE LIKES IT!!”
Tulips in Morges, 2018
A nice genteel day
We all went out for a walk to see the potters at the tulip fest. The cold weather we had recently means that the tulips are a bit behind schedule for the flowering, but it was still a gorgeous day, if only slightly marred by the alternatively whiny and I-want-to-buy-this bean. We took a train to Lausanne to browse a few shops and then go to our favourite brasserie for dinner. Again, very civilised.
For the most part.
My supermarket is better than yours
Because it has a passive-aggressive furry handing out samples.
