Jambon/Brocante

We went to the Jambon Brocante (Ham and Antiques) experience today, which Chloe had fortuitously seen the sign for yesterday as we came back from Ombleze. It was quite nice, with a lot of deals to be had, just like the last one that we went to. There some really nice armoires and bonnetiers for not too much money. Here's chloe gazing longingly at one

There was also the normal selection of random and inexplicable things like tortoise shells

rodents with glasses

and creepy mannequins


But there were also some great food stands with Jambon (duh!), olives and bread


I'm going to miss all of this.

There was one stand which had an impressive selection of old french tools, and... duck decoy heads?!

We bought a cool pair of old scissors at this stand. Also, after circling back twice, we decided to buy this beautiful walnut coffee table

for 530 euro, delivered. Its a beautiful table, and even has a drawer on one end.
On our way back home, we stumbled on a pottery installation, which was mostly uninteresting, except for a demonstration on how they make big clay jugs
