Episode #1- Meet les Dames du Paradis
The Art of Lost Living in Southwest France
Listen here to Episode #1 as we introduce ourselves, the Dames du Paradis, and the Art of Lost Living Southwest France.
In the first episode of the Dames du Paradis Podcast, Tamsin Jardinier and Kate Hill introduce you to a small quiet corner of Southwest France, a few villages strung along the Garonne River valley, and the inspiration for starting a podcast about the Art of Lost Living. Sit next to the gently crackling fire on a cold February day, listen in and consider your own life and how you find quiet inspiration in the daily practice of cooking, gardening, working, creating, and the lively conversations that grow out of cake and coffee.
We invite you to make suggestions for future episodes or anything you would like to bring up; after all, you, too, are part of this conversation …and cake. Leave your topic ideas in the comments below.

Recipe: Gluten Free Galette des Rois
While this was featured in early January, I make this little almond flour cake over and over.
Whisk 4 whole eggs with
80 g powdered sugar until pale and light
Add 200 g almond powder and
80 g cooled melted butter.
Bake for 25/30 minutes at 180°C/ 350°F degrees in a pan lined with parchment paper. Diameter 18 cms/8 in. pan
The recipe does not contain flour, the almond powder replaces it.

I have been enjoying your various posts for a while Tamsin and I am really pleased to be in on episode 1# here..I miss living in France so much, and I can't seem to find the same feelings here at all. So loved listening.
I loved this! Such a wonderful conversation.
