Coming soon: the brioche-powered car...

So it's a new week.

The French are continuing to strike in protest against the retirement reforms.

Things aren't really showing any sign of settling down.

The strike action has now reached France's petrol refineries.  

Le résultat?  

Motorists are driving around in a frenzy trying to find a gas station that still has some fuel left.

In addition,

train travelers are getting stranded, 

high school students are happily cutting class to march in the street

& people are generally pretty upset.

Et moi? 

As long as the bakeries don't strike, I'm happy.

Behold the brioche we had at breakfast Saturday morning!
