Living la vie de château at Château Bosgouet in Normandy, Jane Webster and her Australian family have embraced the traditions of the French table with surprise and delight at each turn, from navigating the market to setting the table to making the most of a vegetable garden, and their adventures are captured here by the sophisticated eye of photographer Robyn Lea.

French Ties
'When we found this run-down château of Bosgouet, we'd been dreaming of buying a house in France for some time. We'd become obsessed with the idea of living in the French countryside, of learning a new language and traditions, and of giving our children a new perspective on the world. In 2005, we decided that we'd dreamed about it for long enough and needed to take the plunge . . . The adventure brought us together as a family more strongly than ever, and we found a sense of harmony here in the French countryside that had been hard to maintain at home in Australia.' After years of painstaking work renovating an old château in Normandy, Jane Webster has found her bearings, running The French Table over the summers and juggling family life across two countries year-round. In this, her second book, she offers us a glimpse into life as a local in a French village- keeping house, visiting the markets, restoring the walled kitchen garden, and indulging her passion for 'antiquing' at flea markets and antique fairs. Above all, she shares the simple pleasure of cooking for family and friends - with more than 40 divine regional recipes

Daddy Long-Legs
The first Wednesday in every month was a Perfectly Awful Day-a day to be awaited withdread, endured with courage and forgotten with haste. Every floor must be spotless, everychair dustless, and every bed without a wrinkle. Ninety-seven squirming little orphansmust be scrubbed and combed and buttoned into freshly starched ginghams; and allninety-seven reminded of their manners, and told to say, "Yes, sir," "No, sir," whenever aTrustee spoke.It was a distressing time; and poor Jerusha Abbott, being the oldest orphan, had to bear thebrunt of it. But this particular first Wednesday, like its predecessors, finally dragged itselfto a close. Jerusha escaped from the pantry where she had been making sandwiches for theasylum's guests, and turned upstairs to accomplish her regular work. Her special care wasroom F, where eleven little tots, from four to seven, occupied eleven little cots set in a row.Jerusha assembled her charges, straightened their rumpled frocks, wiped their noses, andstarted them in an orderly and willing line toward the dining-room to engage themselvesfor a blessed half hour with bread and milk and prune pudding.
