Mimi the Magnificent

  1. She bought a large crate of oranges and makes fresh squeezed orange juice for breakfast every morning.
  2. For gouter, she heats water adds fresh squeezed lemon + swiss honey to make a nice 'tea'. Oh and also it's important to say that she brought the tiniest/juiciest/fragrant lemons from EGYPT (she was there last week before she came to Switzerland). Who does that? Mimi. Amazing.
  3. She cooks excellent meals for dinner, which means great leftovers for lunch.
  4. She also makes homemade jams in Paris.
  5. She paints ceramic plates, bowls and tea cups.
  6. She embroiders pillow cases and seat cushions
