Last week, I had my first appointment with a gynecologist in France. It's recommended to have a Pap smear every three years and I was at the 3.5-year mark, so I sucked it up, made my appointment a couple of months ago and was half-anxious/half-ready to get this over with last Tuesday morning.

Spotlight on healthy brands in France: Amy’s Kitchen
I love it when brands I know from home set up shop across the Atlantic. Many brands I'd buy all the time back in the U.S. don't exist in France and aside from importing them myself or hoping My American Market has them, there's not really much you can do except try to find an equivalent.
