Comments: My husband, Ivan, and I moved to Corsica from Madagascar eleven years ago on a whim. We restored an abandoned convent and saved the thousand-year-old olive grove surrounding it. The fact that I live in the country - with the luxury of having a garden full of wonderful ingredients - makes it easy for me to love cooking. I strive to teach my three little girls how to take pleasure in the simple, good things in life.
