“Je Suis…”
In English, it means “I am.”
Whenever I go to anything remotely like a brocante, I am instantly drawn into a world of irresistible allure – my whole body fizzes with excitement.
A friend in my hometown in Willows described it as:
“It is like being junk drunk.”
JUNK DRUNK
I am.
Whether I’m digging through a dusty box in the middle of nowhere, braving the elements—such as an attic covered in cobwebs, rain, cold, or sun hot as hell—call it my Vogue.
Most would say it was my happy place.
Since I do not drink “junk drunk,” it is.
Once the Brocante Bug bites, there’s no cure but to return for more.
