The Kale Project

Deux Choux

By

Today was a big day.

We brought home our little girl, Grady Philippa Margaret Heimann from the Clinique Saint-Thèrese. She was born Saturday, March 14th at 8pm and weighed 3.23 kilos/7.1 pounds & was 51 cm/20 inches. We are (as every parent is) in love with her even though all she does right now is sleep. But when she does open her eyes, it is instant adoration.

Today also is the launch of my book! Savez-vous manger les choux is out today. I’m not exactly sure which stores it is available in but most likely FNAC etc. You can also buy it on Amazon.

So voilà: Two babies. Two choux. One which I created & developed in only 3-4 weeks and then clearly, the more important one who grew inside me for almost 10 months and took a long (16 hours no drugs!) labor to bring her into the world.
