Synopsis
French women didn't invent happiness. But they know a thing or two about joie de vivre--being alive to each delicious moment. As a young girl, Jamie Cat Callan was fascinated by her French grandmother. Though she had little money, Jamie's grand-m re ate well, dressed well, and took joy in simple, everyday pleasures. As Jamie journeyed through France as an adult, she gained more insight into the differences between French and American women. French women--whether doctors, shop owners, or housewives--don't worry about being thin enough, young enough, or accomplished enough. They age gracefully and celebrate their bodies. They know how to balance their lives--to love food without overeating, to work hard but not too much, to relish friends and family, and still make time for themselves. Now Jamie draws on everything French women have taught her and shows you how to: Buy and consume less--and enjoy more Look like a million Euros on a few francs Find time to be alone Flirt la fran aise Rediscover your own mystery Perfection isn't attainable, but happiness always is. And this uplifting, revelatory book shows every woman how to embrace it--and savor it., "With warmth and sincerity, Callan shares that most precious of French life lessons--the art of saying 'enough.' "--Elizabeth Bard, author of Lunch in Paris French women didn't invent happiness. But they know a thing or two about joie de vivre--being alive to each delicious moment.

Voilà!" --Karen Karbo, author of The Gospel According to Coco Chanel, As a middle-aged woman living in youth-obsessed America, Jamie Cat Callan went to France to find answers for aging gracefully and to find joy in her imperfect body. Her mission was not to find the Fountain of Youth, but to find the Fountain of Happiness. From the point-of-view of an innocent abroad - searching for inspiration from the French and particularly French women - Bonjour, Happiness! is Callan's journey through France as she struggles with weight, body image, accepting middle age, coping with a new marriage at 50 and rediscovering her French heritage.
