Certain editions of this series are more robust than others and that is certainly the case with Weekend Links Week 29. There’s lots of good information regarding the health pass which is important to know if you’re traveling to France soon. Some of my favorite articles include an interview with Omar Sy from Lupin, the best food lessons from a French mother-in-law, news on a new Julia Child documentary, baguette secrets and photos of the beautiful Château du Grand-Lucé.
