Zoe Pascale was adopted by her French Grandma when she was first born. Madame Laurens who has helped us take care of our house since we bought it fell in love and has befriended zoe with her charm, love, and great food. Every Friday Zoe is picked up from school and goes to Madame Laurens (who Zoe now calls Claudine, while we still call her madame- go figure?) for a five course meal and a little afternoon conversation about the TV game show they choose to watch.
