Once in a while, I happen upon a blog that I can’t believe exists it’s so good. This was the case yesterday when I discovered Manger. It’s written by Mimi Thorisson, a stunningly beautiful woman of French and Chinese descent who currently resides in the French countryside with her photographer husband, four kids and 14 dogs! She loves to cook and her blog is a curation of her fanciful recipes. Remember when I said I wanted to be Lena. Well I changed my mind. I want to be Mimi. Go get lost in her world!

Thanks for the share- love your blog and her as well. Great pics on both
Wow- her photography is stunning. Absolutely stunning, and yeah- sometimes I come across a blog that is so beautiful it makes me wonder how the person can keep it up. I think I need to take photography classes.
Hi there. I just found your blog, and I’m already blown away. (And I feel a little better about having three dogs, seeing that you do too and that this stunning, worldly woman has 14.)
She’s a stunner along with that blog of hers! Wowie! Gorgeous works of photography too! Her life, family and food looks amazerrrnuts!
Some of these photos seem oddly “inspired” by the work of Katie Quinn Davies. If you want to see a truly fabulous food blog, take a look at “What Katie Ate.” Not affiliated in any way, but as both a photographer and a foodie, I was blown away by Ms. Davies’ work. I saw her photos and, for the first time in many years, found myself thinking ‘damn, I wish I’d shot that!’
I still stalk What Katie Ate. The photography is beautiful!
Dude. She is beautiful and her blog…oh my. I want to be her too. And I want to be Jessie (above). Haha. 🙂
Yeah seriously!?! Is she for real? I want 14 dogs lol. Wow. Thanks for sharing…going over there now to be more amazed.
Wow, 14 dogs?! What a busy life she has…and look at her, she looks like a model!

I don’t even know what to do with my self right now!!! She’s incredibly beautiful and her life is breathtaking.
Whoa! A. She is GORGEOUS B. has a dream life and C. I am so jealous of the 14 dogs!!! Great find. xox
Wow, can’t wait to check it out! It looks right out of one of my favorite movies…except when I leave movies, I know they are just movies. In this case, I need to convince myself that it’s OK not to be and live like that! 🙂
Oh wow! I can’t wait to check this out.
I was jealous of her everything up until the 14 dogs. Imagine all the poop you’d have to pick up. That’s like a full-time job. But I guess in the French countryside I guess even she can poop outside.
Wow ! She’s gorgeous and those photos look magical…amazing !!

Son of a $*%&#! Why don’t I live in the French county side, look like a supermodel, and eat ridiculously amazing food?!?! You’re right, I can’t believe this even exists and blows my theory right out of the water that everyone has problems. I bet she doesn’t have a ONE! (c; Totally agree that her life looks like a Vogue spread.

What? you don’t want to be Jessie?! I’m 30 years old and live in my parent’s guest bedroom, that doesn’t speak to you????
That woman is stunning, her life looks like a Vogue spread.
hahahaha, love this reply.
this post is awesome, she is probably half alien or something… no one human can be that beautiful. -l
