Fresh pasta from Varen

Poster for pasta: sorry for photo M. Johnstone
For a few days we have wondered why a house on the outskirts of Varen had suddenly had a huge sign "BONHEUR DE PATES" painted on the wall. Was it "pâtes"  or "pâtés", but it turns out to be the former, pasta as we say in English (Italian really). A local inhabitant Anne Prat has been making a choice of home made pasta and marketing them via a stall in St Antonin and various outlets including the boulangerie in Varen.
