Sophie Dix fled Stuttgart with her brother as the Nazi regime gained power in Germany. Now, with her brother gone and her adopted home city of Paris conquered by the Reich, Sophie reluctantly accepts a position restoring damaged art at the Jeu de Paume museum under the supervision of the ERRโa German art commission using the museum as a repository for art theyโve looted from Jewish families.
Fabienne Brandt was a rising star in the Parisian bohemian arts movement until the Nazis put a stop to so-called โdegenerateโ modern art. Still mourning the loss of her firebrand husband, sheโs resolved to muddle her way through the occupation in whatever way she canโuntil her estranged sister-in-law, Sophie, arrives at her door with a stolen painting in hand.
Soon the two women embark upon a plan to save Parisโs โdegenerates,โ working beneath the noses of Germanyโs top art connoisseurs to replace the paintings in the Jeu de Paume with skillful forgeriesโbut how long can Sophie and Fabienne sustain their masterful illusion?

Yesterday
Saturday I came across this fabulous Eggs in a Bagel Hole recipe from Moribyan! They were super easy to put together and make and luckily I had just the right amount of eggs too. as soon as they were out of the oven, my family completely gobbled them up and these were immediately added to our โmake againโ list. I also have to brag about the picture above, because my good pictures are always horrible and this one looks amazing!
