Dressing Up
Halloween is not at all a big deal in France. You may get a few trick-or-treaters. I think the bell rang, maybe, six times? And of course there were the sweet little pumpkins with their fathers, as well as the…Read more ›

Café de la Jatte
My husband and I celebrated thirteen years of marriage by shipping our angels off to their grandparents, who stoically bore the exceptional amount of noise very small people can make. On Sunday night we went to see Mortal Instruments and…Read more ›

Cherry Clafoutis
Clafoutis comes from the Limousin region of the southwest of France. It’s sometimes spelled without the “s” at the end, but the correct spelling is clafoutis, pronounced, klah-foo-tee, with an equal accent on each syllable. There are many varying recipes…Read more ›
