Soon we will be in Paris
And so will be our friends
Our friend Steven, prepared kir royale for us
And he brought foie gras, prepared two different ways

Did I tell you that our friend Steven is a very fine Chef ?
Gene served roasted chicken, I added my Mother's very special cucumber salad, quiche made with vegetables from our garden and freshly baked bread, just out of the oven.
We served a 25-year-old bottle of French wine.
For dessert we had Mousse au Chocolate made with a secret ingredient.
And we schemed and planned our trip to France

ReplyDeleteHello Jo, You're in a great spot at Flathead Lake. I remember those fabulous cherries, they are as big as apricots. Must be the Lake effect. Enjoy your gypsy life.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, Have a few more weeks before we leave for Europe, Paris and Marrakech. In the meantime it is a lot of fun making plans.

ReplyDeleteDear Lala, We arrive in Paris on the 24th of September but will fly on to Marrakech that afternoon. Sorry, we will miss you. It would have been fun to help you celebrate your birthday with a glass of kir royale.
ReplyDeleteDear Theresa, After Marrakech we have rented an apartment in Paris for a week. I am especially looking forward to meeting Frederick Almaviva of Almaviva Studios, a company which is known for their fabulous hand painted tiles and murals. I will also visit several ceramic workshops in Marrakech. I'm fascinated by how different styles of ceramic painting are really very similar.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful, lovely evening! A perfect prelude to your wonderful trip ahead. I can't wait to hear all about it! Thanks for your kind words about the Butchart trip. xo – g
ReplyDeleteFabulous food, it's making me hungry! Bon voyage!!
ReplyDeleteHappy TT at Susan's, see you later. Hugs, FABBY
How wonderful that you will get to while away in Paris!!! I love it! I wish I had the nerve to get on a plane crossing water. I miss out on SO much because of my petty phobias! :-( It is also wonderful that you have a great friend like Steven who knows how to prepare fabulous food and drinks! Enjoy your trip!
