Bonjour my friends, Bonne Année à tous! Yes, 2013 is already here. I can’t believe it came so fast and like every other year, I’m gonna be writing 2012 instead of 2013 on checks till the month of March! One of my resolutions for this year is to continue posting one recipe a week on my … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, There we are, a few days after Christmas. I love the holidays, spending time with family, eating good food, and opening presents (yes, I did get some new toys for my kitchen this year!) Of course, the holidays are always a little bittersweet. Being an expat makes you a citizen of the … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, It is officially winter. Do you know why? Because I had my first Raclette party a few weeks ago! I absolutely LOVE Raclette. For those who never had the pleasure to enjoy that delicious meal, Raclette is a cow’s milk cheese that you melt and pour on potatoes. It is usually served … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, Holiday season is here. This time of year always seems to slow down. The rhythm of life just slows down. Cold weather makes you want to stay on your couch all day, drinking hot cocoa (I wish!). I usually find a renewed passion for playing board games with family and friends. One … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, I was wondering what to cook for this week’s recipe and I remembered I had some pie crust left over from my fabulous Apple Pie (see last’s week post).

Good times with good company means good food and a lot of it! We went out to eat almost every day: breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, even … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, I hope some of you have a sweet tooth because this week’s recipe is a classic “mini cake” in France: The Madeleine. Kids (as well as adults) love them. It’s the perfect little treat to go with coffee/tea after lunch, without feeling guilty (well, if you eat the whole batch, you might … Continue reading
This week’s recipe is a perfect week night dinner. Quick to fix up, delicious and will satisfy anybody’s appetite after a long day at work. The idea is pretty simple: make a pizza using pita bread. I started making this recipe a year ago. It was one of those nights that I wanted a home … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, I came across this recipe idea the other day that required round zucchini. As usual, I never really follow recipes and just spin it my own way, according to my taste or what is in the fridge! So instead of round zucchini, I used regular zucchini. It turned out to be delicious … Continue reading
