Bonjour my friends, This week’s recipe will be another “easy-to-make” one. I was trying find a recipe that would be easy and fast to make for parents. Last weekend, we (my husband and I) were babysitting for one of our friends. I’ve done my share of babysitting over the years so I’m sadly no stranger to … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, It’s been a least 3 weeks since my last post. I try to post a recipe every week, but I have been so busy lately, blogging is sadly not at the top of my to-do list. And since I’ve been so busy, the cooking has to be easy, fast but still delicious. So … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, The other day at work, it was potluck day. I do like that I work in a place where co-workers like to share their passion for food (and other co-workers “volunteer” to taste the food!) It’s always fun to share recipes with people (I do write a food blog after all), and … Continue reading
Bonjour my Friends, What a busy couple of weeks! I had so many things to do that blogging got moved to the end of my “To Do list”! Cooking is still a priority (a girl has got to eat!) but I am falling behind on the writing part. One thing that steered me away from blogging … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, Tuesday was Mardi Gras. In France, it’s carnival day, one of the most fun days of the year for kids. While growing up, we always celebrated carnival day. In my small village, all the kids would dress up and meet in the school courtyard. Then we would all walk together through the … Continue reading
Bonjour my friends, I received two awesome cookbooks for Christmas, one of them being Jerusalem: A Cookbook by Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi. I love Middle Eastern cuisine: the spices, the flavors and the colors are so vibrant. As usual, I didn’t follow the recipe step by step, but I stayed pretty close to the original. The main … Continue reading
Bonjour my Friends, It’s beginning of January, time for good resolutions! Good resolutions mean eating healthy (at least for most people I know). “Eating Healthy” (or should I say “Keep Eating Healthy”) is on my husband’s list of New Year’s resolutions. Consequently, “Keep Cooking Healthy” is on MY list of New Year’s resolutions :). … 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, 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). By the way, when making pie crust, you can always make some extra and freeze it; it’s always good to have some on … Continue reading
