Now this is fresh!


fresh eggs from a neighbour in Lessy
This morning,  I  opened the door to the hallway 
 and  saw Marie, Rachel's mom,  walking by---
 on her way out  to "faire les courses."(do shopping)   
"Would like some fresh eggs?""Sure," I said.  
Thirty minutes later,  Marie knocked on our door,
presented with me with  half a dozen eggs and said,   
 "1 euro 55 centime."  I opened  the carton and lo and behold, discovered a feather.  Now that is what I call fresh.  

 A woman just down the street from us  has hens.  I need
to go meet  the mothers of  this very important crêpe ingredient.

Speaking of crêpes, I met Tonya in Metz today
at the St. Malo Crêperie.
There must be 50 different
crêpes on the menu.  Salty, sweet and
even drizzled with liquor then set on fire.
Crêpes et galettes en tous genresDécouvrez nos crêpes sucrées, flambées

This menu is an example of the many crêpes flambées ; 
I resisted the temptation for a crêpe flambée as I was driving
and about to pick up Alec from school!  Next time I visit
Tonya I'll have to take the bus into town.
