Saturday Marche & Dinner

Saturday morning began with the marche again, and Heather ordered our favorite tapenade from the vendor we had met the week before. He's quite patient as the kids practice their French! We also bought unpasteurized fromage de chevre and saucisson sec. After the kids and Derek left to walk home, I stayed a bit longer to finish shopping and met Pascal Loriot, the town's veterinarian, since his store front is right next to the marche. His family is friends with my partner Maryline, and so he helped me with my questions about Tucker, then invited our family to come for dinner on Monday!

Saturday evening we spent with neighbors Florence & Eric Baratra and their kids. For future reference, I will be spending time cooking with Florence, as dinner was delicieux! Rillettes de saumon (gotta get that recipe), lamb cooked in a Le Creuset pot, and chocolate cake AND flan for dessert.
