Love the new blog. Congrats on a new start!
I found your blog just before leaving for Paris and I really enjoyed it! I’m in Paris until next Tues.July 21…and am wondering what foods i.e. condiments,sugar even wine,you would suggest I bring back to North America with me that Iwon’t be able to buy there. I live in Montreal Canada, so have some access to French foods but I can see SO
MUCH here that I don’t know about.
Thanks for your advice…and I will definitely spread the word about your blog!

Hello Barbarba
I am one of those DL linked new readers of yours and just love your blog. All the very Best from Rome, Donatella
Just found your blog, looking for a creme de marron recipe. Love it. I went to college in Paris many decades ago and your photos and posts bring back great memories.
Do you have a good recipe for vin chaud?
