Here in France, we like to eat. And boy do we eat well :)
A day of food:
Lunch at Marché des Chartrons:
----Six large oysters from Cap Ferret, dribbled with lemon juice, along with a glass of white wine and some bread (complet, kind of an all natural and more healthy bread)
----Followed with about 500 grams of fresh Spanish strawberries, shared between Kim and I
Tradition of Seafood Sunday has been started. Two Sundays in a row, baby! I love oysters so much. Something about the way they are served and eaten is just mmmm. Pick up the shell, top it with a little lemon juice, cut the oyster from the muscle attaching it to the shell, put the shell to your mouth and slip the oyster right in there. Then there's the amazing taste of salt water (reminds me of home every time), lemon, and fruit de mer, chew to your heart's desire, swallow, take a sip of white wine, follow it with a little bread maybe. Oh, and can't forget to detach the muscle from the shell. Very creamy and good as well.
Hung out a little on the quai with Kim and a couple of her French friends before heading back to her place to watch the second half of Gladiator, which we had started last night. After the movie we made brownies, instant ja jang myun (type of Korean noodles), and started on some tea eggs (man, I love tea eggs). Now I'm back at my place wondering what to make for dinner...
Saturday I did a little shopping, bought a cute pencil case from Virgin Megastore and a saucy pair of earrings at a bijouterie.We wanted to do more but got started a little too late and all the stores were closing. So tomorrow we're setting out a little earlier to do the a little more!
Oh did I mention, IT'S SPRING BREAK, BABY!!!!
I'm going to see this guy in concert end of May :)
