In the afternoon I finally got around to baking our Christmas cake; the same one as usual ….. Delia’s Creole Christmas Cake. At least I did manage to soak the fruit in a variety of alcohol for over a week. No sooner than it was out of the oven than a Chocolate Banana Cake went in which was my contribution to this evening’s meal at Michel’s. Had a pleasant evening with the new love of his life and a friend of hers who is Brazilian but lives in Spain. Another chance to try and get a few words of Spanish to pass my lips.
Welcome to all of you out there who might be interested to know about life chez nous. Hopefully, some of you will have happy memories of the house and the village and for those of our friends who have not yet made it over here, perhaps this blog will show them what they are missing! Click on the photos to enlarge them and please feel free to comment. A first name would be great so we're not left wondering who "anonymous" is! À bientôt et bonne navigation!
