Trip to the Market


Today we got hungry so we stopped work early and walked to the near by town of Mouans-Sarteux. We were told to turn right at the McDonald’s and when we got to the McDonald’s we saw this sign advertising their latest deal; the cheese burger. You can get it with a huge slice of brie cheese, cantal cheese (?), or a bleu cheese. What can I say, Europe loves their cheese.


We thought that Mociute would like to see this photo. On the plane ride to France we saw this ad in a magazine to visit Vilnius, Lithuania. We didn’t know Vilnius was so popular. Quite the surprise.

After dinner Regi asked if we could use some jam for the crepes that we wanted to make. To our delight, they gave us Nutella! I really wanted to buy some at the market. Regi made me a lovely bowl of strawberry, banana, sour cream, and Nutella. At the market we really wanted yogurt but they only sold it in small individual contains. Those were way too small for the amount of yogurt that Regi and I would eat. We needed a big container. They had only a few larger containers but we couldn’t decipher what they contained. So we picked one only to discover that it was sour cream. Now we are inventing new ways to use sour cream. It fits fairly well with fruit and if you mix it into the crepe batter it makes it quite nice.



Au Revoir

Dear Bernard and Regi:
I hope this works and you receive my mail. I did write you an e-mail this morning; be sure to read it!
Nutella and Bree taste good but is not on the "health-list" as you might know. Enjoy sedom!

We had a very powerful storm last night and elektricity went out. I felt comforted to know, God will send the sun and lighten up the dark morning.

It's much better now and the strong wind came to a hold.
In my earlier e-mail is the rest of the story.

Stay well and happy.
Much Love from Mama and Papa who is still in the dreamland.
