Ooh la la...

Hello Everyone,

Nothing much happening around here. The only thing, "C" had to cook something today for French class. Yes, you read that right, I didn't know learning a language required home cooking...ha. She initially wanted to cook this elaborate recipe but it was too much for a school night. Maybe one weekend she can try it. But she cooked something called ' Clafoutis Bourguignon'. You can search the name and find the recipe on frenchselections.com or type the name and search images for a picture. It can be made with fresh cherries, apples or pears. We chose apples since they had no cherries at the grocery store. She has to use poster board to put pictures of ingredients and finished product and label it in French.
It looks good so maybe it will taste good too. She has to take it to school so we can't have any :(
If she likes it we'll make another one. Probably try it with cherries when they have some in the store.

Mom, I was afraid it was going to turn out Jill wasn't Katherine's daughter...ha.

I'll go now,
Take care,
Sheila

  1. Ah, j'taime beaucoup! French class, the only class I came close to failing. The only class I ever had with my future wife, she kept me so distracted. I made a C, I never understood that, I did not distract her too much, she made an A.
    That sounds like a very good way to teach. Object lessons stick longer than a lecture. Adds some variety to the class also. Hope all went well.

  5. I can't believe how school has
    changed. Since I don't cook much
    anymore I know I couldn't cook
    in French. I think I will take
    the eyes out of my stove and get
    some beautiful potted plants to
    dress up the Kitchen.
