Le francais!

The French!

So I'm a bit bored and there is nothing else to tell you so I thought I would blab a little about French things...

Food - for more information see Moniques blog - but it isnt as bad as i thought. My family eats reasonably normally, but I am very glad I am vego! (Kasey thinks she ate pigs intestines last week!) So at home for dinner I have been having lots of soup (yummy especially when it's freezing, which is always!), salad (this is odd - its either just sticks of carrot and cucumber - or separate bowls (giant bowls) of grated carrot, grated cabbage and lettuce, they never mix anything) and eggs. We have also had pikelets for dinner (which we made on the table with a electric type frypan with 6 circles) with pesto and dips and things. The other night we had mushy stuff which i believe was a combination of potato and cheese but i coudlnt be sure, it was sooooo sticky! Last night we had pasta - yay! (with a cheese/cream sauce) Other favourites included the savoury crepes with mushroom and onion - galettes!

For breakfast i feel obliged to have muesli, since they bought 3 different types just for me. No one else eats it! They have 'tartines', which is whit bread toasted with either slabs of butter or mountains of nutella, or yogurt, or fruit or waffles with nutella. (They love nutella!)

Hands are freezing, so i will continue for other aspects of Frenchness later...
