Les Petites Mains


Silhouette

We went to the Carefree Fine Art and Wine Festival on Saturday. We didn't find any paintings that we liked and could afford but we did find Leslie Stone from California and she did this for us.
It is amazing how fast she drew Eva's profile while she sat on Mommy's lap and Daddy held a book for her to read. She really captured her expression, her long eyelashes, and those two little curls.

La Brioche


On a eu un petit probleme de levure...alors, on l'a mangee comme un petit pain. 

Victor Gilbert (1847-1933) - The Brioche

The next one will look exactly like that. Hopefully.

Boeuf en Daube

We're making it in a slow cooker, This is what it looks like to start...


That was the best beef stew EVER... Barry added some Cointreau, orange juice and orange zest 2 hours before it was done. I am going to call it our Orange beef stew or The Christmas Boeuf Bourguignon. 




Après Noël


Off to Grandma's to bring her some food.
