WEATHER REPORT

from

BIARRITZ

il PLEUT 

encore

so what else is new

if you get lemons........

MANGEZ
EAT

La Nourriture

Vive la Différence

Radishes are black
Laitues are little green jewels;

but 
touching the vegetables is severely FROWNED upon

there are so many types of Cheese you get dizzy

Figs come on a string

Coquilles St. Jacques wear little coral berets

Les Poulets arrive dressed formally for Le Dîner with their heads feet and special plummage

I'm still searching for the best Croissant.....tous les jours je cherche, j'essaye

c'est très difficile

Cakes are works of art
Duck fat is the graisse de choix, les canards ne fument pas!

Apples Belchard have wrinkles

et 

the jambes of Jambons wear shoes

 BOIRE

SOIS HEUREUX

et poursuivre (carry on)

EXTRAIT du JOURNAL de SALLY MARA

Nobody understands the Basque language .....

tira egun barria dugu guar-esan zion Chicken Littlek

bere bukuari espalor......

et tout le monde 

regards me suspiciously, somehow they know I'm an étranger 

Gateaux Basques, ain't so pretty but they sure taste good

at vernissages (openings)

vraiment c'est de bons trucs

(they only serve the good stuff)

 Ici, English dogs ne parle pas d'anglais

the Biarritz Rochers (rocks) all have names

Trees get a coupe au bal (buzz cut) and hold hands

and 

if you go to the Marché Quintao

you can hear the story of why small sugary delicious types of beignets are called:

Pet-de-Nonne

(nun's farts)

so much to do, so little time

tomorrow there will be another croissant to taste

that slippery slope, CHOCOLAT to discover

and maybe even a little soleil

RECETTE DU JOUR

self evident

Coming up!
