A Birthday Message!


NOUVELLE OPTION: Version française

My appetite for Italy


My friends, my loved ones,

 

Another birthday during a pandemic! This time, I have a lot to do to prepare the big move to Saint-Lazare.


And we're off!





Good news, I have the results for the “Color of my new house” contest:

 

Light yellow   33%

Mimosa           67%

 

Therefore, the color will be Mimosa, but since I want an Italian theme for the decoration of my new home, let's call the color "Spritz" to honor the Amalfi Coast!

 

Spritz


 

Now a tradition, I am writing to you on my birthday, but this time not from the Spiagga Grande of Positano lined with beautiful Italians, nor from Piazza Navona in Rome sipping an Aperol Spritz, nor from a vaporetto gliding under the Ponte di Rialto of Venice, but actually from Saint-Sauveur, surrounded by wild turkeys! The pandemic is really destroying my international jet set life! 😜


                              


                              


                              


Mamie and Dieter’s property has become a safe haven for the surrounding turkeys, but I do hope that next year I will be surrounded by horses!



I am celebrating this beautiful day with a meal fit for a king prepared by the Au Pied de Cochon sugar shack!

 

On the menu


Pea soup from the Cabane d'à côté
Eggs in a pot, bacon, potatoes
Buckwheat pancakes
Foie gras parfait - maple jelly
Ham and broth
Coleslaw

Duck baked beans - pork meatballs
Maple sirup crème brulée


So, for my birthday, I wish not to suffer from an enlarged liver 🙏 and I wish you, my friends, my loved ones, a wonderful time!

 

Big kiss!
