Fin Gourmet (Foodies)

Gilles and Francine enjoy cooking (and eating) as much as we do and invited us to dinner Valentines evening. What an "event"! We had some wonderful food we had never eaten before so that was fun. We had a little discussion about the tasty appetizer of cooked honey green raisins with bleu cheese on a piece of baguette toast. Gilles explained he cut the green raisins in half (and I'm thinking green? cut in half?) and then we all realized in French they are raisins, in English they are grapes!!! I love learning French by eating it!! Thanks, Francine and Gilles, the food was wonderful, the presentation gorgeous, the conversation fun, and we had a great evening.
