Right now, we are staying with family and friends in the adorable little town of Clisson, France. My older sister, Lindsay, is getting married to her wonderful fiance Dav tomorrow. Dav is from here and it has been really fun to meet his family and friends and try our best to communicate in one another's language. We have been enjoying a lot of French food and culture while we are here, and it is really cool to reunite with family after our long time away in Australia.
Last night we had a "pairing" at Dav's mother's 200 year old apartment. It was really fun! We had 3 courses of different cheeses (there are about 500 varieties of cheese in France!!) that were beautifully paired with a different wine to complement that course. The finish was a gorgeous dessert she made...chocolate mousse and the best tiramisu i have ever had! Pictures coming later for the pairing party.
At Carcassonne.
