French Cooking - Part Two

You should come visit me tomorrow. Instead of coffee and dessert, you’ll have the opportunity to try some leftover Zucchini Vichyssoise and Rack of Lamb Persillade with French bread and goat cheese. And don’t forget about those oyster mushrooms in cream sauce and yellow tomato salad with basil. Out of this world. What an amazing meal at Edwards. A soufflé doesn’t have any flour in it. Did you already know that? I bet you did. Our soufflé had apricots that softened in sweet orange juice. Lots of courses to French meals with small portions. That’s what it’s about. Edward and I worked well together in the kitchen. His wife joked that Edward is the only person she knows who reads cook books in bed.

Roger stayed home to watch Alan so I could participate in this little adventure. I felt bad. When I came home, he was eating a plate of plain pasta with a cheese I couldn’t identify.

Photos hopefully posted on Sunday.

Tomorrow’s cuisine will definitely take a different turn with a tentative trip to the county fair. (deep fried Oreo’s anyone?)

Hope you survived the heat!
