A fine Mèze #15

We’d overindulged at Rive Gauche Saturday night. Eating a huge, creamy three course feast late in the evening, me finishing the second half of Sylvie’s creme brûlée, together with both halves of mine, we foolishly went straight to bed, both waking at 4am feeling very nauseous.

Perhaps our much awaited Sunday lunch might have to be cancelled? We waited..... and were both OK just in time. My wonderful seafood lunch finale was cherry cake... with pear and chocolate cake for Sylvie.

Later we had delicious icecreams at Bouzigues. “And that’s what done me in!” she declared, feeling ill again later.

    Her very words... loosely borrowed from My Fair Lady, and said with a smile. 😊

    Haha. I love that scene. "Them she lived with would have killed her for a hat pin let alone a hat!"
