European Adventures!

          Hi, all! If you are wondering why I have not been able to post in a while, it is because I am off on a month long adventure around Europe! I am in France for the most part and really enjoying all of the food adventures it holds. I cannot wait to try some of things I have seen and tried when I get back! But for now, I will just fill you in on some tempting treats...

     

           My first pastry in France- a Paris Brest :) Pate Choux filled with a praline pastry cream. I was in a very happy place when I ate this.

        This apple plum crumble was from a cafe in Dublin called "Queen of Tarts." I could have eaten a bowlful of their whipped cream...

         This was a cake I made for my hosts in Dordogne. One of them turned 58 and wanted a classic American dessert. It's a yellow cake with chocolate sour cream icing. The strawberries are from their organic farm :) I am absolutely in love with this place!

         If you want to see some of the other delicious foods I have tried or made, you can like Boulder Butter on Facebook (there is even a quick recipe posted for a peach crisp I made for of my hosts in Lyon!) It is a great way to get some extra updates.

                  

        Happy summer adventures and relaxing evenings to all! Chin Chin!
