THIS MUST BE PARIS - THOSE LOOK LIKE SNAILS

When we got back to the apartment after our walking tour, we found that Tom had gone grocery shopping and there were preparations to be made for dinner.

Carol, Emily and I stayed out of the (very small) kitchen while Tom, Andrew and Sarah prepared SNAILS.







Then the table was set




and we all enthusiastically partook of the feast







Well, ALMOST ALL



I ate them, too. I'd probably like asbestos tile with that much garlic and butter on it. Carol did not try any. She was about to, until Ann tried one for the first time and said, "Just about what I expected. It's like a large semi-hard booger." Carol decided to pass.

We told her that she couldn't have any dessert if she didn't eat dinner, but she wouldn't budge - even after she saw the two desserts.

A "King Cake"




and a "Buche de Noel"



What a great meal with my families in Paris !
