Do You Like Quiche? Like I Like Quiche!






Paris I love Paris...kind of...I liked other parts of France better but right now Paris...the one thing I love about Paris was that everyone had gardens off their windows, and or balconies. Let's talk Quiche and the holidays. It is perfect for the holidays. You can freeze it and pull it out when your girlfriends come over. OK, I heard it in my head, don't worry you will find a use for it. Back to my story and why I have a huge sign of France.

Her love of food and happen to be in Paris and wanting to study at the Le Cordon Bleu was a plus for us.  As she stated she that she lived in a country that she couldn't wear their clothes,
and she mastered an art form called food.  This is Julia's recipe, which originated in Lorraine and taught at the Parisian School of Cooking the Le Cordon Bleu.
