Welcome

We are a retired American couple living in France, enjoying the good life with our cats. Our house is in a small hamlet among the Ste. Foy vines. We also have a sailboat that the male half of the spousal unit sailed across the Atlantic in the summer of 08. When the weather warms we will start to visit the sailing ports of Europe. Our stories chronicle our life in France: the good life, the hard life, and the sailing life.

Omlettes Dans un Sac








Either we are too busy or time is just passing by too quickly. Before I had a chance to post more of our Paris adventure we were off to Florida. We had a fabulous 10 days in warm and sunny Stuart and Jacksonville. We visited with family and friends and of course we ate very well. Our favorite meal of the vacation was part participatory and part performance art.
Omelttes in a bag are being prepared by Chef Dorothy. Ever want to serve omlettes to a crowd? Here is the solution. Eggs, fillings (cut mushrooms seen in the photo), herbs, whatever you wish are placed uncooked in a Ziplok bag, set into a pot of simmering water, cooked for 13 minutes, slice the bag open and VOILA! a perfectly cooked delicious omlette. What a great morning on S/V Illusion. Many thanks.
