Mama's Home And The Dangers Of Grocery Shopping Here


Bonjour everyone. Just a short note that Cassie came home this morning after a week in Victoria, BC, at a communications course which is as always welcome here. I made a quick run to the Franprix Marche in our neighborhood that's open on Sundays for around 4 hours to pick up a few necessaries for the rest of the day. What's dangerous in these French grocery stores usually involves things that are sweet IE "Baiocchi" cookies or at least that's what they're called on the package. It was an impulse buy as I'd never seen them before and frankly after breaking them open this afternoon, I rapidly came to the conclusion that whoever makes these should be shot immediately and all existing stores of these cookies need to be destroyed.

They're so good it's just stupid and now I'm hooked on them. Sooooooooo.......sometimes grocery shopping here is dangerous at least for helpless old guys like me.

Love to all! Except the folks who make Baiocchi cookies............ The bombers will be overhead before the end of the day.......

A bientot,

Sid
