Dinner at La Fosse

Life is good, really, really good. We had the neighbours over for dinner on Saturday night. Christine & Simon have been really kind to us ever since we got here, despite us all struggling with language. Christine came with gifts for everyone and a giant Tiramisu for sweets, made with Cointreau instead of the usual Marsala.Liz (who owns the house here at La Fosse de Tigne) & her friend Laure were here for the weekend from Paris where they are both working their butts off so we wanted to do something special. We pulled out all the stops & made Navarin of lamb. That wonderful dish that somehow becomes more than the sum of its parts. Afterwards the guitar came out & we all sat around & tried to remember any French songs we knew. Richard hit the jackpot with La Mer.
