No pictures of the salad, unfortunately. Things got a bit crazy at that moment getting the next course organized.
Check out my gift on the stove behind Erik's shoulder: the red le Creuset cocotte. Love it.
The wine. Oh, the wine. Sooooo gooood...
The cheese course was drastically reduced. Not sure what we were thinking when we picked it all out, but we've got enough cheese left now to last us a month.
And the piece de resistance. Neither of us was even remotely hungry at this point, but we managed to find room for a couple of slices of this lovely dessert. You must make this buche. It was fantastic. Chocolate, and coconut and pistachios, oh my!
So we've now finished It's a Wonderful Life, and agreed that George Bailey did in fact have a wonderful life. I'm still in my pyjamas and the chances of me getting dressed to go out for a walk at this point are quite slim, so we'll probably roll into bed and call it a night bientot. It's been a lovely day full of eating and drinking and eating, and then more eating, and we're both happy to be wearing elastic waist pants at the moment. Life in Paris is so chic sometimes.
Merry Christmas everyone.
