Great article. I must say you are probably the only person I know in the food service industry who went in looking for low stress and sheer delight :) It shows how much you love creating with food.
Well done Nana! It's great to see the business getting a bit of publicity. I'm looking forward to new bouboulettes..... but i guess i'll have to come and collect them personally! And if you come up with that Chocolate Orange cake recipe, I won't be bothering with return tickets...*G* john.
Hopefully I can get a taste of those bouboulettes during my projected visit, and some boxes for my return as well. And by the way, that chubby bird...it reminds my of a fat parrot somehow...could that be? :-D
My mother grew up in Paris, one of 11 children, and had memories of bomb shelters and only flour and water to eat, as well as raucous family meals.[What else could they have been with 11 children?]When she landed in America as a young girl, she paid her way by assisting the dietitian with all the meals at her Ann Arbor, Michigan school.So family tradition,hunger and a decidedly forward thinking school cook all led to food and dinner time being somewhat of an obsession.My mother would always prepare a 2 and sometimes 3 course meal for us.Working beside Mama in the kitchen was a cloth woven with long periods of comfortable silences,confessions,laughing and the intricate ballet required when you have more than one person in a New York City apartment kitchen.What I write here has so much to do with this woman who would literally swoon eating a marron glace. Appreciation, gratitude and wonder.She had those and I hope to share some with you.
That's great! CONGRATULATIONS! I hope I'll taste your bouboulettes some day. They look really delicious (never mind they are black-and-white)...

ReplyDeletejohn.
Nana, you must have an avocado recipe or two to share.
ReplyDeleteMy trees look as if they're finally about to fruit, so I'd love to finally make my own 'guacamole' mix that I've read you Americans all eat.
Congratulations Nana!

I think you have a point, Daniel!
