I absolutely love Fridays, they are perhaps my most favorite day of the week. Fridays are the days that Sandy, Lea, Emily and I get together to make lunch, watch Audrey Hepburn movies/Glee, take naps, drink tea and then who knows what. The first time we did this was when we made French-Mex, and that was so fantastic that we decided it needed to become a ritual. We made soup the following week and watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s (well, pseudo-watched it, we all ended up falling asleep in my bed! It was so relaxing!). Later that night we ended up going out and hanging with friends and making some new French friends at a bar called Sherlock Holmes. This Friday we all came over again and made the most delicious open-faced sandwiches ever. We used 6 cériales et abricot bread (from Paul, our favorite bakery), fromage (chèvre et brie) and fruits (pear, apples, and figs). After we toasted them in the oven, we drizzled a little bit of miel (honey) over the top.
They were to die for! After we ate, we had tea time (with the tea that my parents sent me, thank you mom and dad!) and watched glee.
After that, everyone left until after dinner when we met up at Lea’s house to bake cookies and then we were off to a concert. I don’t know how we do it, but Fridays are the days where we make the most out of our lives here in Bordeaux!
by the way: yes, that is a bowl of cookie dough next to the giant cookie and yes, we did eat it by the spoonful.
