I have to remedy that asap. The cakes seems like the perfect vehicle to showcase them.

I've also been to Fontaine de Mars and I enjoyed Café de Mars so much more. For me, Café de Mars was the dining experience we all hope for when we come to Paris. So good.Theresa Wnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1565804864045167406.post-83816137544029519882014-09-13T09:39:05.798-04:002014-09-13T09:39:05.798-04:00Hi Stacey!

I read them and books like a novel, but rarely go back. That said, I am going to try this one because, A) I like cake and B) champaign grapes make me happy! And C) I have heaps of said grapes I just bought from Costco!!<br />Perfect timing!<br />Waiting with Lisanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1565804864045167406.post-27820918640686787882014-09-12T21:51:00.579-04:002014-09-12T21:51:00.579-04:003 days and counting.

I have two wonderful restaurants for your Paris short list: Café de Mars in the 7th around the corner from the Christian Constant circus and Bistrotters for lunch in the 14th. Both had great food, warm and friendly wait-staff, very reasonably priced, and over half of the diners were locals.

Have also read other books by her.<br /><br />I always let melted butter cool a bit as there is always the possibility that hot butter will hit eggs in the mixture and cook bits of them. I was taught that, absent any instructions to the contrary, all ingredients should be room temperature for baking success.<brBebenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1565804864045167406.post-84350371281716927622014-09-12T11:23:56.658-04:002014-09-12T11:23:56.658-04:00Theresa

I plan to make along with some whipped cream on the side. Shouldn't a Paris trip be around the corner for you? I enjoyed your blog from your Paris rip last year.
