No Monday morning blues in this house this week.....or Tuesday....or even Wednesday for that matter - il neige - yes, it's snowing........and what a treat for kids in Normandy!!
Our two, Ellen and Kate, apart from les sports d'hiver - skiing holidays - haven't ever seen so much of the white stuff......they're having a ball......the dogs too.....Maman too....Papa, who has to venture out to work, a little less, no doubt, although on Monday was able to enjoy the welcomed change from rain and wind with the rest of us....and off we went to our nearest wood - le bois de Saga - after which we enjoyed a mulled wine.......
Vin Chaud......... you will need:
1 bottle of fairly cheap Bordeaux
1/2 bottle of port and the same quantity of water
freshly ground nutmeg
1 cinnamon stick
A few grains of Cardamon
Grated rind and juice of an orange
Sugar to taste
Slowely heat all up together and serve piping hot, preferably beside a roaring fire....
Santé!
