A friend of mine, and fellow blogger mailed a parcel to my daughter and I, all the way from France! This is her and her Frenchman Hubby above (and their fur babies). So, to express our gratitude, I am featuring her blog, today! I hope you check her out. Her blog is adorable and fun! In her own words, it showcases herself as "a 20-something homesick Canadian girl and her Frenchman (plus a dog and 2 cats) living a love-hate relationship with France". You can expect to find great recipes, fantastic scenery, the lifestyle of her adorable pets, and even great reads that she recommends.
Let me tell you, I was ecstatic to receive her yummy treats among my usual pile of bills.
(The pink cupcake case is for my daughter, she was in love when she saw it!).
The chocolate was divine! My daughter loved the milk chocolate from Belgian chocolatier Galler, the most. It had a creamy praline center. You can view their website here: GallerAs for myself, I favored the All Natural Noir Cafe with coffee crispies within it, made in Switzerland! You can check out their website here: Chocolat-Villars
Your browser should offer to translate them for you, as they are both in french ;)
The tea is from the tropical island of Mauritius and came in a vanilla-coconut flavor! It is smooth with a light aroma. A sprinkle of sugar, or a small squeeze of honey enhanced the flavors. It arrived just in time, as I have the worst sinus cold known to man-kind! lol.
I hope you enjoyed this delicious blog post, featuring Crystal Goes To Europe.
Mmmm - lucky you!
