2 October Monday
Warm, windy.
Breakfast like a real French housewife: went to the market for figuo, gaztanbera, bread, etc.
While gobbling our truffled omelettes at the market yesterday we met two perfect Parisians. The perfect young woman ordered the figou and ate a thin slice on a tiny sliver of bread. She explained that it is a young goat cheese with fig jam ( the purple stuff) inside. Whole, it looks like a large head of garlic. The cheese is very mild and the fig jam is fairly subtle. Very nice.
As to the gaztanbera:

QB has her first French aperol spritz, she pronounced it well made and to her liking.
Tried to get piperade for dinner. Qb found a place that has it on the menu. Nope, have none, would you like green beans with your gambas?
