21 décembre Hard to say goodbye...Well, like most things, we are finding that our "letting go" of this experience occurs in stages. At first, in mid-October, there was the "I'M NEVER GOING HOME...... NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Then, around mid-November, we found ourselves all travelled-out and longing for the conveniences of home. Now - with 3 days to go - we find ourselves nostalgic and introspective, trying to soak up every last drop of everything before it's gone forever. The other night we went out for dinner to the pizza place across the street (as usual). We were sitting there talking about how upset we were that we would likely never have this pizza again and we wish we could somehow get the recipe. Well, something I've learned about myself is that after 2-3 (but no more!) glasses of wine, I can suddenly speak French like Gerard Freakin' Depardieu. So when the cook passed by I told him how we were leaving and we thought he was the best cook in the world, and is there any way we could possibly know how he works his magic. Well to our surprise, #1 he understood me, and #2, he took us back into the kitchen and let us make our own pizza pies! He even wrote down the recipe for the dough! He does it all by eye though, so he wrote down the measurements in relation to a wine bottle, because there was one sitting there, so "about half a bottle like this of flour" and so on... so we'll have to measure out of one when we try to make it at home. The only sort of "mystery" ingredient was this weird cube of gelatenous yeast that he said was the key to the whole operation and it's what the French use in their baguettes. So when I get home I'm going to check out Victoria's selection of French Boulangeries to see what I can find. Once we get it perfected, we will make you all "Auberge St. Antoine Pizza" so you can see what all the fuss is about. Jordo had it when he was here and said we're not crazy - it's the best pizza EVER. Later that night, Adam being the thoughtful fiance that he is, told me to go out and have fun with all my school friends (at that big goodbye party I mentioned). I didn't stay the whole night, but long enough to get some pictures as souveniers. Looking back, it really was a ecclectic mix from all over the world... check out the pictures!
We are going to spend the next 2 days cleaning and taking pictures to remind us of our trip, we will post the last set of pictures on Friday
