Stir in milk and cook until thickens. Place a layer of potato slices, topped with a layer of onion slices into a large casserole. pour over some of the white sauce. Continue to layer potatoes, onions and white sauce. Top layer should be white sauce. Bake 375 for 2 hours.

Zócalo for dinner margueritas of course girly drink for @Alleguede nachos to share carnitas salad tamales nopales

Lunch at an Italian restaurant near the Unconference venue grilled salad for me pasta for everyone else

Can’t wait!

Well - here we are again in Seattle - a quick turn around from the Paris trip. Looks like I'm praying for a smooth ride. Instead got a little lecture at customs. Lounge food. Plane had bowls this time - and warmed! I wouldn't recommend the pasta I'm not sure how the butter chicken was.

Good to know! Would be great for small quantities.

Special I believe

Nope - just dug them out of their foil and ate them!

And here's what they fed us on the Montreal - Toronto leg. There were almonds too but in a foil packet. And now I'm home drinking herbal tea and waiting for it to be time to go to bed. Tomorrow I start preparing for our next trip to Seattle - leaving Wednesday night.

And now we are in the plane from Montréal to Toronto - so likely another.

They are trying to feed me again!

They keep feeding me! Morblier, Comte and Brie. A fine accompaniment to a little light patent reading.

Lots of ginger in this dish! Chicken a bit toothsome sadly.

Oui!

As I suspected - the food going west is considerably better than eastbound.

Thank god for chickens!

Airport gave @Alleguede an opportunity to check out MacDonalds And the lounge a chance to eat it. and more! mine almost off off the ground

On our way to the airport - via the DHL office just off the Champs Elysee - all the EZtempers are gone to new homes. some poor bastard having a bad bird day!

ice for the coke drinkers lovely bruschetta This was a risotto with coconut milk and madras curry and those little shrimps

Indeed - the chicken may have suffered from a bleeding disorder.

Lunch today out of the city in Gennevilliers at Le Grandel.

To bad you couldn't convince her it was no good so you could take it home too!

Of course you have to have the obligatory pictures. I'd love to figure a way to get copies of the official ones taken.

Last night we were treated to dinner by Renee of Chocolat-chocolat and her husband. A delightful evening with great conversation and excellent food. I don't have the name of the restaurant - but it appeared to be a husband and wife - he was back of house, she was front - served about 30 covers without batting an eye all by herself. Terrine of mushroom and fig for me. Snails for Rodney. I hadn't worked myself up to taking pictures of Renee and Maurice's food until the mains arrived. Paella for me. Nice chunk of beef for @Alleguede Pear Clafoutis for me . Glace for @Alleguede I believe this was a tiramisu variation
