Birthday Celebration!

Okay, so here we are, starting with the gorgeous desserts I bought myself for my birthday...I wanted to end with these because they're so fantastic, but the uploading process was a bit dodgy, so here it is:

Little Cake with Chantilly Cream and Raspberries


And this little guy:
Penguin made from Dark and White Chocolate, with a Cream Pastry on the inside to make his body, with a Cookie for Feet
I can't believe I can buy something this cute

Okay, so this picture is a bit bizarre, but it's me with the first baguette I've ever bought!



Robert, Dad and Matt, this is for you: I saw this funny fishing display on my way home from the restaurant:


And here's my birthday dinner: oh my god. I could barf just looking at it, it's so much food. Let's see, there's like a prawn or something on top, a big shrimp, a small salmon fillet, a small white fish fillet, some of ther seafood that I didn't know, and mussels all around the plate. There were also some boiled potatoes on there somewhere. This is one of the BEST meals I have EVER eaten! I ordered it not remembering what "choucroute" meant, and thank goodness I didn't remember, because if I had remembered it was sauerkraut, I probably wouldn't have ordered it and missed out! Well, I gots to go. I'll check in again soon.

  4. Meghan,
    The fishing gear looks very mixed up. I thought baguettes were small. Now I want some sweets.

    Love

  5. Ok, I want to know how much of that meal you actually ate!?! Looks like it would feed half your village.

    I also want to know if you ate all that dessert.

    I can see it now--go to France, eat, come back and have to buy a new wardrobe 3 sizes larger........

  6. LOL, i ate most all of my dinner, except for the sauerkraut, which I did have several bites of, but just couldnt eat that much of, and the desserts, I just ate the head off the penguin and a couple raspberries. They're still in my room so I can eat them, but that night after dinner I was just so full and all the food was so rich that I didnt really want any sweets. Haha. Oh well. They were nice to buy anyway. :)
