At our first meal together, Delphine and Alex made it clear that food is very important to them, and you can definitely tell! Everything they make is delicious and is a mix of French, Italian, and Spanish cuisine. In Europe food isn't just about eating, but also enjoying and socializing. Whenever we're home in time, Birte and I help Delphine or Alex make dinner and Alma usually helps with something little as well. Before the main meal, we all sit down for an apéritif of some juice and nuts or chips and start talking about our days or in what ways France is different from America. After le plat principal, we have some fruit, bread, and cheese and continue to sit together at the table. Our conversations are always interesting and the food is always amazing! About two days ago, my roommate and I decided that our family's food was so good that we had to start writing down recipes. So far we have recipes for quiche, taboulé, and la tortilla (an Italian sort of omelet eaten at lunch or dinner). Here are some photos and a video of us preparing la tortilla!
