So I'm pretty sure today I had the best baguette I've ever had in my life. My boulangerie always has a good baguette, but here lately I've been getting une tradition which is a million times better than any normal ol' baguette. It was hot-out-of-the-oven and perfectly golden. I couldn't even wait to get it home to bite into it. It practically melted in my mouth as I took a huge chunk out of the bout. What remained was warm against my shoulder and my black shirt was dusted with white flour after I got to the top of my stairs.
It's the little things that I will miss......
One of my favorite memories of France is walking home from my favorite boulangerie in the snow with a fresh-out-of-the-oven baguette and snacking on it and having it keep my hands warm on the walk home :-)
