About half way between here and there is a place – le Café des Sports – that serves lunch.
I stop sometimes and order the Menu du Jour – never looking to see what it is; it’s good value, comes quickly and fills me up.
Twenty years ago I was a fervent vegetarian (a F.V.); I knew more about soya beans than was healthy and I knew what to do with Seitan.
I even ate Umbioshi Plums!
Today, I’m casual.
I eat at the Café des Sports also because they have a free internet access, a really attractive waitress and because by randomly dipping into the menu du jour of a local French bistro perhaps I will understand the French a little more; I don’t know much about meat but It seems to be important to them.
Today I did.
I feel sick.
I had Tête du Veau.
If it turns out that I ate someone’s head…
I will be.

Made me LAUGH right out loud - hugely and I was all alone. I love this blog its official.
Well thankyou, i am tickled to be official!
Always good to carry a pocket dictionary with you to avoid unpleasant surprises?
Have you seen my pockets Cecilia!?
But, that is very sound Scandinavian advice that i would be wise to follow.
Or i could reaffirm my vegetarian vows!
