Happy holidays to all of you lovely readers!
Thanks for following my little stories over the years (Crème de Citron will be 5 next Summer, can you believe it?!), it is always so lovely knowing people are enjoying my stories and recipes.
As we alternate spending Christmas here in Ireland or in France every other year, this year will be in Dublin. I am even taking over cooking the bird which I am very excited about. And no, it will not be a turkey since I am going to bring my little French touch with my family's favourite: capon! I was able to get it here and I plan to make a stuffing with chestnuts, prosciutto ham, rosemary and brandy.
And since I am not a fan of plum puddings and Christmas cakes (sorry not sorry), I am also making a bûche de Noël (Yule log) with poached pears and white chocolate mousse so I can partake in the dessert cheerfulness.
And since I am also taking a little staycation from work and my computer, I will be back on the blog next year with more delicious recipes, lifestyle and travel stories.
I hope that whatever your plans are this year, you get to enjoy some good realxing times over the holidays, Joyeux Noël!!
