First, I so appreciate the fact that you take advantage of every holiday and free day to go on an adventure, something your family will always remember. And, what an adventure. That you carried that tart around is very amusing and I am sure I speak for all Doristas who commend you for being so dedicated. Loved Huck Finn. I have to think that everyone who saw your family enjoying a double chocolate caramelized banana tart as part of your picnic lunch has to think you are the best Wife/Mom in Germany! I enjoyed the history lesson also.Mary Hirschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14495234299898574943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171858975021092818.post-44562605318786503802012-05-19T16:53:50.577+02:002012-05-19T16:53:50.577+02:00Oh, how divine- I just love reading your blog &...Oh, how divine- I just love reading your blog & traveling vicariously on a beautiful European trip with castles & scrumptious foods!<br />Bravo on a lovely post, once again!Bevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06276798700947639659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171858975021092818.post-49503487020342417822012-05-19T15:28:08.394+02:002012-05-19T15:28:08.394+02:00I just love that you take your desserts with you o...I just love that you take your desserts with you on your outings!
