Thanks so much for your kind and helpful...Lorrie--<br /><br />Thanks so much for your kind and helpful comment! Look forward to reading your blog, and certainly do be in touch if you're heading to Paris.<br /><br />Funny about the kale. I made visits (not just for that)to the Batignolles market and Joel Thiebault's stand this morning, and still no kale. Perhaps it's too early? On the plus side, I found more wild garlic and raw milk.<br /><br />ShiraShirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00435085252955668889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982532358152584513.post-41648250475705194592009-04-18T03:40:00.000+00:002009-04-18T03:40:00.000+00:00Hey Shira!
Saw your comment and question about ob...Hey Shira!<br /><br />Saw your comment and question about obtaining kale in Paris on Mark Bittman's blog. I am the fellow food blogger who remarked about the kale recipe from Bordeaux. My friend's mom grows it in her garden there. While in Paris, I went to a few fresh markets, and was able to procure some during both spring and summer. There was one time I found it in a supermarche off Les Halles and another market off Bonne Nouvelle, when I was housesitting for a friend. I am sad to say I do not remember exactly where, and my memories seem to fade the longer I am stateside. <br /><br />On a side note, I really like your blog, and am going to link to it from my site. If I make it back to Paris soon, I'd love to share some wine. Are you a permanent ex-pat?<br /><br />I can relate to your feelings of homesickness. I often worked remotely in East Africa, and simultaneously comforted and crushed myself remembering the sweet things from home. The paradigm is now that I haven't taken any assignments for a while, I miss my life in the field.<br /><br />Give my regards to the City of Lights. <br /><br />Cheers and Bon Appetit,<br />Lorrie <br />http://read-n-eat.com/<br />lorrie@read-n-eat.comThe LaVya Initiativehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05684898640312452197noreply@blogger.com
