Izzy's American Contribution to French Breakfast
We have this special treat that we indulge ourselves with every once in awhile. It's called French Breakfast.
On the high street is a very good French deli. On a weekend morning, we'll venture up there early (by 9am there is a line out the door) and get several croissants, pain au raisin and pain au chocolate pastries. And then come home and make a big vat of hot chocolate. And then cut up some fresh fruit.
We do this for house guests as well, to give them a little taste of Continental life.
Well, my Uncle Izzy and Aunt Bonnie got a taste last November when the came over. So, when we arrived to see them in the Upper Peninsula, Izzy had a gift for us. Four beautifully designed mugs, with their own spoons, Green & Blacks Cocoa mix and, a true American indulgence, Fluff.
We put all the ingredients to use this weekend!
