Cheesy start

We were up early this morning, as we wanted to head into Bar-sur-Seine to visit the boulangerie and order some loaves for next week. The Friday market was quite busy, but we made time for a coffee and croissant before buying my fruit and veg, and of course cheese.

Our first guests of the weekend were due to arrive around 2pm today, but they contacted us to say they had not been as organised as they had hoped, so would not be with us until around 6pm. That was no problem for us, we took our time over lunch before putting the finishing touches to their room.

They had planned to share ‘table d’hôte’ dinner with us, so I got started on making some cheese gougères, the first batch of the season.

There will be many more, as they are very moreish to enjoy with a glass of Champagne or two before dinner.
