Vacation.

This past weekend, I visited my grandparents in Quebec.

It was some much needed relaxation.

And quality time =)

Living this far away leads to visits that are very few and far between.

Making these four days jam packed with activities.

And delicious french food!

On Saturday, we went to brunch in a little restaurant in a renovated old house.

I had an apple, swiss, and sausage crepe. With real maple syrup.

And, of course, a coffee. Espresso to be exact.

Such authentic tastes, and made in a kitchen which we could see from our table.

Everything was prepared so fresh, which we could tell from the flavors.

I watched the chef cut my fruit, and plate it so beautifully.

Such a variety, I was in heaven!

From watermelon to cantaloupe, kiwi to apples, this arrangement was really impressing me.

It even had a kumquat. Which I decided was definitely a garnish fruit.

Super bitter! But you know, curiosity killed the cat ;)

At the end of the meal, I had a full tummy, a happy face, and an empty plate!

Nothing brings people together like good food!

This week, I'll be posting about all of my deliciously French flavored adventures.

And family tidbits that were just too much fun not to share!

My translator. AKA beautiful aunt!

Now, if only I could speak French...this trip would have been even easier!
