In the future, I’m going to talk about snacks that are popular in a certain country. However, as I said before the French don’t snack so I went to World Market and bought non-snack food from France, and that’s what I’m going to talk about today! Though honestly when I went to France, I would snack on a baguette throughout the day (the family I was staying with would have thrown them away otherwise).
I bought a caramel candy, Carambar, which can best be described as a caramel tootsie roll. It has the shape, look and consistency of a tootsie roll but when you bite into it, all the caramel-y goodness comes out (I love caramel!). These were cute, fun, little candies! However, some of my family didn’t like how sticky and chewy they are so if you don’t like that then these aren’t for you. My favorite thing about them is the jokes that have inside of them! I love candies with jokes! My favorite joke:
Que dit une vache lorsqu’elle recontre un homme?
(What does a cow say when she meets a man?)
Bonjour, Meeeuuuhsieur!
Madeleines are popular tiny sponge cake-like cakes that have a unique shape. You should be able to find a madeleine baking pan at most kitchen supply shops. But I didn’t do that. I bought pre-made madeleines from World Market. They probably would have tasted better if I made them but they still tasted good. It tasted like a lemon vanilla sponge cake. They were a huge hit with my family too!
If you want to try making madeleines yourself, this looks like a good recipe (you will need a madeleine pan):

And then of course I needed to try French wine! I bought this fancy AF looking Chardonnay from France! I’m not generally a fan of wine but it was really good! My husband and I shared it (he was sick though so he got to drink out of the cup-looking thing that topped the bottle. I’m seriously in love with the packaging of this though!
And finally, we bought some French water. Once again, I’m really impressed with the packaging! Very cute! It tastes very different from the water I normally buy (I normally fill up a 5-gallon jug of water at a water station). It wasn’t better or worse, just different! I liked it. I’m one of those people that love the taste of water though. For those that are curious, it described itself as (I love how water companies advertise their water):
“SANA PER AQUAM or Health by Water is how the Romans described this non-carbonated natural mineral water which is unique to Ardèche (France) where the CHANTEMERLE flows under the volcanic rocks.”
Until the next adventure!

Für Rolex gleicht es fast schon einer Revolution: Auf der digitalen Messe Watches
and Wonders präsentierte die Schweizer Traditionsmarke ihre neuen Uhren für 2021 –
und für ein Haus wie Rolex, das normalerweise nur äußerst behutsam seine Modelle überarbeitet, waren einige spektakuläre Neuheiten dabei.
Die neue Rolex Explorer wird mit 36 Millimetern Durchmessern wieder etwas kleiner – und entspricht damit der Größe des Originalmodells
von 1953. Auffälligstes Merkmal: Die Uhr kommt nun in Bicolor mit Edelstahl und Rolesor-Gelb (einem Mix aus Edelstahl
Oystersteel und 18 Karat Gelbgold). Dank der neuen Chromalight-Anzeige soll die Uhr laut Rolex besonders lange leuchten. In ihr tickt das Kaliber
3230, das Zifferblatt ist schwarz lackiert.
Die Rolex Explorer II wurde dagegen etwas behutsamer überarbeitet.
Gehäuse und Armband wurden leicht modernisiert und optimiert, außerdem wird hier ebenfalls die neue
Chromalight-Anzeige verwendet. Die Uhr gibt es in zwei Ausführungen: einmal mit
weißem, einmal mit schwarzem Zifferblatt. Zum Einsatz kommt das Kaliber 3285 mit einer Gangreserve von 70 Stunden.
Das Armband besitzt eine Oysterlock-Sicherheitsfaltschließe, Durchmesser der Uhr:
42 mm.
You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find
this matter to be really something that I think I would
never understand. It seems too complex and very broad for me.
I’m looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
I quite like reading through a post that will make people think.
Also, thank you for allowing for me to comment!
Wow, marvelous blog layout! How long have you been blogging for?
you make blogging look easy. The overall look of your web site is excellent, let alone the content!
