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!

Hi would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using?
I’m looking to start my own blog soon but I’m having
a hard time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and
Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
I do agree with all the concepts you have presented on your post.
They are really convincing and can certainly work. Still, the
posts are very brief for novices. May just you please extend them a bit from subsequent time?
Thank you for the post.
I’m not sure where you are getting your information, but great
topic. I needs to spend some time learning more or understanding more.
Thanks for magnificent info I was looking for this info for my
mission.

onto a coworker who has been doing a little homework on this.
And he in fact bought me dinner because I found it for him…
lol. So allow me to reword this…. Thanks for the meal!!
But yeah, thanx for spending time to discuss this issue
here on your blog.
I have been browsing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting
article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me.
In my view, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the
net will be a lot more useful than ever before.
Hello! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering
which blog platform are you using for this site? I’m getting tired of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers and I’m
looking at options for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me
in the direction of a good platform.
Very nice article, just what I wanted to find.
Appreciate this post. Let me try it out.

Hello! Do you know if they make any plugins to assist with Search
Engine Optimization? I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some
targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good success.
If you know of any please share. Many thanks!
Fabulous, what a web site it is! This blog presents useful information to
us, keep it up.
I think that everything published was very logical.
But, what about this? what if you added a little content?
I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your website, but
what if you added a headline to possibly get folk’s attention? I mean French Food – Bryanna Vs The World
is kinda vanilla. You could peek at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they write news headlines to grab viewers to open the links.
You might try adding a video or a related pic
or two to grab people excited about what you’ve got
to say. Just my opinion, it would make your blog a little livelier.
Excellent blog right here! Also your site loads up very fast!
What host are you using? Can I am getting your affiliate link to your host?
I want my site loaded up as quickly as yours lol
Hiya! Quick question that’s totally off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly?
