Your Proustian madeleine?
The rice pudding my grandmother used to make, served with fresh apple compote and cinnamon… Just the smell transports me!
Your favorite family (besides yours and ours)?
All my friends, my second family.
Where do you have lunch as a family?
At 68 on Rue Guerlain, everything is beautiful and delicious!
What does an afternoon snack with the family look like at your place?
A large kitchen with an open fireplace, children of all ages gathered around a big table, and lots of cakes with homemade jam.
A real adventure with the kids?
Our weekend horseback ride, rain or shine—it brings us closer and is essential for reconnecting.
A recipe you can whip up in no time?
Caramel tart, a recipe created by my husband—even I can make it!
How do they get away with it?
With a "Mommy" over here and "Mommy dear" over there, I'm not fooled, but it always works!
They make a big deal out of it when…?
When there are no more snacks in the cupboard and when I ask them to put down their phones. It's a tragedy.
A favorite product from "À la Mère de Famille"?
The palm oil-free chocolate spread that perfectly replaces N… What was it called again?
A gift for "À la Mère de Famille" for her 256th birthday?
A segment on my show #versionfrançaise on TV5 Monde!
As Annie Cordy used to say: "Cho Kakao, if you give me chocolate, what will you give me?"
A melting kiss.
