Your Proustian madeleine?
Hot Liège waffles outside the French school in Brussels. A great comfort from the romantic troubles of adolescence!
Your favorite family (besides yours and ours)?
The Malaussène family in Daniel Pennac's romantic saga.
Where do you have lunch as a family?
At Chez Maxence in Batignolles, a crêperie with a charming welcome. Simple, delicious and above all quick, because it's hard to spend three hours at a restaurant with a two-year-old child.
At home, what does a family snack time look like?
A tarte tatin or homemade lemon madeleines prepared by my husband, an Earl Grey tea and fruit juice, around a board game.
An activity that's anything but a piece of cake with him?
Going for a bike ride and visiting a museum at opening in the morning: no queues yet, everyone is in good shape, we got a big breath of fresh air and saw the beautiful neighborhoods of Paris on the way and we can admire a few paintings almost peacefully.
A recipe that can be made in two shakes of a spoon?
Pulled pork (shredded pork cooked very slowly in the oven): you put all the ingredients in a casserole in a few minutes. You have to plan ahead, after that there are five hours of cooking, but it does itself.
How does he roll in the flour?
When he asks us for a second then a third story in the evening. I often get home just before he goes to bed, the story told to three with his dad is one of the best moments of the day that I gladly prolong.
He makes a big deal out of it when...?
...he doesn't like something we offer him to eat. He has strong tastes and a strong character and you have to see him sort his plate with his little cutlery to get out every tiny piece of leek from a quiche.
A favorite product from À la Mère de Famille?
I hesitate between the fruit and nut mendiants or the chocolate orangettes.
A gift for À la Mère de Famille for her 256th birthday?
A hen-mother sweatshirt.
As Annie Cordy said Cho Kakao if I give you chocolate what do you give me?
A good hot chocolate!
