Saint-Aignan sunset, 19 November 2025
I've got a busy morning ahead of me today. I want to go to the supermarket (Intermarché) to get some ingredients for the choucroute garnie I'm making our next few meals and to get a few bottles of the 2025 Beaujolais Nouveau red wines, which were released for sale yesterday. Then I need to go to one of the local butcher shops to order a lamb shoulder roast that we plan to cook and eat next week for Thanksgiving. Finally, I have to go to the pharmacy. I'll take the Peugeot.
It's cold this morning — just below freezing. I'll have to be careful driving in case there's black ice. There's talk of snow, by the way, in places like Orléans (50 mi. north of us) and Le Blanc (75 mi. south of us). We ourselves are under a yellow warning for ice and snow flurries.
The Beaujolais Nouveau is such a happy event and always around our Thanksgiving. Will you drink some with the lamb?
ReplyDeleteI love the Beaujolais Nouveau. Nice sunrise picture in your hameau.
ReplyDeleteI remember when the local Sister Cities (St.Louis-Lyon) group used to have an annual Beaujolais Nouveau party... that was the first time that I ever heard about it!
