La pétillante Marie-Laure de "Ôdélices" (France) a eu la très bonne idée de créer un jeu connu sous le nom de "Pôste Gourmande" dont le but est de faciliter les échanges entre bloggeur et bloggeuses culinaires...
En s'inscrivant, chaque participant a l'obligation d'envoyer une carte (postale ou faite maison) à un des autres participants qui aura été tiré au sort, mais dont le nom et l'adresse est seulement transmis à l'expéditeur (voir règles). De ce fait, on sait seulement qui recevra notre carte, mais on ne sait pas qui nous écrira. C'est la surprise totale!
Après avoir fébrilement attendu l'arrivée de ma carte, elle a finalement daigné pointer le bout de son nez mercredi. J'étais totalement impatiente de voir ce que l'enveloppe pouvait bien cacher!
C'est avec émerveillement que je découvris la magnifique carte "homemade" de notre très chère Bergeou du superbe blog "Chez Bergeou" (France). Une vraie beauté représentant un "Trifle Girly" (avec la recette dudit dessert).
Merci Bergeou pour tes gentils mots et tes voeux qui m'ont fait très plaisir!!!
As a new year has started and 2006 is already far away (well, not quite), many food bloggers are posting their "Top Ten Recipes Of 2006". Vanessa of the captivating "Confiture Maison" blog kindly invited me to take part in this game, so it is the occasion for me to submit my own list of dishes that particularly struck my attention in 2006.
It was very difficult for me to choose only ten favorite recipes or dishes, because last year was full of positive surprises and interesting discoveries. I loved every single recipe I posted!!!
All in all, 2006 was fantastic food-wise and I hope that 2007 will be as exciting for my palate as the preceding year...
Bon appétit!!!
