- turkey, in honor of Thanksgiving.
Which I surprisingly got to celebrate. French Thanksgiving dinner (put on by some people from the American Consulate) consisted of wine, stuffing, brussels sprouts, tiny potatoes, and of course, turkey and cranberry sauce. Dessert consisted of cheese and this odd pie-thing that was orange but definitely not pumpkin.
When I was there, I actually spent a little time talking to a woman who had gone to Berkeley and was a part of the first EAP program to Bordeaux. Apparently Bordeaux was the first EAP location ever, a fact which both interested and surprised me. She was a very nice lady, but I was extremely amused when she gave us the "Back in my day, we had to walk uphill both ways in the snow!" talk.
