Lavande in Orleans

We spent the last 2 days in Orleans with Pat's friend, Catherine. I took a short walk to see the cathedral and the lovely stain glass windows which tell the story of Joan of Arc. Catherine prepared many delicious dishes including tajine with turkey, terrine, quiche, and the best salad. Catherine's delicious terrine is made with eggs, milk, flour, goat cheese, sauteed onion, and lots of herbs, such as parsley, chives and tarragon, plus some crème fraîche. Her garden contains fruit trees and herbs. I loved the lavender drying on the enclosed patio.
