Acheter de la Nourriture


After our train ride we settled into the aprtment. Once we tested out the stovetop, and knew we could cook, we headed out in search of groceries.


As I had expected, there was a street just a block away with each of the markets we would need. The butcher had a lovely rotisserie chicken waiting for us. The cherries were ripe and sweet at the fruit market and the FranPrix had all the basics we needed.


We were set. Except that I kept trying to pay with Pounds, haing Dollars, Euros and Pounds in my wallet, it was a free for all of international currency. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. We managed to get everything, including a bottle of Nutella, a French staple and headed back to the apartment.


As you can see from the photo, our haul was great and in the end, so was dinner.
