Blogue d'un québécois expatrié en Angleterre. Comme toute forme d'autobiographie est constituée d'une large part de fiction, j'ai décidé de nommer le blogue Vraie Fiction.
Just to be nice to my veggie wife, I have decided to avoid meat for Lent. So when we recently had lunch at Côte Brasserie, I went for their grilled swordfish on their March menu. The dish was meant for me: it had ratatouille and a capers, black olives and anchovies dressing. All the stuff I love. And yummy, healthy, grilled swordfish, which I don't think I've had in nearly twenty years or so. It's just as tasty as a steak, if not tastier, but has none of the unhealthy content. And it has no bones. I have to confess, I did not make time to check its conservation status, my curiosity was too strong to risk feeling guilty, and in any case I like to fish because of its health benefits. And this swordfish tasted great.
Today, I have been married for a year already. Time flies. We will celebrate it today, with her parents, by having a nice meal in a restaurant, and we will keep on celebrating in Paris. We didn't have a proper honeymoon yet, so Paris will be a foretaste. We got ourselves in a Paris mood yesterday by watching Ratatouille (and to cure me from my musophobia).
So since it's our wedding anniversary and we are going to Paris soon, I thought I would give you the theme-song from the movie, which is sweet and talks about love and happiness. And it's in French! Oh, and it's a waltz too, so it reminds us of our first dance (although ours was not a waltz).
