THANK YOU, TEAM BLUE - YOU DID YOUR BEST FOR AMERICA

Prayer for Peace
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, harmony; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. Grant that I may seek not so much to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.

France is not the only country where these are made. In Britain we use a Swiss roll as the base to make our Christmas Logs; jelly is something very different from jam! Never thought of putting mushrooms on it, but you can put a chocolate bird's nest with sugar eggs inside on the log for the Easter version!
So who copied from whom, France or Britain? Grin.
Christmas 1965 a friend in imitation of Julia made his first Buche de Noel. It was a triumph and I will always remember this with many other memories of a wonderful guy who didn't make it through the plague.
A bittersweet memory, I'm sure.
