Ten days ago, when chaos seemed to reign in France, we were on the other side of the Atlantic.
In Guadeloupe.
We walked through fields of sugar cane, swam in the middle of pretty fish, given the extraordinary plants, eat lots of maracudja, took a hot water bath in a small natural pool, had a car crash, catch sunburn, seen flying fish, iguanas, hummingbirds, touloulous , papayas giant ... and then all that too:
the beach blower, the quietest and coolest beach on the island ...
You probably do not see it, but smaller tubers orange in the basket are called " not possible."
is a little "tiles Day", as my chicken ...
So, I missed the first snow of winter (bouhouhouh. ..).
Back at home, I have a little trouble getting back in the kitchen. But as we reported in our suitcases several cubis rum, at least we do not die of thirst. Hehe.

The rum prepared in March and tidy at the back of a closet recalled our fond memories. He took a nice amber color, a sign perhaps that he is finally ready to be tasted.
