Time for French Fridays with Dorie! This week I learned something new, a tartine is a French open faced sandwich. I had no idea really, I thought it was some sort of dessert between a torte and a tart or something. Now I know. I love learning new things, always on that quest for knowledge, 'ya know? ;)
I also learned that this...
loaf of freshly baked by me briochePLUS
butter, nutella, sea salt (I currently have no Fleur de sel), and plain ole Smuckers Sweet Orange Marmalade (I have no bitter orange marmalade and couldn't find any)EQUALS
DELICIOUS
and just to switch things up a touch, I made one with Strawberry Peach Champagne Jam, a special one for mommy...
These were happily gobbled up, after I cut them into fourths, the first quarter was gobbled up inside...
(Above is my sweet Kindergartner who was sent home from school early after sustaining a classroom fall, ouch! My poor baby with a goose egg on his forehead. )
and the remaining three quarters were delivered to the back yard, where the kids requested their after school snack while enjoying this unusually warm and sunny February day.
The end :)
