A recipe that's been in the family since the 70's
Dear Charlie,
I know you love celebrating , so I had to post something today.
Being in Marseille, I'm afraid, we'll have to wait a few more days until Bastille Day for the fireworks.
But that's no excuse not to have fun.
To me, July 4th automatically means a picnic or a BBQ.
It's much more about having a great time with friends and/or family than a patriotic waving around tor he Us flag or decorating the house in red, blue and white.
So I figured I'd share a few recipes in case you want to share in the fun.

Dig in! (or Bon apétit)
While cooking or eating, you might want to listen to good music.
