I'm legal! Today I went back to Nantes and got everything squared away with a mandatory gov't visit. It feels good to have all of the paperwork behind me...what a great feeling. So I went back to the great wine bar and had a class of good white wine, bought a baguette, walked around Nantes, and came back here..But I had to mention the baguette because it was different than most of the others that I've had here..Now for those who don't know..not all baguettes are created equal. It is just the stereotypical image that we think of like the one you might buy from Panera Bread or the ones you see in pictures, I'll try to show you what I mean eventually, but baguettes can have different widths and textures and all kinds of things, that's what makes going to different boulangeries great..You can get the traditional French baguette, the ordinary baguette, a baguette with corn flour, 7 grains, etc..But the one in the picture was really different, not only does it look really simple compared to a lot of the baguettes I've seen, but the texture was great. The crust was really crunchy but easy to eat, and the inside was perfectly soft, it was like it was just made and it was meant to be. Hah call me silly, but there after a while you notice a difference between good and not so good bread here, and this was exceptional... More on this subject to come, I can't say enough about it!
