WEEKEND IN SAINT AUBIN SUR MER

Here are some of the highlights of our traditional weekend in St Aubin sur Mer

on the coast of Normandie for André's birthday!

To start off with of course, the kids (and André - my 4th child) headed off to the beach!!
Seashells, sandcastles, seagulls - the works!

For your information the Eve & Hervé's house that we stay at is
right above Ilya's head in the group photo.

This year's masterpiece - Rapunzel's tower!

The weather was more than fantastic, so we ate outdoors in the sun!!

.
Birthday dinner menu: Fish (a pollock) with a spinach stuffing!
Delish!! and not that hard to make once you get the #*&@!! backbone out!!!
Got the recipe from my mother's Time Life cookbook: Provincial France.
.No need for cake when you can have a red berry crumble compliments of Nanou!!
Thanks to Eve & Hervé for providing the bubbly....
.Another sunny day on Sunday, so we took to the beach for our apéro!!

And to top off the weekend, Moules Frites takeway for lunch!!
.

All in all a very relaxing, refreshing, recharging getaway!

A big thank you to our hosts for having us once again....
We hope to be back next October or maybe even before??
