"French people of my generation … knew that our hosts had spent a lot of time cooking in order to offer a real treat for her/his guests. That meant something to us, and we were educated to show some respect.”

Remember when we had that discussion about accommodating special diets when cooking for friends? I promised to ask a Frenchwoman her approach. I really enjoyed M's response! I think you will, too!

Link to story is in comments section.

Love this photo of M. cooking paella for us in the Rousillon! So chic, n'est-ce-pas?
