Wonderful pictures! Thank you for sharing your relaxing trip this weekend with us. Keep up with the nerd-stuff, I love it!
Whoa! A picture really is worth a thousand words. That looks amazing. I would have bought 100 lbs. worth of goodies and then had to bike home with them all. Ugh!
So, is that one pile of stuff varieties of sausage? Do they really make it with bilberry? I think my translator is a little off.
Connie--
I think that "myrtilles" are technically bilberries, though I had never heard that word before and had to look it up. They're pretty much the same as blueberries, which we call "bleuets" (bluh-EHH) in Quebec. I often get myrtille desserts and pastries in France, and always get what I expected: blueberries.
The difference between blueberries and bilberries eludes me, and I'm wary of what I've found on the internet. So now that you've sufficiently aroused my curiosity, I'll look it up in the Holy Bible of cuisine, the Larousse Gastronomique, and get back to you!
