Heading north but it isn’t getting any cooler! Nor is the wind improving - doing a lot of motoring.
Iles des Saintes was wonderful as usual. This is one of my favorite spots - a super combination of West Indies and France. We ate pain au chocolat, bagettes, fresh fish and veggies. La Triangle on Terre D’en Haut is a tiny place right on the beach that you enter by a long 24” alley. I had the best plaintains ever! Also tried a new place called L’Insolente - excellent tapas. Pushed the envelope and ordered Chatroux bourguignon...that would be octopus. I’m glad I did it...once. :-)
Speaking of food, since this seems to be the theme. We were meant to BBQ chicken while at anchor in Roseau. We had torrential rain all evening which made bbq’ing impossible. It also meant closed hatches, two ovens on at 375F. Oh the joys of yachting. Dinner was a little late but all’s well that ends well (they say). My first time cooking christophenes was a success (delicious white onion sauce with cheese on top).
Last night was sheep leg, or is it leg of lamb. It was difficult to get excited about this as I don’t eat lamb. Had lots of help with cooking it. Made Aunt Eleanor’s Apple Pie Bavaroise which turned out great too.
Well, turns out we’ve got wind for sailing and it is difficult to type at this angle.
(Internet connections too pathetic to upload photos at this time)
PS Mom informs me the pie recipe was D. Hache's! Oops.
