Welcome to newsletter #25!

First off, a word of apology for only getting out one newsletter this week. I’ve been busy at the photo shoot for my next French cookbook and I forgot how exhausting the process can be. For my last book we did about six days of photos I think. This time it’s double that. But the results are fabulous! I’m preparing a post about the process in the near future. In June I’m off on two food trips in Europe so there’ll be plenty of time to make up for lost posts in May and I’m adding three more rosé recommendations below from Jean Aubry for Rosé May!

And now on to the recipe!

OK, back to the quiche…
