I could never be a 100% vegetarian because it’s impossible for me to stop eating charcuterie (prepared meat products like ham, bacon, dried sausage etc), especially in France. But veggies are an adventure worthy to be followed! Because veggies are tasteful and light! They are healthy and good! I admire people that manage to follow up their adventure 100%!

This is an amazing French dessert called fraisier but in this version the biscuit is made with sponge finger (or lady finger) biscuit and this makes all the difference.
