French pastry : Religieuse!
We were visiting our friend in the hospital, we brought pastries.
He was in a good mood. His illness wasn't "in the room" he said.
I laughed adding, "A pastry is a good reason to be alive!" He laughed too.
And that was the happiest moment in these last three months.
I think one can gain 15 pounds just by looking at that photo! 😉

The religeuese reminds me of the first of our many drives to Lyon, religeueses from a famed patisserie the trophy we carried home. (Pierre never let me step foot inside the famed brocantes of Lyon!!)
Good news . . . the secret therapy of an occasional sweet treat . . .
