Fete de Beaumont -- Community Dinner






There was an excellent event last evening! Long tables set out on the main street of our small town (really just a mailing address) and dinner for 300 served on proper china with real cutlery and glasses and vin a discretion (all you can drink). We had kir royal at the beginning and then melon with prosciutto, spit-roasted beef with ratatouille, cheese and bread, and tarte aux pommes. Then there was dancing to a band that did a lot of Rolling Stones covers, although I believe I caught Rosanna at least tapping her foot to the Beatles. Either that or she was impatient for the slightly tipsy Glenn and I to go home. The pictures really tell the whole story for this event.
