Thomas Keller, renowned American chef, has a book out in his series......it’s about the famed Bouchon Bakery in Paris.

He trained there and has five bakeries besides his several restaurants.

The 50 bucks for the book is more than worth the cost.

It is chockfull of lessons in pastry-making......the exquisite French way.

Then again, maybe you already have the book?

Nice to sip as fall chills the air. Delicious hot beverage used to be a pricey
perennial at Starbucks----cheap and easy to make at home. Must use Earl
Gray tea for the bergamot flavor.

PREP Heat mug of milk (skim for fewer cals). Then steam hot milk til
frothy. Sans steamer, buzz the milk in blender a few seconds----will froth
up nicely----careful blendering hot beverages. Just drape tea towel over top.

Steep Earl Gray tea bag in hot milk 3 min. Add vanilla syrup, fave sweetener.

Drink up.

I don’t. I’m sort of feeling like working my way through a pastry chef book.... I wish I had more time. Will look at this one. Also what about this one, coming out next month?
