I will indulge in the mousse au chocolat offered at a Paris restaurant "l'Assiete au Boeuf" while on my honeymoon. Itwas served in a large bowl, from which you took as much as you cared for. I still laugh at my wife taking a huge portion, convinced she could eat it all, and not being able to finish even half! While I heartily question French politics and foreign policy, I have always liked the French language, (most of) its people, and its food.
"While I heartily question French politics and foreign policy, I have always liked the French language, (most of) its people, and its food."
With your question of the politics and the foreign policy, and liking the language and the food, you sound as if you're French!
But one jarring note: you like (most of) the people.
Clearly, then, you are not French.
There is a French saying:
"When the good Lord made this world, he decided to make one perfect place. And so he made France.
Then he began to have second thoughts about what he had done. So he filled it with the French."
