Day 12 - July 22: Church, Naps & Meals

We attended Stephanie's church in Marseille, though we arrived a little late.  Maybe we should have waited until after church to take a couple photos?

Another view from Stephanie's apartment.  She has a lovely place!

Unpictured:  We enjoyed Stephanie's church, though we understood very little of it.  Afterward, she invited her pastor and his wife over to join us for lunch.  We had a delicious meal which, in the typical French way, lasted at least three hours.  Afterward, we all needed some rest.  Nap time!

For dinner, we prepared escargot (again, pre-seasoned and ready to cook from store) and a salad.

They call this salad 'Salad du Chevre Chaud' - hot goat salad.  Basically means warm goat cheese toasts top whatever salad is under it.  Yum!

A close-up on the snails.  They have parsley-garlic butter in 'em.

How to eat a snail...

 First, choose a snail.

Using something sharp, pull out the little guy from inside.
 



Look at it.

 Inspect it.  

Consider what a snail is and the fact you're about to eat it.

 Shove the rubbery thing in your mouth.

Swirl the shell around and slurp out the yummy butter sauce.  
Bon apetit!
