Dear Chris, Thanks oodles for the recipes. I adore croissants but would NEVER attempt to try making them. I just might give them a whirl after seeing your recipe. Your trip sounds specular and how fun to go to a cooking class in FRANCE. Holy Moley! Thank you so much for sharing your recipes and experiences. Can't wait to hear of more adventures.
Fondly,
Royce (an 84 yr old grandmother of eight.)Reply
