Banane au chocolat

After an afternoon Roast and the long walk home, our bellies are feeling empty again! We've come home, lit a fire and now awaiting for les Banane au Chocolat!

The recipe:

Nutella
x2 Bananas
Foil
A spoon

Lay out the foil and use the spoon to cover a line of thick chocolate on the centre of the foil.

Cut the banana into thin round slices and place them on the nutella

Wrap the foil around them and squash it down

Place them in the freezer

Wait until it has solidated and place in the fridge for just a few minutes until the banana is no longer frozen

Remove from the fridge and enjoy!

Sunday of rain

We have done a superb journey through the Kent Village of the Year- Elham. It was a very romantic journey, through the historic countryside. We travelled through the atmospheric church garden where you experience a sense of solitude and peace.




We took a quiet drink and a Sunday Roast at The Rose and Crown Pub in Elham, situated opposite the characteristic Abbots Fireside Restaurant. We met a couple with their dogs, Bruce and Spencer. Wearing their wellies and their rain coats, well prepared for the English weather! How very organised, we we're wet and freezing!



 The Abbots Fireside offers add's atmosphere and character to the village of Elham. Offering a taste of the Victorian lifestyle.

Kent on two wheels

We are back after summer break , now we have two bicycles and we get to see more of Kent that way .
There are really good cycle routes away from the main roads .
We took cycle route 1 all the way to Deal from Canterbury ,its a fantastic trip through the country side .
Its always good to find a pub at the end of the trip , which gives you the energy for the long trip back.
In future we going to describe more cycles routes .

Where is Canterbury ?

Dear Marie ,
you will find Canterbury in the South East corner of England. It's only 20 km from Dover ( Douvres) at the Centre of East Kent. you can get there easily from Paris. You get off at Ashford (2 hrs from Paris) and it's 20 min by local train.
It is a historic city, famous for the martyr St Thomas who was murdered by the King's knights in 1184. the cathedral is the most beautiful in england. Its built of French stone and was designed by a French architect
- William of Sens. You should come and visit!
By the way green tea it's good for your body
Voila hope you are happy with my answer
Please don't hesitate to ask me more questions
