First Day Back at the RefDesk

 

First day back at the RefDesk. It's been a while (after logging in, Google Calendar says 'March 2020'). Brought two friends along -- pillow & teddy bear.

Things I Had to Get Used to Eating in Paris

 

Things I had to get used to eating — or at least get used to being served — at the Student University Restaurants (aka 'Resto U's) while in Paris: rabbit, sheep, kidneys, intestine ....

Actually the first two (rabbit and sheep) weren’t bad. The last two (kidneys and intestine) I’d simply toss focusing on veggies and, at least with the kidneys ('rognons' en français), sopping up the gravy with pieces of baguette. Interesting diet. Lost a whole lot of weight.
