Bastille Day Celebration

None of us are French, but my dear friends and I decided to celebrate Bastille Day anyway. We love cheese, champagne, and pretty much all things French, so why not, right? It's basically an excuse to get together to drink and eat fromage. 

Apricot Stilton, Rosemary Asiago and a Chipotle and Cranberry White Cheddar.


Olives, cornichon, green apples, grapes and dried apricots rounded out the meal.

Not exactly French, but we liked the label for obvious reasons.
The grenache was actually delicious with our cheese smorgasbord.
Here's the table view.
Macarons from Layer Cake Bakery
Post-celebration breakfast: lovely leftovers of Blueberry Chevre on La Brea Bakery Bread.
