I was going to make an apricot pie. I made the pastry, I prepared the apricots (dried, as it's the middle of winter), and then I don't know what happened, but we ended up with Chocolate Shortbread and Brown Sugar Cookies.
After that sort of excess, a healthy soup was in order ~ Borlotti Bean, Pancetta and Cavolo Nero.
It was Bastille Day, so S.O. got in the Francophile spirit of things with his tres chic striped T.
