I am really very happy because a lot of bloggers and bloggers have responded to my call
I'll post your entries gradually. We must let the pleasure last as long as possible is not it? :-)

Sunday last week (between Christmas and the day of year) it would be a good meeting at home with the family of my godmother ... But sometimes it's like that in Quebec, there are missed because the world runs wild ... The thaw, rain, wind, frost, thaw, short queues electric break and then at night a whole neighborhood or city is left without electricity subscribers in 8000 were private and 52 000 in Jonquière Quebec . My neighborhood in Jonquière was the last city to be reconnected, we were more than 12 hours without electricity, some have told me 18 hours. This means three meals at picnic and eat cold huddled in our faux fur throws. With only playing for us unwind and drowsiness to overcome stress. But the reading was unthinkable a few hours, too hard to concentrate what!
It is true that we had our historic flood in Saguenay! After that, I also had two water damage in one house, a year apart, the stream adjoining the house knocked on the door one evening while they were preparing fresh pasta for dinner . It was necessary to rebuild the basement and renovate two consecutive years. The beautiful spring cleaning. After which he put the house up for sale. Hello campaign! We arrive in town. Understand that when a story like this happens, a small power outage a day, it puts us on the break, the stress rises to the surface alone. And I forgot to mention our first fire: a great fire of proteins with a ham who ran out of water! We had our share! Three years of crazy! And I have not mentioned the ice storm that had hit a large portion of Quebec there are about 10 years. Wow, the weather in Quebec, that we know.
Returning to the city life here and now or last week, this morning we had brunch with the family and I had to cancel everything. No electricity is not going away:
no heating, it is like a large refrigerator
no background music
impossible to make coffee or tea
impossible to cook or make waffles
cook good meat pie or sausage starry
or ham or so.
No phone because we are connected with Videotron!
No computer either to pass the time, we found ourselves frankly disappointed both, each on his couch eating his socks! Grrrrrrr ... It was not like that provided my brunch. Hydro Quebec Cheers!
So today here's what I improvised with mini-skewers brunch that my boyfriend were pretty but not too too much of the season he said to add when I offered him cold for supper because we had the power to 18h20 and from 17h only approximately we started to get really hungry. We finally decided to eat the cheese and the dish that our guests who had pointed us had still left out of kindness. I could not reach everyone, they are also without electricity and phone ... The poor, they are away empty handed and me on the floor, with their wine and cheese apologetic and confused at the highest point ... I still have discomfort, remorse and disappointment indescribable ... Here is as I said, but my mind wanders so much, quiche based breakfast kebabs air Easter brunch. On second thought, this must be the fault of the skewers finally made it too sweet ...
A pastry crust 9-inch prebaked at 450 F for 8 minutes (I had not rolled dough rest in the fridge)
