Today we did the Cook'n with class Morning Market Class
First stop.. cheese shop.. learned lots of info about the different types of cheeses in France!
These cheeses were aged on wicker which is why they look all prettyyy like that
Next stop, butcher shop to buy our meats... they cut the meat each morning & sell out 95% by the end of the day. cool huh? fun meat facts. woohoo!
