I agree with many including Bonne Maman blueberry jam, morning rolls, croissants, real butter and real bread (I see a theme) but can you explain to me what a kilted sausage is or shouldn't I ask? My next blog ,may also have to a list .....
Kilted sausage = pig in a blanket = sausage wrapped in bacon. The first term is definitely my favourite!
Looking forward to seeing your list.

Oh I'm definitely going to have to do this too. Roast potatoes in goose fat...mmmmmmmmm x
yes, i second the roast potatoes in goose fat! also scandinavian hot dogs -- so curious about those!
You should Carine, it's fun and I'm nosey...
Hi Sarah - I don't know why but they sell hot dogs everywhere in Scandinavian cities and they are amazing. In Denmark they come with a type of mustard that seems to be hot dog specific, pickles, and crispy onion. They are really good and when in Scandinavia, which can be pretty pricey, a tasty and quick bite to eat.
