Epicurist, Gourmet, Foodie

After seeing where exactly the island had relocated to, Bond had made several expeditious phone calls, which was why his class in short order found themselves in a small, hole-in-the-wall resturant in Mont St-Michel, being served fresh bagettes and a variety of cheeses while Bond alternatively lectured and flirted with the waitpersons.

"Modern food appreciation is in large drawn from French modes of cooking, as such our current location is fortious," he began. "The regional cuisine of Normandy, where we are now, contains ingredients such as cheeses, apples and various seafoods. Cider, rather than wine, is produced here..." he continued in a similar vein for some time.

"Now, I realise that it is far too early in the day for a main meal, but the wonderful staff here have prepared a number of dishes tradional to the area, as well as some for France as a whole, and I encourage you all to try as many as you feel you can."

"I think we are," Ella said easily. "And yes. It was especially hard because I'd never stitched in my life, and sewing mistress kept correcting me until I learned to embroider properly."

"I got bored and ran off to study fencing..." Cimorene said thoughtfully. "I never understood the point of teaching 'fine ladies' all the useless little things."

"It's because we're just meant to marry and look pretty," Ella said, rolling her eyes to show what she thought of that. "If my father'd had his way, I'd be married already."

"I ran away to go to a giants' wedding," she confided.

Cimorene joined her in the eye rolling. "So would I. Be married that is. I ran away from my engagement party."

Ella made a disgusted noise. "Did you at least like the guy at all, or was he all gross and old?"

"He was about our age, and quite handsome." Cimorene said. "But he had the intelligence and common sense of a wasp, and that's insulting to wasps." She paused. "He did prove to be quite stubborn."

"Nice to look at, then,but not what one wants in a husband," Ella decided. So running away rid you of him?"

Cimorene shook her head. "No...my father offered half the kingdom and my hand in marriage to whomever rescued me. In the end, I had to pretend to break my ankle so that he physically couldn't rescue me."
