My favorite 'French home away from French home' right now is to go grocery shopping at Carrefour near my office in Labarge. It really is just like going to a Target Greatland back home in Minneapolis. They have everything for sale there...and at better prices than the other grocery stores around us.
One noticeable difference is that they have a lot of cheese for sale...but no cheddar ironically, as I found out with my brother-in-law Dan. However, they have 3 full aisles of cheese...and it's cheap from what we are use to paying. I have become an overnight huge fan of Roquefort cheese. I now typically have my refrigerator stocked with a 'primary' and a 'backup' Roquefort...ya never know when you're gonna need it.
PS. I know I'm not using the word 'ironic' correctly. It's just something I like to throw into conversation a lot...ironically.
