We celebrate everyone's birthday at the Catho at lunch time. We all eat together in a large dining room for the 35 participants and 6 profs. After the dessert course and before the coffee is served, the person with the birthday that day (or soon if it falls on a weekend--as was my case) is presented with flowers, a card signed by all and "bises" (kisses on the cheek that the French are so known for). After the presentation , everyone sings. My bithday was celebrated on a Friday (day before my actual birthday). After the pomp and circumstance of the presentation on Friday, I went out with some friends to visit an old church (i know, they're all old here) and to our café, Le Kent (pictured in a previous post "Cuisine Part Un").
