Fête Nationale
Yesterday (still today in France) was Bastille Day, arguably France's most prolific National Holiday, celebrating the storming of the Bastille Prison way back when in 1789. 
This is a major day in France, particularly in Paris where there are Military Parades along the Champs-Élysées and Fireworks at the Tour Eiffel, hopefully next year the Mayorettes can catch it live.
But for this year all I could do was celebrate by Cooking and drinking nice wine. 
On the menu Filet Mignon and Gratin Dauphinois with a healthy serving of French Mustards. 
Out of a Paul Bocuse recipe book given to my mother by me in 1986 (I was 1).
Vive le France!
