Happy Bastille Day!

Today is our annual Bastille Day celebration! It has been a tradition in the small pharmacy satellite where I work to celebrate with tasty French treats- it started over 10 years ago with just myself and the technician I work with- and now is celebrated annually by our little group. We have fattening treats and invite people to stop by our office for a croissant and jam, cheese, fruit and crackers. Bastille day is also called  La FĂȘte Nationale and is basically 4th of July for the french. None of us our particularly interested in french culture, it just happened to be an odd tradition that we find fun- another excuse for a mini-pot-luck of sorts. So, grab a croissant and celebrate the liberation of France!
