Bastille Day!

Bastille Day is right around the corner! Commemorating the beginning of the French Revolution with the storming of the Bastille, Bastille Day or “La Fête Nationale”, on July 14th is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, French national holidays.  If you’re lucky enough to be in Paris for the celebration then watching the Bastille Day Military Parade on the Champs-Elysées is an absolute must.  Dating back to 1880, it is the oldest and largest military parade held in Europe. However, if you aren’t fortunate enough to be soaking up all the fun in Paris, then why not bring some of France home to your own kitchen?  Check out this awesome recipe, courtesy of Huffington Post, for a Frangipane Apple Tart with Apricot Glaze sure to bring a slice of France to you.
