Bûche de Noël

(360/365) « La période des fêtes, c'est comme la bûche de Noël : il faut savoir la savourer avant de la finir sans s'en rendre compte. » - Hanluo Taihan

The bûche de Noël at le Rêve (“A modern twist on the traditional French Yule Log: Cheesecake mousse with pistachio crémeux, vanilla bavarois, and morello cherry cream” garnished with pistachios and snowflake cookies) is pretty and delicious, but if you’d like a sweet treat without the calories, check out the 2018 most beautiful bûches de Noël in Paris.

Week 52 - Creative: Self Portrait

(357/365) This year it's in a creative category, so be creative. You really have room to express yourself. You can interpret the assignment literally or figuratively. Unlike the other categories, the idea of this category is to let your artistic impression shine.

“Look out 'cause here I come; And I'm marching on to the beat I drum; I'm not scared to be seen; I make no apologies, this is me!" - The Greatest Showman. This is it! This is me! #dogwood52 #dogwoodweek52
