Fondue Dinner

After an intense week of study of French history (the 1970s) and politics (the question of social citizenship of French Muslims), it was time for our weekly group dinner.  This Thursday we went Swiss by visiting Pain, vin, fromages in the shadow of the Centre Georges Pompidou, just off Rue du Temple.  The restaurant, which boasts a cave authentique du 17eme siècle (a vintage seventeenth-century setting), serves a variety of fondues, raclettes, tartiflettes, and aligo.




Several of us tried the fondue bourguignonne, with beef and sauces.



Among other things, we each listed what we hope to do and see in Paris before the semester's end.  It's hard to believe we have just two weeks left!  One highlight of this past week was Maria Mitchell's opportunity to attend a reception at ACCENT for the host families. After months of hearing about these special people, it was a true pleasure for her to meet the families who have so generously taken our students into their homes.  We all agreed that every student has learned a great deal this semester – about Paris, French language and culture (including food!), and herself.

  1. I have been suffering from (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS) for the last four years and had constant outbreaks and pains. During the first year,I had faith in God that i would be healed someday, and i was taking treatments and meds from my doctor. I was taking accyclovir alongside some ointment. I spent so much on meds but the blisters still return after some months. It was early this year, i was using the Internet to see if i could gather any information to get rid of this virus once and for all, using natural herbs. Then i came across a testimony of a woman who was healed from diabetes and Cancer of the breast by one Herbal Dr.yakubu. I copied the email address of the doctor after her testimony. So I sent a message to Dr.yakubu telling him about my Herpes Virus. he told me not to worry that as long as I will make use of the herbs as directed, with God, I will soon testify. I thought he was bluffing. So we got talking and he asked me some questions. He prepared and sent me some herbs in 70ml bottles and ointment, then he guided me on how to use them. In less than 2 months of usage, i was totally healed. The blisters disappeared and the pains gone too. I went for a test and the result was Negative. I had to use a different hospital and the result was same. Since over nine months now, I am Herpes Free.... Please my advise is this, if you have similar sickness or any other sickness at all, Please do not forget to reach out to Dr.yakubu on : (dr.yakubuherbalhealingclinic@gmail.com). you can also reach the doctor on whatsapp +2348057353647
