Jacqueline Fabre is an IT consultant form Lyons

• Yes, I cook every evening for my family. I often make soup or traditional French dishes like “boeuf bourguignon”, which is a kind of beef and red wine stew, and then we have cheese and salad. It may seem a lot but we don’t eat big portions. What is important for me is quality, not quantity.

• Yes, I am trying to eat less chocolate.

• I think people’s diets are getting worse and worse. It’s quite strange because we have a lot of information now about how bad fast food is for you. I am afraid it’s a problem in a lot of European countries.

• Not at home. I think most of the food I cook is healthy, but occasionally when I eat out I have something unhealthy, but it doesn’t worry me.

• Yes, definitely. For me good meals with the family make me happy!

• I’m quite traditional and I have three main meals a day. For breakfast, I like hot chocolate, and bread and butter with honey and jam. For lunch, I often eat in a restaurant with my colleagues. I usually have vegetables and meat or fish but I love pasta and rice too. In the afternoon, I have fruit with biscuits or a piece of chocolate. In the evening, I have a proper meal with my family.

Thank you, Figurine!
I can hear your acting skills here! :)
Which part of the US do you come from?

My pleasure! Thank you.
I've lived in the Southeast for many years, but I grew up in several places and my parents are midwesterners. I don't speak with a strong, typical southern accent, it's probably more midwestern but with influence from the South. So I think my accent is not purely one or the other.

Thank you! Your voice was very pleasant to listen to!
Perhaps you'd like to be my penpal?

Hello again,
Oh that’s very flattering! I cannot promise that I’ll be a good penpal as my life feels very full right now as it is, and I have many time pressures, but if you’d like to mention your email we can give it a try.
