French quarantine 2.0, day 20

16,337 steps 

We're feeling more optimistic today. Both of us went running in the morning--helps with just about anything. Then we met with our banker about refinancing our loan, bringing the rate from ~3.5% down to 1.3%. Yeah! 

Eric talked to the girl's coach at Cavigal (someone he worked with for a few years back when he was coaching there), and he said they could take Inga and Ivy. Zari is thinking of trying out there as well. It's easier to get to: 13 minutes on the tram, versus driving or taking the bus to the neighboring city of Villefranche. 

Ivy said lunch was great today--she took seconds of the vegetable and main dish. I looked up the menus for the two days they ate at school this week: 

Tuesday: 
  • Céleri rémoulade (celery root remoulade) 
  • Escalope de dinde au jus corsé (turkey escalope with aromatic concentrated gravy) 
  • Petits pois au beurre (green peas with butter) 
  • Baguette 
  • Brie 
  • Gaufre au sucre glace (waffle with powdered sugar) 
Thursday: 
  • Concombre et dés de féta (cucumber & feta salad) 
  • Boulettes de soja sauce orientale (soy "meatballs" with oriental sauce) 
  • Baguette 
  • Semoule bio (organic semolina) 
  • Yaourt bio aromatisé à la framboise (organic raspberry-flavored yogurt) 
Okay, I want to eat lunch at their school! I love that they sit down and eat one course at a time, with real plates and utensils.
