Bonjour ! :)
Voici notre semaine grecque ! Sur l'article du début de semaine dernière, Denisa nous a suggesté de manger l'Océanie et nous avons tiré Niue. Nous mangerons ce pays la semaine prochaine. Continuez à nous proposer des continents dans les commentaires :)
Nous avons remplacé les yaourts grecs par du yaourt au lait de coco.
