Title: Hello from Paris
Post by: traroth on 20 Oct 2017, 08:07: Hi, I'm from France. I'm reading QC for at least 5 years, now, and only now got aware of the "QC Forum" at the bottom of the page. Silly, isn't it?

I'm a software engineer, I love science-fiction and fantasy, cinema and roleplaying games. Also some hardware hacking. I also speak german almost as good I speak french, having grown up on the french-german border.

I followed through Alice Grove but I liked it moderately.

Some other webcomics I like : Sinfest, Pidjin and Fredo, xkcd and Commitstrip.

Post by: Tova on 22 Oct 2017, 03:54: Greetings and welcome. I'm happy to meet another fan of Commitstrip (luckily for me, also published in English).

Please enjoy a slice of my home-made Kouign Amann. I hope you're not on a diet.

Post by: traroth on 23 Oct 2017, 00:20: Thank you. Kougn Aman is great, but where I come from, we usually prefer Kougelhopf. It's really great for breakfast, instead of brioche. Sadly, it's impossible to find some in Paris. I only eat it when I get back to Strasbourg, visiting family or so.

Post by: Tova on 23 Oct 2017, 02:54: Thanks for the tip! Hopefully in the future I will be able to visit that region, and I'll be sure to look for some Kougelhopf to try. In the meantime, I'll add it to my list of recipes I want to try making.

It returns only your message. Which makes it an interesting recursive joke...
