Maurice Leblanc - Arsene Lupin Part 6 of 99
“Oh, it’s all very well to laugh at me; but being the cousin and heir of the Duke, Relzières would have assumed the title, and I should have been Duchess just the same,” said Germaine triumphantly.
“Evidently that was all that mattered,” said Jeanne. “Well, dear, I must be off. We’ve promised to run in to see the Comtesse de Grosjean. You know the Comtesse de Grosjean?”
She spoke with an air of careless pride, and rose to go.
“Only by name. Papa used to know her husband on the Stock Exchange when he was still called simply M. Grosjean. For his part, papa preferred to keep his name intact,” said Germaine, with quiet pride.
“Intact? That’s one way of looking at it. Well, then, I’ll see you in Paris. You still intend to start to-morrow?” said Jeanne.
“Yes; to-morrow morning,” said Germaine.
Jeanne and Marie slipped on their dust-coats to the accompaniment of chattering and kissing, and went out of the room.
As she closed the door on them, Germaine turned to Sonia, and said: “I do hate those two girls! They’re such horrible snobs.”
“Oh, they’re good-natured enough,” said Sonia.
“Good-natured? Why, you idiot, they’re just bursting with envy of me—bursting!” said Germaine. “Well, they’ve every reason to be,” she added confidently, surveying herself in a Venetian mirror with a petted child’s self-content.#Duchess #Germaine #Jeanne #ComtessedeGrosjean #StockExchange #M_Grosjean #Paris #Marie #Sonia #Venetian #ArseneLupin #MauriceLeBlanc #mystery #booktoot

"#Baccalà Mantecato"
(“”)
Creamed #cod #fish, #Venetian, or Italian-style. I regularly revisit this recipe, and I love it just as much as #hummus or #BabaGanoush. On #Christmas Eve, I used it in stuffed shells #pasta.See more presentation and assembly in my comments to this post. Also see my personal page for other related posts.
There are simple and more complex recipes for creamed cod… this is just one of my variations! It’s more substantial.

A fine example of #InternationalTrade. Colourless #European #Venetian glass was brought to #India by #Arab traders where local craftsmen applied the emamelled decorations of #Animal motifs to produce beauties like this 'Vase', made in c1670 AD in #Deccan #india and now with #MinneapolisInstituteOfArt.
