Before we moved to France, I never imagined how difficult the simple task of grocery shopping would be.  I knew that it would take some patience and translation, but I never even considered the fact that I might not be able to find everyday items – or at least I considered everyday items in the U.S.  After many tears and failed attempts, I have finally figured out what’s what and where to find the things I need.  I have even managed to locate some of the items that aren’t that common in typical French supermarkets.  So I have decided to do a series on what ingredients I buy and where I find them to help other frustrated expats.
