C'est mardi le treize séptembre

J'avais vingt ans. Je ne laisserai personne dire que c'est le plus bel âge de la vie.
I was 20 years old. I won't let anyone say that it's the most beautiful part of life.

Trivia: The ascoma (fruiting body) of truffles is highly prized as a food. Brillat-Savarin called the truffle "the diamond of the kitchen". Truffles are held in high esteem in French, northern Italian and Istrian cooking, as well as in international haute cuisine. Looking for truffles in open ground is almost always carried out by this specially trained animal, although more recently dogs have been preferred.

Truffle-hunting pigs were used for many years to find them. But because the pigs were too prone to eating the truffles once they found them, they were replaced by dogs, who are easier to restrain.

Before dogs were trained to do their job, PIGS were used to find truffles.
