Only in France
I just ate foie gras and drank wine with a frozen dinner.
On another note, I checked out the Musee Delacroix today. It's a really small museum (actually it was his former house and where he passed away) with just a few exhibition rooms. The current expo is actually running in conjunction with the Ingres exhibit I saw at the Louvre last night. It has a few really colorful Delacroix sketches and pieces, and some smaller stuff by Ingres ( I assume anything important was taken by the 600-pound gorilla which is the Musee du Louvre).
From there, I took another visit to the Eglise St. Sulpice, which my host dad informed me is the largest church (in terms of square meters) in Paris.
There, I saw two amazing Delacroix frescoes. Here's a link to one of them.

certainly a frozen dinner a la francais deserves wine and an hors d' oevre, perhaps foie gras was overkill (certainly over-stuffed, sorry for the awful pun)....
