<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #4c1130;">Schneider was born Rosemarie Magdalena Albach (1938) into a family
of actors in Nazi-era Vienna. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #4c1130;">After establishing herself in Austria, she moved to Paris
with her French actor fiancée, Alain Delon, in 1957.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #4c1130;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #741b47;">She made a name for herself in France but made only a few appearances in American film. One of them being the comedy <i>Good Neighbor Sam</i>,
with Jack Lemmon, and the other being from Woody Allen’s first
screenplay (which he also co-starred in).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">Her personal life was somewhat tragic. After ending her
relationship with Delon in 1966, she married German director and actor Harry
Meyen. They conceived a son David Christopher shortly before their divorce.
Meyen committed suicide in Hamburg, Germany in 1979. In 1975, Schneider married
her secretary, Daniel Biasini. They had a daughter several years later.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">Her son David died at the age of 14 by puncturing his
femoral artery trying to climb a spiked fence at his grandparents’ home. After
her son’s death, she began to drink heavily. On May 29, 1982 she was found dead
in her apartment in Paris. It was suspected she committed suicide by ingesting
fatal amount of alcohol and sleeping pills. </span><o:p></o:p></div>

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-size: large;">For the filling:</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">Combine 1 cup of juice, the wine, star anise, and cinnamon in a large saucepan. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean; add pod. Bring to simmer. Remove from heat. Cover; let stand 10 minutes. Add cherries and prunes/plums. Cover and simmer until fruit is plump, about 5 minutes. Discard star anise, cinnamon, and vanilla pod. Mix in apples and sugar; simmer until apples are tender but hold shape and liquid is reduced to 3 tablespoons, stirring occasionally, about 45 minutes. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">Mix in cornstarch and 2 tablespoons apple juice. Add to filling; stir over medium-high heat until filling thickens and boils, about 3 minutes. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cool slightly, cover, and chill.)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-size: large;">For the strudel:</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">Preheat oven to 375 F. Lightly butter heavy large baking sheet. Blend first 3 ingredients in processor until nuts are finely ground or pound in a plastic bag with mallet. Place 1 phyllo sheet on towel (cover remaining phyllo with plastic wrap and damp towel). Brush phyllo lightly with melted butter. Top with second phyllo sheet; brush with butter. Sprinkle with 3 or 4 tablespoons nut mixture. Continue with 6 more phyllo sheets, brushing each with butter and sprinkling with scant 3 or 4 tablespoons nut mixture. Top with remaining phyllo sheet. Brush with butter. Spoon filling atop phyllo stack in 12x3 inch log, starting 2 inches from 1 long side and 2 1/2 inches from each short side. Fold short edges over filling. Using towel as aid and beginning at edge close to filling, roll up strudel jelly-roll style. Place strudel, seam side down, on prepared baking sheet. Brush strudel with butter. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">Can be made 4 hours ahead. Chill. Pre-slice the roll two-thirds of the way through before putting it in the oven to make it easier to cut after baking.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">Bake strudel uncovered until golden, about 45 minutes. Let cool at least 30 minutes. </span></div>

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">For those who aren't hip to the cuisinier game, a bûche de noël is a spongey sheet cake that has been layered with a buttercream frosting, rolled up like a rug, and cut into pieces to shove in yo' mouf! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">And <i>excusez-moi? Marrons glacés? </i>Ya, those are chestnuts glazed and candied in sugar syrup. You will either love em or spit it out in the hand of the person who gave them to you. I just happen to like the heavy, gritty texture and earthy/nutty flavor of them candied. And thankfully I do, because this patisserie was jam packed with the stuff!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">These little bûches are the thicker, haute-couturer, French versions of the Twinkie. The cake casing was a tinge dry but the chestnut cream drizzled on top and and marron glacé paste filling compensated for it- leaving my mouth in a well balanced creamy chestnut nirvana. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;"><br />

Her family moved to San Francisco soon after Lana's birth.When Lana was 9, her father won some money playing a craps game, then tucked the money into his left sock and went back home.

</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">This bookstore was the mecca for Anglo-American writers in Paris during the 1920's. Writers such as Gertrude Stein, Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, James Joyce and later Henry Miller spent a fair amount of their time here. <i>Shakespeare and Company</i> is mentioned in a lot of their publishings due to the boutique's stature in the literary world at the time. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #274e13;">Needing a swank (english) read while in Paris, I decided to take a gander at this famed bookstore situated just a few feet from the Seine. Cramped, constricted, and narrow, my roommate Emma and I shuffled our way through the entrance and started searching for books. Daniel told me Tropics of Cancer by Henry Miller was a novel worth checking out.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"> The book is almost in journal-jotting form. Miller, a struggling writer from New York living in 1940's Paris describes all his sexual ventures with hookers and hardships as he wonders the City of Light. It goes without saying, I was down. As I went to the cashier to pay, the American woman at the counter branded the inside of my book with the legendary <i>Shakespeare and Company</i> stamp and bid me <b><i>ourvoir</i></b>. <i>Tropics of Cancer</i> is now one of my favorite tokens of Paris. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #274e13;"><br />

</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;"><i>Au Panetier</i> is a quaint Art Nouveau'd-out boulangerie tucked behind a tiny little Parisian square in the second arrondissement. The star of this show is the<i> pain au chocolat blanc</i>. Mind you, this is not a '<i>pain au chocolat</i>' which is the fraternal twin of the chocolate croissant. Naw, son. This was a different breed. This had the thick exterior of a large glazed dinner roll and the warm, fluffy and porous interior of a madeleine sprinkled with bits and pieces of oozing white chocolate morsels. I accompanied the bad boy with a nice cup of <i>cafe creme</i>. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;"><br />

</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #bf9000;">With an adorable Belle Epoque interior and reputation to boot, Angelina's has become a new favorite cliche. Rarely does one hear or see a native Parisian dining at this establishment- it is as if this little cafe was meant strictly for tourists alike. At first, I hesitated to give in. I want to <i>patisserie</i> as the Parisians <i>patisserie</i>- not as the vacationers do! And being that I'm <b>not</b> a chocoholic, their speciality <i>Mont Blanc</i> and <i>Le Chocolat Africain</i> was not an enticing factor. Then I reconsidered. After all, this joint has been open since 1903. They've got to be doing something right. Thank the lord I did. The cream and meringue mont blanc piped with mounds of not too sweet chestnut cream is now my new craving. They deserve every little bit of hype. It was so good I had to make an additional trip to try something new.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #bf9000;"><br />
