  6. Paris was not what I expected, but it has grown on me since I've been there (does that make sense?). I loved the boutique hotel where I stayed with my daughter. Loved wandering around the streets. Loved finding the fabric district and the Saturday antiques markets. And the food! Oh my, the food! You'll have so much fun.

  7. Oui Oui...you are headed to Paris.....it will never leave you. Once there you are cast under its spell, I promise! SO exciting and I cannot imagine a more wonderful place to celebrate the tremendous accomplishment of being married for 25 years! Congrats Michele and all the new baubles are so pretty...love that you don't see them coming and going, one of a kind. Wore my beautiful spoon pin the other night to a cooking party and it was the talk of the party, everyone LOVED it!

Can't wait to shop and eat my way through Paris! It will be fun to hear about your plans. I did a post back in February - "it's complicated" regarding our Paris trip.

Angelina's for their famous hot chocolate, after a day of shopping on the Right Bank. On the Left Bank...loved Recamier for the worlds most delicious souffles.
