Sweets My Sweet ~ Paris, France

Goodness how I miss France...

From all the pastry choices at the local patisserie...



To having the best "Paris Brest" from "La Pâtisserie des Rêves"...


To enjoying Japanese/French pastries at Aki Boulangerie ...



And last but not least, sampling the best macarons from Pierre Hermé (sorry Laudurée!)...
[Being in Pierre Hermé actually made me want to become a pastry chef...)



I would like to go back right now, please!

Musée Jacquemart-André ~ Paris, France

Let's pretend for a moment that this is our house...where every corner is dressed in opulence, and every ceiling is painted...













One can only dream... :)

Have a happy weekend!

Recovered From Jet Lag

What a terrible business this jet lag is! Thankfully I am now recovered...

Sooo...I went to France to help transport my (step) sister's pet bunny Mrs. Tiggywinkle...


Many hours later, we both arrived safe and sound. Here is Tiggy in her new Paris pen... ;)


Too bad for Tiggy, she couldn't come to Max Poilâne with us...ahhaaaa...



More of Paris to come....!!!

* In Love *

This little gem of a photography book is "Mirai-Chan" by Kawashima Kotori.

Each photo is beautifully captured and the book is perfectly brilliant...

Perhaps, I feel, in many ways I can still relate to this little girl.







I'm off to France tomorrow and will be back in 2 weeks.

Happy August to you...and see you here soon...
xoxo
