ReplyDeleteIf only your photos had a scratch and sniff option :) beautiful - ah miss Paris so - How did you deal with the stikes?
ReplyDeleteAh, Paris...is there anywhere on earth as magical as the city of lights! I hope that you have a wonderful time. It looks like you are:)
ReplyDeleteMichele: No, we really weren't affected by the strikes: just didn't do the Metro that day.
ReplyDeleteIt's been just so gorgeous: this is, once again, the time of year to be here. We actually took the Batobus (!) today and enjoyed it: nice and sunny and restful for the feet!
Lindaraxa: No, actually the building is 1640!!!! I have a pic of the plaque out front and will post eventually. It's the marble stairs that are so worn that you really notice!
ReplyDeleteHi Libby, I'm so sorry that we didn't get to officially meet at the cafe in Paris! With all the chaos it was crazy. I love your blog and can't wait to dig in and hope we do meet in Paris one day! xoc
ReplyDeleteHi Libby,
ReplyDeleteIt was wonderful to meet you at the blogger meet, though it seemed so brief. Sounds like you are enjoying your extended stay and looks like a great location. Those figs are reminding me of the most fabulous fig dessert I had one night.........and I need to forget all those and go on a carb and sugar free menu for at least a few weeks. Enjoy your stay and I bet the weather is still beautiful. Were we lucky? XO
