enjoy the outdoors and run through the fields. hope you have a happy friday and great weekend! image above: forever flower fields in the french countryside between paris and the loire valley.

racing by

slow down, breathe and just be as life races by. it's a way of life that the parisians have perfected. i might just need a little more guidance from them . . .

anisette brasserie

indulge in a pain au chocolat et café for le petit dejeuner, and maybe stay for dejeuner (try the warm goat cheese beet salad and moules frites - trés délicieux). lastly, finish off your fantastic meal with some vacherin glacé (lavender ice cream). i love, love paris and i'm ecstatic, chef alain giraud has brought anisette brasserie into our neighborhood. now, if only i could walk to the eiffel tower after lunch. . .

happy red, white and blue weekend!
