By now you know how I love to visit Merci , every trip I make to Paris. What many don't know about this store is that profits go back to a children's charity in Madagascar, hence the name. One of my favorite spots is the downstairs area where you can find all kinds of hip household and garden items. There's also a neat little café overlooking their courtyard garden. This trip, they'd used some of their terrific metal letters for the wall. How apropos!
And on that note, may I wish you all al BON weekend!

Paris je t'aime
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

C'est si bon! How do you say same to you in French? Have a great weekend!Meme a toi!
Household : mon traducteur dit "Maison de gratte-cul". C'est bien ça ?
Oui, merci V et bon week-end à vous!
J´adore Merci!!! I´ve been to the café in the bookshop but not yet to the lunchroom in the basement.
Alan, well let's see if I can explain here. HIP, mean cool, fun, funky. Household means items like plates, napkins, glasses and gadgets you use in your home. Peter bought some very cool placemats and napkins that come on a roll and you tear them off as you need them.
