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.

I'd be happy with a little piece of brie, s.v.p. :)
God bless you!
Cezar
It all looks good to me, Virginia. I wouldn't want to choose.
Why choose? You are completely right "When in Paris, have them all!"
Oooh Yum! I really do wonder how the french stay so slim!!!
Well, I am serving coffee of your choice on my blog this morning so we have a complete meal to offer! Too funny, mon amie!
Bises,
G
Delicious photo! Dang - I'm trying to reach through my computer screen for a sample of the goodies - it's not working!
c'est bien d'avoir trop de choix on trouve toujours quelque chose qui puisse nous plaire!
bon weekend Virginia
Weekend,
Bien sûr!!:)
Leif, I'm making myself hungry!
Genie, I'll go get a cup from you this morning and I think I"ll have the pain au chocolat.
Simone, they don't eat all of this! HA
Vreni, sometimes I want to try them all!
Shell, come on just a bite!
Cezar, you may certainly have it and would you like some bread with it?? :)
Mauropucci, Google tells me "by the throat" ! :)
You and the famille obviously know how to live! Miam. I'm enjoying the FH soundtrack too. :~}
Bon weekend, V --
Wow!! Very nice music. An excellent addition.
I'm rather partial to the baguette and brie...and I'll be over soon for that cup of cafe Genie!!!
wv: carat...no carats for me unless they're the sparkly kind!!!
yummy! i wish i had some of that bread to go w/some hummus i have.
Very tasty, Virginia. This is just about right for me. So, what will you be having?
Haha! Virginia, Genie, yourself and moi are all on the same wave length this morning, what a scrumptious breakfst that looks, I think I would definitely have a bit of everything there. Love, love the music!!
Mon dieu! That all looks just délicieux You can never beat French pastries or breads.
I bet you miss this yummy stuff!
I love your Itunes music...great addition to your blog! At first i didn't know where the music was coming from!!!
I"m so glad you had your fill of the pastries and fromage aujourd'hui. I hoped you'd enjoy the music and it looks like you do. I think it adds just a nice touch to my blog and I hope you do to.
Our kitchen looked like that most days on our last Paris visit. It can't be bettered anywhere in the world.
Amen to that!
Virginia, thank you for visiting my blog and giving me my chuckle for the day!!
On my first trip to France in 1993, at a restaurant/B&B in Carcassone, I was served a bread/roll that had little spikes in the center that looked like the back of a dinosaur. I have always wondered if that was a specific kind of pastry ....
