Take a walk down rue du Cherche-Midi and you will find Poilane bakery's flagship store. Several years ago we stayed in a lovely apartment, just a few doors down. Yes, we bought bread, and I was fortunate to be able to take some photos.

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.

This is exactly what I need right now: a trip to Paris and good bakery!
OH my! I'm such a sucker for bread and this is as beautiful as I'm sure it's delicious!
THeir bread is officially delicious!
You can't beat the smell of freshly baked bread.
I can smell freshly baked bread just by looking at your photo! Well done!
Nice swirls. I've seen bread like this, but it does seem to take independent bakers!
How brilliant! The good thing being that in Paris you can eat all the cheese, pastries and bread you like because you do so much walking.. Aimee and I actually came home after two weeks in Paris 5kilos lighter than when we went.. all those stairs :) so good!
