100 French Strangers - Attention!!!

French Stranger #70

This skillful waiter at Ma Bourgogne was a stranger the first day I arrived, but after that he took very good care of me whenever I stopped by for a glass of wine or dinner.

PS ... and he never dropped the first glass!

And for my dear friends that have followed my new baby kitty, read all about how she got her cute name and see what my dear friend Shell has created. You too can buy her artwork here!

In a Quiet Room

For me, part of the charm of the Musée de Rodin is its grand setting in the former Hôtel Biron. I love the old wood floors, antique chandeliers, aged mirrors and the beautiful shuttered windows with views of the gardens. I found this quiet spot on a cold and rainy afternoon in November, 2008.

Oh my goodness. My chère amie Shell Sherree has done it once again. She has taken this photo at Père Lachaise and turned it into this lovely work of art. I am so touched that she has chosen another of my photographs to illustrate in her own special way. My dear Shell, I have no words.
