Cave La Bourgogne

This café at the foot of rue Mouffetard seems to be a place we always return to for a good meal at a good price.  This night, as we said farewell to friends, I turned and took a parting shot.  Fond memories of many meals shared here.

Le Beau Chapeau

On a Sunday last June I joined mes chère amies, Mary, Anne, Marie, Genie, Janet and Maya for a delicious lunch at la Bourgogne on rue Mouffetard. Can't you just hear all of our chatter and laughter?? I was taken by a young woman who came in with her friends wearing this lovely confection of a hat. I suspect they had been to church, most likely for a wedding. I wanted to take her picture wearing it, but she took it off and placed it on this shelf before I could. I setttled for this shot.

FROM SNAPSHOTS TO PHOTOGRAPHS

My next series of five two hour classes will be starting again soon. For those in the Birmingham AL area, contact me for more details. These classes are designed for the amateur photographer who wants to improve their vacation and family photos!

DISCOVERING THE MAGIC

For the more experienced photographers out there, I have a new class starting in September that will focus on creative ways to photograph our city!

Déjeuner á la Bourgogne

La Bourgogne, on rue Mouffetard is a great little place for lunch. That's my cassoulet of jambon et fromage at the bottom. May I just say I ate every bite. The sauce was creamy and cheesy and well, you know! And the top photo just says Paris café to me!

A special "Merci" to our dear Parisian amie Anne who chose this delightful place for the lunch we shared that day!

Paris Rouge XIV - Café Crème

This délicieux cup of café crème should warm you up on this cold winter day. Actually, I prefer expresso in Paris, but my friend's red cup with that great carafe d'eau in the background looked so inviting I had to have a photo!
