Previously, I have mentioned Palais Royal, my most favorite spot in Paris, along with Concorde, the Tuileries, Jardin du Luxembourg…..maybe I should just go with, all of PARIS is my favorite spot! I don’t think anyone who knows me would argue with that.
Now that I got that off my chest, back to Palais Royal…and Le Prince […]
Last week, friends of my parents called to ask me where they could find good jazz in Paris. I was able to direct them to one place I had been and was certain they could be recommended to others once they visited my selection. They reported back, that yes, indeed they had a great time […]
Love this photo. It looks like a vintage postcard in the background with a contemporary foreground. See that chair on the right? That has my name on it and if I were there today, my rear-end would be parked in it and I’d have my headphones on, with the quirky, jazzy sounds of Jaime Cullum filling my […]
The weather has been magnificent these last few days in Paris, beautiful enough to leave the parapluies (umbrellas) at home for a rainy day ;-) and run outside to soak up the sun. The parks that dot the city will be filled with tourists and residents alike, all positioning themselves to grab green metal parc […]
Yes, yes, yes, by all means, this should be on your list of things to do in Paris. As much as I talk about other gardens that are my favorites, Jardin du Luxembourg is equally as grand as the Tuilieres and can be as intimate as Palais Royal. It is deceiving in size as it […]
You will hear much about wine throughout this blog because…. quite simply, I love it. All shapes and sizes, reds, whites, bubbly. Even warm wine or as the French call it–vin chaud.
Two years ago while my youngest daughter and I were living in Paris, we felt the city wasn’t working as hard as […]
Hey, it’s not always glitz and glamour in Paris! Sometimes when you walk around, you just don’t know what you’re going to come across, and to be honest with you, depending on the circumstances you’re not really sure if what you’re seeing is really what you’re seeing! I mean, if you’ve had a little too […]
As I wrote in my first post about the Coupe du Monde de Rugby, I was not interested in watching the games and said I would rather do some serious shopping instead! Well, can I help it if rugby fever just took over Paris big-time and swept me up along with it?!
After yesterday’s match with […]
I never thought that I would be writing more than one post about rugby on my blog, but can I help it if Paris fans continue to grow as Les Bleus continue to win! I mean when even the statues in Paris begin to wear rugby T-shirts or you see T-shirts suspended in the middle […]
A great festival every year since 1934 is the annual Fête des Vendanges de Montmartre (the Grape Harvest Festival of Montmartre). The festival takes place next week-end from the 12th to the 14th of October which celebrates the wine from the local vineyards. Each year the festival honors a celebrity with the previous year’s vintage; […]
