Postcards from Paris: {pillow-forts and train rides}
Je suis revenu.
The children in France have vacances every other month. The break is usually around two weeks, and though I spent the first week building pillow-forts de faire dodo and making nutella sandwiches for gouter, I spent this past week in Germany to say good-bye to good-friends.
As I sat comfortably in my window seat, I was feeling and seeing glimpses of Spring. The light-green grass beginning to sprout and the sun rays shining through the window, it had seemed as if Puxatony Phil had made an accurate prediction, and I thought that I would be able to pack away my puffy-coat. Alas, once returning to Paris, I was welcomed back by grey skies. I am still holding on to the small glimpses and keeping my fingers crossed.
Bisous,
Reba

Signature Aprons
The french word of the day is "La grenouille"!
Bonjour! Comment ça va?
Today it's raining in Savannah, so to lighten the mood I will sing a popular french children's song about a frog who loves the rain!
Le mot du jour est "La grenouille"
"Il pleut,
Il mouille.
C'est la fête à la grenouille!"
The word of the day is "Frog"
"It's raining,
It's wet.
Time for the frog to celebrate!"
It's wet outside, so come escape the rain in The Paris Market's warm ambience and dance with me!

Polaroids from Paris: {Le Marché aux Puces}
At the end of the metro line 4, Porte Clignancourt, through the stands of Asian-imported shoes and bags, cheap clothing, and a number of Rastafarian outlets selling varied scented incense, one will eventually get to the good stuff. The stuff that is worn down with age, the things that are slightly tattered, objects that once shined brand new, but now have a translucent layer of time on them.
Vintage Playing Cards, French books of Bridge-playing, and old champagne caps with vintage graphics are just a few things on their way to Savannah.
Bisous,

Polaroids from Paris: {A Stroll Down Le Canal Saint-Martin}
It has become one of my favorite areas in Paris, though I only give you a glimpse of it's charm, the Canal Saint-Martin is best experienced with warmer weather. When the temperature is comfortable, and the sun is gleaming through the city, I love strolling down the canal along the cobblestone. The crowd of people
picnic-ing are some of the most interesting to watch. With baguettes, assortment of cheeses, and a variety of different beverages sipped from plastic cups which accompany the "bo-bo" crowd I long to see the sight of Spring. Though there was some activity today along the canal, it was still incredibly evident that winter was still amongst us here is Paris.
Now for Savannah, might I bring up Isabelle's French Word of the Day, and emphasize her suggestion to "prendre un café à la terrasse du Paris Market"
I can just imagine the Savannah Spring season beginning to surface.
Bisous,
