Send Yourself to Paris When I miss Paris, I indulge in some of my favorite things that transform me (in my imagination? lol) to Paris    1) Surround yourself with little Parisian things: a t-shirt, a small cosmetic pouch, ladurée, & many post cards of Parisian café chairs and tables   Photos courtesy of Daemonds foods & Bobbette and Belle 2) Bake Macaroons: I have attempted making macaroons once before (mine turned out like cauliflowers gone bad) You might have better luck with a better recipe on Desperately Seeking Macaroons - i'll try this recipe soon, je promise  3) Give yourself a break on a Louis XVI chair and.. philosophize about your life, ..dream beautiful. 4) Listen to Peter Sarstedt: I simply looooove this song  5) Get a fluffy poodle: and adorn it with a rhinestone collar, ..and if you wish not to have a real one, go to the nearest Accessorize shop and buy a cell phone charm version ;p 6) Take a virtual tour through Saint-Germain: ..walk by Les Deux Magots, the Dior boutique, and the seafood restaurant tucked on the left sidestreet, ..mmMMmmm View Larger Map   6) Send your Pet to Paris to window-shop: Carol Gillot from Paris Breakfasts paints gorgeous water colors of your pet windowshopping in Paris. I'm soooo sending my horse and Tantra there =D & I say horse because I haven't made up my mind whether I'd want her to paint a portrait of IB or Sultan yet >_<  7) Have a cup of chocolate: preferable in a glass cup, with a biscuit in the beautiful outdoors (a la Paris)  8) Hang it on your front door: A typical door knocker in France is one made with brass, a hand holding a pomegranate -- buy it here     9) It's all in the wallet: keep photos of Paris' shop fronts and cafe chairs -stacked & otherwise- in your wallet, take them out while waiting for your appointment at the clinic, or while getting electrified in your painful laser session - guaranteed to make the pain subside. 10) You are the one for me, for me, formidable: ..and finally, sing along Charles Aznevoure You are the one for me, for me, for me, formidable Labels: Books, La Dolce Vita, Music, Travel $6 in my moola box | link | email this post |
