Sacred Heart Paris.

Many say they love Paris, many say that Paris is magical, romantic, enchanting… maybe it is true, maybe it is true for many. One thing is certain sharing Paris with someone you love makes Paris a living theatre of delightful wonder.

We hiked up to "the big white church on top of the hill", that is what I overheard someone call it years ago, but that is another story for another day. 

Two croissants, a couple of figs, a lovely talk with Ramzi who gave me one of his painting (!!!!!), watched muscle man do his thing, then had some French Onion Soup, bought some lovely fabric at Marche Saint Pierre, then to the center of the Sacred Coeur and back to Rue Chateau to rest up for another day.

Lucky Happy Fortunate Wonder Blessing!

Croissants every morning. Of course only I will gain weight. Though my goal is to send those pounds to Cheryl. She said if I can do that it will be a happy catch! Imagine that: Someone who wants to gain weight. 

Notice the little menu plate, plus the salad serving set I found at the brocante with Cheryl last Saturday.

The darling wrapped package is how the bakery (by our apartment) wraps their baked goods. Daily croissants wrapped like a birthday gift each day. Oh France you will never cease to amaze me with your eye for detail, nor the happiness you deliver with such care.

 

 

Fabric marche saint pierre paris

 

 

Cheryl bought this large beautiful printed fabric for her daughter Alice who is caring for their home while she is here.

Isn't it a wonderful piece of fabric?  It can be made into a bedspread or a wall hanging.  

Cheryl has four beautiful children: 

Alice, Nicolas, Grace and Thomas. 

Three more gifts to come!
