The serve a simple but delicious quicke in their cafeteria that gently coaxes the jet-lagged back to life. A walk out on their top floor is a great vista on Paris, and don't forget to check out Sacre Coeur hiding behind you. Finally, I walk through their cosmetics department and adore the beautiful dome above. I would love to see what your brushes would do with that dome.<BR/><BR/>Merci for sharing your work with us . . .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-31858038299915635392009-02-06T16:29:00.000-05:002009-02-06T16:29:00.000-05:00just to be contrary,Hermes....just to be contrary,<BR/>Hermes....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-59454816182147182432009-02-06T16:15:00.000-05:002009-02-06T16:15:00.000-05:00I love what you are doing with the colors of those...I love what you are doing with the colors of those cookies in watercolor.
