Your post was very helpful and funny as well.<br /><br />Thank You,<br />DhruvitAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-56065171348448965582011-12-27T12:10:54.335-05:002011-12-27T12:10:54.335-05:00The term is used in French and not only in Paris o...The term is used in French and not only in Paris or France for windows shopping as you indicate. I believe the intent of the translation refers to a wanton desire for the item you are looking at. Translated literally it would be left to the imagination as buying windows which would have no relationship or meaning with the term. The same reason jokes when translated need a lot of work or they loose their intent or pun.<br /><br />Café au lait anyone au petit bistro du coin.<br /><br />SergeSerge Hayotnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-36664564517311143572009-12-14T15:42:00.335-05:002009-12-14T15:42:00.335-05:00LOVE everything french, especially their chocolate...LOVE everything french, especially their chocolate.
