A tiny surprise today-a New York breakfast.
Wayne Thiebaud Bacon & Eggs hangs on the wall planting a visual seed.
After all breakfast is breakfast. Merisi said:Past 7 AM I am getting worried. No Parisbreakfast today?
My studio is full of mini Rement breakfasts.You want croissants? I've got them. You want baguettes? I've got them. Confiture? Just name it.
For the Paris-lovers out there the tiny surprise is:I booked my flight yesterday-I'm going back to Paris.
Though we're still playing with mini-food here in mini-land, in 5 weeks we'll be back playing with Parisien food. I'm ordering a special mini-suitcase to take some stuff with me. Hasn't that croissant earned a chance to visit Paris too?
Petit dejeuner is served.
ParisBreakfasts made it into lovely Somerset Artful Blogging quarterly magazine.
It's a magazine that focuses on artists publishing creative blogs online.
PB was interviewed by France Today online for Frenchie-oriented blogs. Now where is my mini waffle set with the syrup?
Dear Saucy Pumpkin~

Paris Breakfast:
ReplyDeleteI see, instead of painting eggs, you have been down to New Orleans to fetch some Mardi Gras spirit!
Merci for everything. :-)))
Congratulations on your notice in France Today, and on your planned return trip.
ReplyDeleteI am lonesome for that city.
Paris again
ReplyDelete(a jealous sigh...)
Do you need a secretary :)
Congratulations on all the publicity and recognition!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Paris!!! Now see.. Breakfast simply IS the most important meal of the day! Vive la Paris Breakfasts!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on going to Paris.
ReplyDeleteIf you happen to go to Cafe de Flore or Dolloyau, see if you can get their recipe for chocolat chaud.
I'd even pay for it.
cheers,
Stephan

ReplyDeleteJill
Oh yay I'm so excited that you are going back to Paris :) Can't wait to see all of your new photos and watercolors
ReplyDeleteWOO WOO!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU All for your very kind words.
I haven't actually seen the Artful Blogging article yet...
Constance of Rochambeau sent me scans.
BIG MERCI Constance!!!:)
Are you going to The Ham Fair??
ReplyDeleteCongrats on featuring in Artful Blogging and on France Today. Very deserving I think
The Artful Blogging article is beautiful, congratulations on that & France Today! I just love the paintings they featured, especially the sweet Valentine. Sigh...back to Paris. I'm volunteering to come along to carry all the mini luggage.
ReplyDeleteWould I be telling tales out of school by letting Barbara know
ReplyDeleteyour art actually WAS on Time's cover...way back...in another of your mini lives...?
here's to your recognitions...well deserved my friend...love the yummy breakfast art...and may i tag along with you to paris...i need a break...rebecca
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the media coverage, well done!!! Two very nice articles.
ReplyDeleteAnd off to Paris in 5 weeks time, how wonderful.... what a happy girl you must be :-)
Some New York breakfast! No bagels and lox! I begin to wonder if you really do live in New York and paint about Paris - or do you live in Paris and paint about Paris? That would make your "trip" in 5 weeks suspiciously easy.......hmmmm.
ReplyDeleteCan't believe the mag doesn't send you an advance VIP copy! Rest assured, you show to best advanatge, and you are the 2nd one in the mag! I felt like a proud mother when I opened it up and saw you there!
And why am I always last to find and read your posts? I must get a life!
JEANETTE
ReplyDeleteYou're the end of day cherry on the cake!
I have enjoyed every minute of reading your wonderful blog, and have even laughed out loud occasionally (like the small flower vase episode).I really appreciate your sense of humor.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to tell you that your obsessions have even invaded MY dreams!
Last night I dreamed that I found two miniature signs just right for teensy writing, and thought to myself, I will have to send those to Carol...
Congrats on booking your next trip to Paris--wish I could meet you there and sketch together!
Cynthia
Yeah! Paris again, whoo hoo. Enjoy and congratulations on the articles :)
ReplyDeleteI just found the blog via Artful Blogging... are you aware that it lists your site as: www.parisbreakfasts.typepad.com?
ReplyDeleteOh, merci, you are so sweat (with bacon on the side, oh my!), and besides, you are giving petit breakfasts a whole new meaning! What comes next, the "ParisBreakfasts Mini Diet", subtitled "Eat the whole thing, and still loose weight!"?
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that comment about your Paris Breakfasts Mini-diet...
ReplyDelete"You can eat the WHOLE THING!"
The more I think about it, and consider ALL the subjects you've painted, photographed, written about, and PUT OUT THERE on your blog...you've got a TREASURE TROVE of SOURCE MATERIAL, just boiling and bubbling, waiting to be taken to the NEXT STEP!
MOVE OVER MARTHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love all that you share.
ReplyDeleteLove Jeanne ^j^
hurrah, hope to see you there this time!
ReplyDeletexx L
your blog is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI wish that I could be one of your close friends, they are lucky to have you as theirs.
I've lived in Paris many years, now I live in a small town in NJ. I miss my Frenchy things...
