We're out walking again - this time Place de Opera...
The Paris Opera is just as yummy as a piece of cake... 
And in fact it is a piece of cake.Dalloyau celebrated this cakes birthday last year...
Multi-layered, coffee buttercream-filled, Kahlua-soaked... 
OPERA CAKE!!!
The Monuments of Paris: an illustrated guide by Michel Poisson is a great cource if you like to pour over the details and history of the all the Paris monuments and architecture - 464 pages of details and maps. If only it were lighter so you could bring it along...C'est la vie
BONJOUR OPERA!
BONJOUR OPERA!

ReplyDeleteAlways a delight.
ReplyDeleteHave fun in Paris--wish I was there too.
Best,

The perfect combination of parisian buildings + watercolour (apart from a visit to Paris Breakfasts, that is :-) is the Paris' sketchbook by Fabrice Moireau.
ReplyDeleteThe pastry shots are delicious :) I love the color of the light in the display case!
ReplyDeleteSuch glorious pictures and yummy looking food!

another charmer, Carol.
ReplyDeleteWould rather be there today than here (working).
ReplyDeleteParisians do have a way with scarfs.
aww, perfection!
ReplyDeleteI wanna go again!
Have you seen the site with the doors of Paris?
ReplyDeleteWalk down St. Julien de Pauve from the Seine and look to your right above some of the doors. You'll see a scallop shell.
That indicates the dwellers within have made the pilgrimage to San Juan de Compostela.
You probably knew this.

I'm sure this has already been suggested...how about putting all your new paintings into a "coffee table" book. I'd love to see them altogether. I think it would be a best seller!
ReplyDeleteI love this painting Carol! Are you using a different style of painting or type of paints? I've loved everything you've done, but your recent paintings look different somehow. At least to my untrained eyes. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteOh and I love the widgets that you find for your blog. I've been adding the same ones! ; )
Ooooh! I love the Palais Garnier! I have been over from England a number of times to see the Paris Opéra Ballet.
ReplyDeletelove love love the Paris views paintings. My 16 year old daughter will be in Paris next week - same time as you - see reads your blog too - I told her to look out for a lady taking pictures of pastries! Have a wonderful trip.
ReplyDeleteNothing better than having a hot chocolat in the cafe opposite the Opera and people watching as you sip.
