Carol, Loving the posts. I was behind a day so just to catch up... books, bread, balcony and today birds? OK good. Sounds absolutely wonderful. Can't wait to see what you are going to paint from this trip. Enjoy it all... ~Jen

ReplyDeleteWho needs Pinterest when we have this?
Love yr combinations.
It's birds season :-)
ReplyDeleteI loooove it !
Plus, I loveeee easter, so much chocolat to try!
I am waiting (im)patiently for the report on Jour du Macaron... I hope that you and Jill are rounding the last PH pâtisserie as I am typing this! They have cut back from 3 macarons at each stop to one? Quelle horreur! Please tell me they are still giving a box of 35 for making it to all the shops.
ReplyDeleteWish I was there with you two and Bear!
Bises,
Genie

ReplyDeleteI hope you bought a deliciously colorful cardigan! And why don't they make those flowered little slippers in grown-up girl sizes????
ReplyDeleteLove the sweet little birds--and glad to hear you have birdsong there, too. It's that time, here, when they're all cannoodling...
ReplyDeleteGenius!!! Love all the Spring-iness. I'm always saying "put a bird on it" and usually nobody knows what I'm talking about!
ReplyDelete2 sets of goatie kids just 3 & 4 days old are sure sign of spring here, Carol! And little fluffy chicks any day now! Your bright cherry post today lightened my spirits after just getting in from battening down the barn for the deluge that has us in flood watch. Look forward to Macaron Day report too!
ReplyDeleteI want some real fluffy little yellow chicks. My wife won't let me get any. She's no fun! I guess I'll have to settle for some chocolate ones.
ReplyDeleteThere's always divorce Bill
Deleteor you could, alternatively, go in the back yard and eat worms as we used to say...ahem
Happy Spring from Portland!

I am looking forward to a time when Portlandia visits one of the great purveyors of Macarons .Then they really should visit Paris and and Put a Bird On IT!!! Oh, the possibilities you have stirred up.I am loving your trip to Paris posts. Merci, fan from rural Oregon
ReplyDeleteHey I've got a questions for you? How do you say:
ReplyDelete"Put a bird on it"
in French.....Why do you ask? Well, I entered an Art Call for ten artists, to get ten items and to turn it into art in ten days. I want to title it....you guessed it....
"Put a bird on it"
However, I'm not French. You are the first thing that popped up on Google. Can you help?
