Who says there isn't plenty of turkey in Paris?
Just try Le Bon Marché's l'arbre Noel shop on the 2nd floor. Only 15€. A steal for one of these babies.
Most Parisians will be timing their turk-turks with a macaron kitchen timer c/o Monoprix 4,90€
And what will he/she be wearing dans la cusine? Maybe this.
Or this (Mrs. Perfect at the oven).
Much better to walk. The weather's fine.
There are plenty of pumpkins in Paris. Not to worry.
Want to have your turkey out? I saw this at a restaurant over the bridge.
A witty Bûche de Noël of lit candles and red Christmas balls called 'Éclat de Lumiere'. (Yes, that's a peonie petal lampshade in Fauchon's signature hot pink).
Inside: passion fruit, mango, white chocolate, creamy milk chocolate mousse, Tahitian vanilla with a caramel and passion fruit lollipop, make for a light, slightly acidic palate cleanser to a heavy meal be it Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.
Naturally there was Fauchon bubbly served inside the bulle. Fauchon will do desserts for Afternoon tea in the bulle. I hope to try them.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING PBers !
CHEERS Carolg

Happy Thanksgiving to you, Carol. Love the idea of having bubbles in le boule and afternoon tea. Sounds like the perfect medicine for this time of year!

Happy Thanksgiving Carol. Having Tea in the "Bulle" looks amazing. I will be looking for the timer, also. Have a good one.
ReplyDeleteP.S. The Novembre sketch letter. I love the color on the walls. It almost glows. However, I recognize three of the people - Hepburn, Chanel, and Proust. Who are the others? This one is my favorite. Thanks
ReplyDeleteHappy Day of Thanksgiving, Carol. I must add tea in the "Bulle" to my list for my next Paris visit. Fauchon is always on my list. Feeling full of gratitude for receiving Paris Breakfast posts in my in-box. I eagerly await each new post for a taste of Paris. And now I eagerly await what will soon be in my mailbox on the front porch.
