More Christmas in Paris

I ventured up to the Marais on Sunday. The streets were teaming with CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS. No one else was hibernating evidently.

Major 'leché vitrine'/window licking at chocolatier A LA MERE DE FAMILLE.

Inside staff were wearing sequined antlers.

A sparkly window at chocolatier JADIS ET GOURMANDE, rue des Archives.

Finally I wended my way to BHV, on rue de Rivoli looking super sparkly.

Little Bo Peep in pink was trying to pet the Alsacian reindeer.

BHV has wooden chalets out front selling classic ALSACIAN honey pain d'epice. And another for gingerbread fans minus the honey. You can get foie gras on toast points as well.

Across the street its snowing on Hotel de Ville.

The Marchę de Noël in front has vin chaude/hot spiced wine 4 ways - blanc, rouge, punch and OJ for tea-totalers. I got a pretty good hotdog from another log cabin. Last but not least TWO merry-go-rounds and enough kiddies to keep both turning all night. Stay tuned - next stop rue Saint-Honoré.Thank you for reading PB. Gift yourself and friends Parisbreakfast letters, maps and watercolors in my Etsy shop. Xxx❤️Bear 🐻 is done hibernating.
