Bee yellow, tarte au citron map

 I decided I was not going to do a tarte au citron 🍋 map 🗺 It entailed too much citron tarte eating.

Then I found this old pastry doodle. I love drawing ✏️ round shapes.

And down the rabbit hole I went 😳 A border of pastry boxes instead of lemons 🍋 as originally planned, seemed appropriate since there are plenty of boxes floating around here at the moment. Hmmm…

Ta da ! It’s in my Etsy shop now.

I managed to catch the yellow La Poste truck Saturday just in time to get them off to you. The rest went out today 💌📮🌻

Did you know ‘Bee 🐝 Yellow’ is a big color for 2021? It will make us feel jolly, even though in the past it was used for quarantine and is still used for ‘Danger’ signs in the Metro.

Naturally I kept seeing it 🐝 everywhere immediately…along with eating too much of it.

Especially in the Marais. Have you noticed a lot of 🐝 yellow where you are?

Sunday I stalked this family with a Bee Yellow baby carriage. It even has an attached umbrella 🌂!

I easily got talked into buying a yellow sunflower in the Marais. 

They are not easy to paint…at least so far.

Can you believe the Champs-Elysées theatre group dipped a tulip into Bee yellow for their metro poster. Me neither. Crazy no?

This morning I popped into my favorite all-time bee yellow madeleine shop, Mado à Paris, at 252 rue de Rivoli. They now have citron 🍋 meringues. They‘ve always had very yummy citron 🍋 confit madeleines. I met the owner, who was in from Cannes. She said ‘Mado’ was her auntie and they use only her recipes. *Definitely stop in for tea when you come back to Paris. And if you’re missing tarte au citron🍋 you know where you can get it.  I hope you had a Happy mellow yellow 4th of July US PBers🎉🐝🐻☺️🍋
