Yes you read right. I was running to buy stamps as usual and noticed Printemps still had up their Christmas windows!
A new cafe Laperouse in Printemps decorated toute en bleu.
Isn’t it lovely? I’m a busy elf myself doing Galette des rois research for the January map.
When I got home there was a porcelain fève/charm inside the galette! This just never happens!!
A Big merci to the Galette des Rois gods 🙏 I really needed another mini feve to add to my collection…hmm. More galette drawings coming soon on Etsy.

Wow, Carol, you scored big time with a crown & feve and all those wonderful windows. It's never too late to look at Christmas shop windows & today is the 12th Day of Christmas so it's appropriate they are still up. Now it's time to take down my Christmas trees. I love those feves.
ReplyDeleteC'etait trés charmante ta histoire. Merci beaucoup. Moi, j'amerrirais gagner une fête quelque jour.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
In these troubled times you light & pick us up. Always a joy.❤️
ReplyDeleteYes never too late for beautiful Christmas window displays- thank you. Congrats on scoring PR extras at the cafe too.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it’s never too late for beautifully decorated Paris holiday windows! And an individual galette des rois with a fève?? Wow! It was your lucky day. You have a wonderful fève collection, Carol.
ReplyDeleteThere is a Café Laperouse at the newly renovated Hotel de la Marine. I didn’t know they had more locations…marvelous! Enjoy wearing that crown, Carol!
Lovely pictures and sketches! I bought a few Faves at marche du puces two years ago - they are fun to search for!
ReplyDeleteOh, Carol! Those feves are just wonderful! You were so lucky! And it is never EVER too late to show me magical Christmas windows, either. These are especially appealing to me! I'm glad you were in the right place at the right time.
ReplyDeleteIt's NEVER TOO LATE for wonderful Christmas windows. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteOh hurray 🤸♂️🤸♂️🤸♂️
ReplyDeleteSo glad you don’t mind a last shot of Christmas :))
I wish I’d shot at night with no reflections

Oh.how fun!! Lucky you Carol!! Bonne Annee 💖✨🎉🥂🎶🍾
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the fun we always had on Le Jour des Rois with French students....we'd have a galette (a student's brother was a chef) and bury a
ReplyDeletefève in it, and have a paper gold crown made for the winner, who was supposed to host the following year's party.
I miss teaching....
Holidays end when we choose? Today is feast of Epiphany!
ReplyDeleteAnother close to The Season
So, merci for your holiday extention....much appreciated.
