La Poste Croissant ๐Ÿฅ Stamp Letter

 I’m Giving Thanks today because I finished ✔️ the Paris Letter ๐Ÿ’Œ

Was it Kirra who asked if I would be doing a croissant ๐Ÿฅ stamp Paris letter?
I was on the elevator going to go make prints. I took another look ๐Ÿ‘️ It needed something ๐Ÿค” Back I went and added a red & blue Air-Mail border all the way around.
Plus more croissants ๐Ÿฅ maybe too many?
I know many of you are focused on turkey ๐Ÿฆƒ and Cranberry sauce
Which is harder to find in Paris then hen’s teeth ๐Ÿฆท especially since Marks & Spencer’s closed up because of Brexit ๐Ÿ˜ญ
Marks & Sparks even had delish ‘canneberge’ sandwiches ๐Ÿฅช 
Remembrances of things past…๐Ÿ˜ญ
Maison de l’Isabelle
Anyhoo, last week 
I was mostly 
Running, ๐Ÿƒ‍♂️ 
Cafรฉ Pierre Hermรจ 
Around Paris
Doing 
Mille et Un Patisserie
Croissant ๐Ÿฅ ๐Ÿฅ
Research ๐Ÿ”ฌ

Don’t these look like Trader Joe’s ‘Everything But the Bagel’ Seasoning?
Mille et Un boulangerie, who placed #3 in this year’s annual croissant ๐Ÿฅ competition, is well worth a visit at 32, rue Saint Placide.
Their matcha Madeleines are exquisite ๐Ÿ‘Œ …I got distracted from my ๐Ÿฅ mission.
There are so many tempting variations on a theme in Paris including savory ๐Ÿฅ from Frappรฉ Boulangerie at 7 rue Sedaine.
I had to look at and sketch ✍️ too many gorgeous croissants ๐Ÿฅ
Not the walk in the park you might imagine.
How many croissants ๐Ÿฅ can you eat in one day?
It is pretty amazing how these big puffy, laminated hunks of gold come from this tiny roll of butter and flour.
A basket of croissants ๐Ÿฅ 
A basket of cat at the cat cafe nearby.
I’m running back to the printer(he was not in earlier).
Have a grand THANKSGIVING ❤️
Back in a thrice.

    Well, I must purchase this Paris letter, because I ate multiple croissants at La Maison d'Isabelle in September. Miam. Miam.
