In the insane heat 🔥 I went running 

Over to meet SOLLI.

Their big cake was in the hot summer color - pale lemon 🍋 yellow…more to come on that.

            Gratis Mini chocolate cakes 

Were delicious 😋 

Marshmallows/guimauve, an essential at any birthday 🎉 celebration. 

As are fruity jells

There was a raffle 

Everyone won a prize who could wait patiently online. I won truffle chips. One of my favorite things. 

If you ever get the chance to visit a truffle marché, do not pass it up! 

Another tasting. 

I was too late for blueberries 🫐 & fraises 🍓

Saturday shoppers at Grand Épicerie 

Can be dependent upon for dressing well, even the ice cream 🍦 eaters 

And bike 🚲 riders. 

SOLLI got her cute blue-checked fan/éventail in Bon Marché (fortunately it was gone when I went looking 👀). 

I was shooting 📸 fashionable ‘backs’ in Bon Marché 

Security 👮 stopped me. 

“I’m only shooting backs,”I said in my defense.

”I know,” she said,“Why?” 

“I’m an artist and I’m going to draw ✍️ them. Do you want to see my sketchbook?” “No, she said and went off, keeping a watchful eye 👁️ on me. 

Occasionally being an artist 👩‍🎨 can save you from arrest, detention or worse.

As for HOT Lemon 🍋 Yellow 

Princess Anne was seen wearing it.

Monoprix has Lemon 🍋 yellow jellie shoes.

My pool 🏊 which I’ve been visiting to cool my brain 🧠 has lemon walls.

Looking very Edward Hopper non?
