I would stop there after my french class at FIAF on Saturday's and buy a sandwich, a few macaroons, some chocolat , etc. This past Saturday I was shocked to find them closing on Sunday. I stocked up on some items, OK a very heavy shopping bag full of goodies, and actually went back Sunday for more. I hope they find a new location very soon. <BR/>I love your watercolours and your blog. It's nice to know someone who shares the same passion for Paris.<BR/>R.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-81859573010168583112007-02-27T09:43:00.000-05:002007-02-27T09:43:00.000-05:00My Condolences Paris Breakfast! what now?

I have some experience with the Viennese variety though: They are as light as meringues, if not lighter, they melt on the tongue like "seafoam" candy (also called divinity in some parts), leaving you with a very intense taste sensation. So far I have tasted pistaccio and hazelnut, they were divine. <BR/>Wishing you one of those round encounters of the divine kind in the near future, from Vienna,<BR/>MerisiMerisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-10297710231623982772007-02-26T10:25:00.000-05:002007-02-26T10:25:00.000-05:00Oh, poor Carol, you must be heartbroken, I sympath...Oh, poor Carol, you must be heartbroken, I sympathize with you.

They don't look like they would taste like a heavy MACROON. The spelling being different.. ARE they something different?
