Les Fleurs.

Chocolate Bunny with DaffodilsChocolate Bunny, watercolor,
We've had a tiny sniff of SPRING last week for 2 WHOLE days in New York City...sigh Shop doors were wide open. People were walking around WITHOUT their jackets.
Watercolor study for the Russian Tea Room Easter menuWhile everyone else was stripping for Spring, I was indoors painting daffodils and chocolate bunnies.

Faberge Eggs at The Russian Tea Room Oh and Faberge eggs for THE RUSSIAN TEA ROOM!
They have a beautiful collection by the way.

Easter menu for The Russian Tea Room Remember when I wrote about eating Thanksgiving dinner at RTR last November. Well, they "discovered" my story. So while I obsessed on Fauchon last week at Paris Breakfasts, I was secretly rushing to finish menu art for them: Easter, Valentine's Day and Tea Salon menus.

Bunny pillows at Les Fleurs Boutique in ParisThe cold weather has come back and made us put our hats, coats, mufflers and gloves back on, but I'm sticking with my bunnies and daffodils! I found these bunnies at Les Fleurs, 3 Passage de la bonne Graine 75011. I'm going back to Paris end of March
Thank you PBers for buying my watercolors :)
I want to see all the Easter/chocolate shenannigans and I'm going to visit Les Fleurs too.

French chocolate Sardines from the Bonbon confiserie
Evidently chocolate fish are very BIG for French Pacques / Easter and I want to know why..? It's all strictly for research mind you.
