Did you know today is 'Blue Monday' - "the most depressing day of the year." Psychologist Cliff Arnall reasoned Blue Monday is the day when a slew of unpleasant variables such as drab weather, failing New Year's resolutions and Christmas bills collide, creating a veritable maelstrom of negativity.
So let's pretend we're in tres bleu Paris instead non?

More French in bleu. Don't you love the little 'bleu' riding hood jacket here?
Street signs are easy to find in Paris - always in bleu and plastered on corner walls. Not the case in NYC malheureusment...
