It's so easy to fall for the wrong guy isn't it? Who knew there could be so much heart break over a chicken timer?

When I let my secret passion out of the bag, PBer 'Switchboard' of Baltimore felt obliged to help me out. She insisted on sending Monsieur Chicken no matter what.
I received updates,
"the chicken has flown the coop".
Unfortunately M. Chicken did not work/ne march pas upon arrival. We won't go into the gory details. Switchboard was beside herself with grief. "I'm a little worried about the chicken" she wrote.

My First macaron
Low and behold another smaller chicken was sent et VOILA!
This one works perfectly.

I seem to have a thing for birds along with paintboxes and bears. Sadly I left quite a few behind when I made the big move to Paris.
But Yellow Bird, has always been 'Top Dog' among les oiseaux so he made the grade even though he now has a broken left foot.
This classy guy has had many a fine petit dejeuner etc.

Framboise macaron
He's quite fond of macarons too even though his origins are questionable.
On Sunday I happened to pop into Saveurs d'Alsace and there in the window a blue bird caught my eye.
The other birds are not best pleased and raising a squawk, but what's a girl to do?
Today is the 1st day of the SOLDES/Summer sales in Paris. Everyone is out with their giant shopping bags knocking people over. Ho hum. Must go feed the birds.
