Paris Grey Report

Rain, rain, rain...

It's been non-stop rain here in New York for about 3 days.

It rained every single day I was in Paris - OK it drizzled, which is different than a New York downpour. I did not take an umbrella with me either.

I did wear a raincoat non-stop.

My dream house is this tiny grey guard house outside the Musee de Sevres...
The windows were again full of grey/gris this Fall....
Toute en gris... 

A giant grey scarf.

Smile! I use my copious scarf to hide my camera not reveal it.
Karl Lagerfeld came out with this charcole grey perfume called KAPSULE in a square bottle...Hmmm 

All food was grey before color printing came along...
Real grey-colored food. I still don't know what flavor macarons these are but does it matter? So that's the Grey report from Paris.
BON WEEK-END!

Il Fait Froid!

Pieplate said yesterday...We'll be in Paris in quinze jours, and we're hoping that the temperatures will be up a bit.

What's the weather report on the ground?

When you start learning French,

one of the first sentences you learn is,

"La plume de ma tante est sur la table..."

Well long ago it used to be so.

Then you learned how to say,

"Il fait beau" The weather is fine. This trip in Paris, il fait FROID! Il pluie! ! ! B E A U C O U P ! It also used to be that starving artists in Paris... (something I can't claim to be for sure) Would now and then throw themselves out the windows of their unheated garrets... (something I'm not about to do for sure!) But I surely wish I'd brought my long johns (if I had any...) La Louvre is nicely heated by the way.. Inside anyway... Mustn't grumble about Paris grey skies... After all I AM in Paris. Now repeat after me: "La plume de ma tante est sur la table."
