Paris Update #2

Got lots more pictures for you, we’ve had a nice and relaxed few days…

What's hilarious about this is the sculptures are made of metal, and they were moving/bouncing

The sculptures were 'moving' while I stood there

Sometimes you just come around a corner and it's there...

food goes round and round

the sushi goes round and round; you pick what you want

That’s it for now. Today is our 2nd wedding anniversary :) And we’re going to spend the afternoon shopping for food treats to make up a Paris Gift Basket for a contest coming up. Stay tuned. This food basket could be yours!

All best,

Update from Paris

Yes, it’s really true. This blog is being posted from Paris, France :) I snuck out of town on Friday, and I’ll be working from here for a month. This is the second year we’ve spent the month of September in Paris, and it’s truly an amazing place. Last year we arrived with this long list of things to do, and left with an even longer list. So we just had to return again.

As far as my work goes, things will be business as usual while I’m here. Well, except for the fact that in the mornings here (while you’re still sleeping), I’ll be out scouting around, riding the metro, finding great food and recipes and stories, and I’ll be taking pictures and meeting new people and drinking red wine (well, that should probably wait until ‘after’ dinner).

I’ll be posting photos regularly here on the blog, so you can bookmark this page if you like.

I won’t bother you with emails every time I post new pictures; you can just check back here occasionally to see what’s new.

All best,
Shelley
