things I like lately - Paris edition



iPhone VSCO Cam
- the glorious warm and sunny weather - people watching - well dressed, stylish children and their parents - a family driving scooters (mum and dad on a scooter each, with a daughter on each scooter) - people using public bikes - Parisians' parking skills - they are kings and queens of parallel parking! - Ladurée and Pierre Hermé macarons - fresh croissants with butter and jam for breakfast - outside in the sun! - window shopping - ladies and gentlemen wearing hats - a woman painting in a little book in front of Monet's Water Lilies in Musée de l'Orangerie - buying Bonne Maman jams to bring home - Champagne galore - the way "champagne" is pronounced in French - being called "madame" by the hotel staff - the Eiffel Tower in sunset - seeing how much my husband and friends enjoy French foods like foie gras, snails, frog legs, oysters and beef tartar. I too love food, but these things - not so much - the view of Sacré-Cœur from the top of Centre Pompidou - walking along the Seine - dining at Allard - the decor of classic bistros and brasseries - yoghurt in glas jars - the art nouveau details of hotel Regina - exploring the Les Puces de Saint-Ouen flea market - treating ourselves to antique Champagne glasses at said market - blooming magnolia trees in Jardin des Tuileries - a little picnic of Champagne, macarons and olives in said park - stumbling upon the Aesop store and finally getting a chance to try their products (I have not yet seen them in Norway) - the beauty of it all
