Les Sapins de Noel Paris
I saw all these
sapins de Noel(Christmas trees) yesterday in Paris.
A listing lit tree in
Herme's window.
Chocolatier Patrick Roger's snowy chocolate
sapin at
Place Saint-Sulpice. Perhaps the same price (75 euros) as a real pine tree but no forest was harmed and completely recyclable...
On
rue de Seine, Gerard Mulot's golden-wrapped
marron glace sapin.
His shop is always a don't-miss in Paris.
And his stub-your-toe, it's so real, chocolate log (
buche de noel) has to be a winner no?
Mad hatter Marie Mercie on
23, rue Saint-Sulpice 75006, has an adorable
sapin full of her inventive
chapeaux(hats).
Across the street a leather Xmas tree...
Little fold-out paper trees in a kiddies shop on
rue Mabillon.
Alternative trees in a
fleurist on rue des Courcelles.
Everything you could possible dream of...
Real
sapin too by the way.
I fell hard for the Santa rat but
Bear back home said
NON!
Look!
Sapin-green
gelato!
In 3-day old new gelato shop,
IL GELATO DEL MARCHESE 3, rue des Quatre Vents 75006 I discovered yesterday. I ordered
nocciola(hazelnut) and an espresso. When they weren't looking I popped some gelato into my espresso. YUM.
They offered me a complimentary
Mandarin gelato which did taste just
like the REAL thing.
Molto elegante inside. They are from Roma and I wish them
molto fortuna.
I wish you all
Molta Fortuna, Bonne Chance and HAPPY HOLIDAYS PBers!!
Thank you so much for all your visits and kind comments in 2014 :)
