I’m back again! Even though I haven’t written it doesn’t mean that my French obsession has seized. I just started to read, Paris My Sweet, by Amy Thomas. She also has a blog called, God, I Love Paris. What French inspired book are you reading? Or have enjoyed reading?
Happy New Year!!!
Hope 2012 brings all good things! Hope it brings a trip to Paris too 😉
I haven’t written for a long time but I’m still here. I’m always looking for all things French I just took a break.
I’m still very much inspired by all things French and hope to one day speak it. Until next time…

As I was Surfing the Net at work I came across this article about not sounding dumb or pretentious while ordering at a French Restaurant. If you’re at work with nothing to do or a bunch of work but really bored, click here for the article.
At The Paris Theater in NYC
THE WOMEN ON THE 6TH FLOOR…Paris, 1960. Jean-Louis (Fabrice Luchini, Potiche) lives a bourgeois existence absorbed in his work, cohabitating peacefully with his neurotic socialite wife Suzanne (Sandrine Kiberlain, Mademoiselle Chambon) while their children are away at boarding school. The couple’s world is turned upside-down when they hire a Spanish maid María (Natalia Verbeke). Through María, Jean-Louis is introduced to an alternative reality just a few floors up on the building’s sixth floor, the servants’ quarters. He befriends a group of sassy Spanish maids (Pedro Almodóvar regular Carmen Maura, Lola Dueñas, Berta Ojea, Nuria Solé, Concha Galán), refugees of the Franco regime, who teach him there’s more to life than stocks and bonds, and whose influence on the house will ultimately transform everyone’s life. In French and Spanish, with English subtitles.
Sounds very interesting. Can’t wait to see it 🙂
For the last few night I’ve been trying to stay up late enough and watch, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Why? Because he’s been in Paris all week 🙂

Museums in the City of Paris, France
Perfumer Lubin has recreated Marie Antoinette’s fragrance of preference, according to Vogue. A blend of rose, jasmine and bergamot, the scent was created by Jean-Louis Fargeon, “originally conceived as an ode to her beloved Trianon gardens at Versailles.” The fragrance, called Black Jade, is being sold for $130 at New York’s Aedes de Venustas and online at aedes.com.
I’ll have to find out where this place is so I can get a whiff 😉
Correction, its cost is now $160!
