5 Things

Tricolore

1) Le drapeau tricolore. A version of it, anyway.


Paris

2) A warm spring night on the Seine. With a view.


Macaron of the month

3) The macaron of the month at Pierre Hermé.
(normally I wouldn't share photos of macarons because I really don't find them interesting, but these wildly delicious honey and meadow flower flavored ones warranted a mention!)


Paris

4) Golden light


Chèvre

5) Did I happen to mention that it was goat cheese season?

I love your "drapeau tricolore." Great find!

I wasn't that interested in "macarons" until three -- yes three -- places opened up in Rodez to sell them! They are all good and we find ourselves buying a box about every other weekend...

I really enjoy your photos! Agreed on the macarons thing. They are not my cup of tea but they can be quite beautiful. And, according to the WSJ, they are supposedly going to be "the new cupcake" (in the US). My small suburban town in WA state has a shop that sells nothing but macarons---it's called Lady Yum.

Anyway, I've been buying a lot of them recently because I've been taking them to book groups (those that have chosen my novel to read/discuss). They are one of the foods mentioned in the book…..

Merci!
I can't believe there are 3 places in Rodez. That is crazy/amazing!
I've tried a couple more at Pierre Hermé recently and I have to admit that they are amazing. Ladurée macarons are a sad, poor imitation of the real thing.

Thanks! I stopped in my tracks when I saw those doors. It was perfect.

You're very welcome, my friend. Have a good weekend!

When they are good, they are very good. When they're not...well...

I love that they put a pressed flower on each one. Such attention to detail!
