A HOT CHRISTMAS

My dear sweet home of Perth has just experienced one of its hottest Christmas Days on record with the days that have followed being extremely hot as well.

A lot of people head to the beach on Christmas Day - it's a tradition to some...but give me french rain any day.

We are experiencing a heat wave my friends and where would I rather be, yes you guessed right, kicking my heels up in the cool breeze of Paris would be just grand.

I am writing this post on Saturday evening, 29 December 2012 and at 11pm it is currently 28.8c degrees with forecasts for Sunday at 40c, Monday (New Years Eve) at 40c, Tuesday (New Years Day) 39c and so on.  I can see how the rest of the world has trouble relating to us - we are definitely the sunburnt country.

Yes I Would

 

Of course, right now this is where I would love to be.

How about you?

Pretty In Pink

 I would love to own the above keepsake box to keep my Paris dreams in.

And while I'm dreaming I could use the coasters below to rest my wine glass on.

Are they too pink for you?

What A Doll

 What little girl wouldn't love a dress up doll like this.

 In fact I would love a dress up doll like this.

I love people who are so creative and talented to make such wonderful things.  

What wonderful thing can you make, do tell?

Time Waits For No-one

Why is it that the week-end goes so fast and before we know it we have to think about going back to work. The upside is working allows us to save for holidays - and hopefully my next one will be in paris, sil vous plait!

Sunday in Paris

Markets are such a vibrant part of city life in Paris and a lazy Sunday strolling through one is a perfect way to end the weekend, oui?  Hey I might just see you there one day.

Weekend Is Here

 The weekend has finally arrived.  Weather is looking mighty fine.  Whether you are in Paris or Perth, the only thing that really counts is that you are wearing a smile.  Enjoy yourself won't you!

Rue de la Huchette

This little street is where I lived for the month of October in 2009.  The plan is to go again next year but this time for twice that long.  Now which street will I live in on my return.  Any ideas on where best to stay this time round?


 

Feeling Hungry

Two of my favourite pastries.
If you could only pick one, which one would you choose?

I Prefer Shopping, Merci

C'est la rentrée! Which means it's back to school, work and the everyday rhythm after France has been on holiday for the past two months.  Hmmm!!! I think that I would rather still be on holiday and enjoying the shopping, wouldn't you.
