Colorful Salts and Spices (in French)

More Macarons - It's been a while.

I can't wait to go splurge on macarons again, take a bunch of photos of them, and then eat them all. I can't eat them in California. I haven't found any that compare, though I haven't actually looked very hard. I just figure I won't, seeing as how I only really like them from a couple of places in Paris.

French Pâtisserie Window Shopping

Much too pretty to eat.

Almost like a macaron rainbow....

If you've never been to Place de la Madeleine, there are lots of famous, French, gourmet food stores there. Personally, I prefer the food to beauty products. Macarons are my main beauty expenditure - they make me glow with happiness. :)

If you also prefer macarons to nail polish, check out this photo I took: www.etsy.com/listing/72611884/macaron-rainbow

Wild French Dessert Chase

Also in my Etsy shop, here.

I'm trying really hard with the food photography here... My last apartment in Paris had the perfect set-up to photograph these in. Now that I'm home, I don't know where I would do it... Or what I would photograph for that matter.... Tacos? I like tacos.

Fattening Up in Schorndorf

Yeah... obviously these aren't "Pictures from Paris", but oh well.


This building had a pigeon coop in the attic. Mmm... squab. (No, not really.)


Apfelstrudel at the konditorei, right after breakfast.










And then on to an amazing home-cooked lunch with Willie and Annie at Hotel Gruber. Oh my gosh, their cooking is amazing! I think this was the best meal I have ever had in Germany.
