I have taken a great liking to macaroons and meringue. I think these sugary delights are what I will miss the most (should I ever leave).
Today I had un sandwich du pays. It was the first time I have eaten (and sort of enjoyed) pickles. First tomatoes and electro-rock, then olives and techno, and now pickles and Prince. Who am I?

Salut Katie,
You should go to the Pierre Hermé shop on the rue Bonaparte or the rue de Vaugirard (n°185). Believe me, you'll find there the best macarons in town.
Hey ! This is so funny I have to write another comment ! I read your blog and found the post about the Bonnie Prince Billy show. I was behind you in the queue and witnessed the whole scene and the conversation about France and ist political system... and it was a very good concert indeed. OK, I have to stop writting comment (there's another on the Billy post). Have a nice week-end
Who are you? Clearly more than you had thought.
I am a just a cowboy, baby, and did not meant more than I wrote.
