You take one near-perfect picture of it and make a mental note;
I must come back here and go inside!
But WHERE was it?
That's what I'm wondering about this adorable pile of macarons
I saw the first day last time in Paris...
I thought the little window sign at the bottom would be a logo clue..

But no, it's just a symbol for some French Pastry association...
Objective #1: Find this place again!

But when I look, I see yummy handwriting like any French kid can do.
What I wouldn't give to be able to write like this...

But I passed by so quickly, I didn't get the street address, the name, nuttin'
I know it's somewhere around Lafayette Gourmet...
I don't care what the food is like.
I just want to eat in a place surrounded by ardoise /
Objective #2: Find it!
*Update: I found it. Procrastination will get you everywhere.
COJEAN is across the street at 66

This is an easy one - at least I know where it is!
7-9, rue de Buci Paris, 75006

I've not been back to the Tour Eiffel since MY FIRST TRIP TO EUROPE,
when you have no choice about visiting national monuments.
But this trip I think I should get a little bit closer than this shot..
What do you think?

This mystery window is on rue de Seine I think...
I'm going to go look for it.

I got a quick shot even though the vendeuse was wagging her finger at me.
I know it was on rue Bonaparte, down a bit from Pierre Herme.
I wish I'd gone inside and bought these..
Especially since I took this picture 2 years ago!
So this mystery underwear is long gone :(
Is there something you missed out on from a previous trip
that you'd like to go back and do?

I KNOW I will get to visit often with my adorable cousin K. in Pigalle.
I hope we go back to Rose Bakery and that I remember to take pictures...
I hope she lets me pay this time...

I always rent an apartment in a part of the city I've not rented in before.
First morning I scout the neighborhood,
get my first "flavor" of it,
find a nice place for a latte and a pastry,
then sit and enjoy.
Objective #3:
I think these mystery chairs in the Jardin Luxumbourg
would like me to stop
and sit down and enjoy...
