I Miss U all my Blog: La Grande Epicerie

You might think, being an artist I go to museums in Paris.

You'd be wrong.

I go to La Grande Epicerie De Paris for my eye candy.

I'm stalking the Yuzu Mania gateaux ever since I noticed it in the Paris Patisseries:History Shops Recipes book.

I can't get it out of my head.

This big mouth is all too appropriate in the vitrine of La Grande Epicerie...

Anyone sporting a red coat is game for me to follow...

There's a lot to see in La Grande Epicerie - soooo many works of art.

Et voila - red coat again...

Chasing down some fruits rouge no doubt...

Whatever does one do with strawberry/fraise-flavored sucre/sugar?

Do tell if you know...

More bottles of mysterious ingredients - blue guimauve-flavored stuff...

I never got up the nerve to ask what they are...

At last a study in red I can understand...

So many choices of bread - how does anyone decide?

I can not.

I just browse.

Lovely shell-shaped madeleines...

And of course they have macarons in 20 flavors/parfums!

Who would not be contented as a chat/cat hanging out in La Grande Epicerie?

BONJOUR LA GRANDE EPICERIE!
