As we were out viewing the windows around the Madeleine...
I heard a great sniff come from French Girl... 
A great HMPH regarding the invasion of Easter bunnies in Fauchon's windows... 
I was informed that traditionally the French only have chocolate church bells, chickens and eggs for Easter.
That the bunny is a trendy interloper... 
Perhaps like the wretched Cane Toad that invaded Australia..? 
Here you can see the very French traditional chocolate church bell... 
For some unknown reason I can't figure out the French are deeply enamoured with the stupidest looking chickens! 
Honestly, does this look like a savvy chicken with je ne sais quoi to you? I think not. 
At least Fauchon is keeping a low profile with their chickens - not quite so ridiculous in my humble opinion. There will be more on the dumb French chicken/poule demain/tormorrow. Prepare to be shocked. 
The almighty PIERRE HERME has seen fit to include a BUNNY in his Easter/Paques collection, so TAKE THAT French Girl! HMPH indeed. 
Anyway bunnies are famous for proliferating madly so why fight it? The bunny has become like the cupcake in Paris - A fact of life. 
In this window you see the bunny and the chicken duking it out with the kingly egg on top. Frankly I think it's a losing battle and some fiercely traditional Frenchies would do best to just accept the influx of the trendie Bunny. That's all there is to it.~
BONJOUR PARIS BUNNIES!
