A Paris cafe story today just because... 
Aussie Bess dropped into a Paris cafe...
Have you seen these new cafe tables with adverts for Pepsi etc. Love em or hate em?
My kind of cafe table...
If it ain't broke, why change it?
Square cafe tables...
I love these tables...miam
I rarely sit down in a cafe unless I'm meeting someone...
I love to shoot a quiet moment at a cafe as I'm breezing by enroute to somewhere else.
I browse cafes rather than sit in them. Who has the time?
You know that your coffee will be much cheaper if you stand up at the bar or le zinc... You're paying rent when you sit down at a table don't forget. At least they don't charge you more when you sit by the window...
Yadda-yadda-yadda - a cafe is like an after hours party. Yackity-yack. Doesn't matter if a trillion people are passing by.
No one is distracted from their intense conversations...
Oooops caught in the act... 
Do you have a favorite cafe you hang out at for hours?
BONNE JOURNEE!

I've always loved the smell of coffee. When I lived on 13th street, my next door neighbor's morning coffee would waft through the wall and wake me up like the best alarm clock.
And I've always loved coffee ice cream, even if it keeps me up till 3AM. But last Paris trip I learned to love coffee every which way. I tasted this "flight" of different expressos...
When I visited the coffee factory outside Paris. And I got to experience every step of the coffee roasting process. These resident antique coffee mills are no longer in use 
Talk about heady coffee aromas - There is nothing like marching through a coffee roasting factory for a wake-up call. Roasting transforms the green beans into a product that can be brewed and unlocks at least 700 aromatic elements!
A wide range of carefully selected beans are blended just like wine or chocolate.
Freshly roasted coffee is sent out every morning to Paris' cafes and restaurantsin these sweet little trucks... guess who's wearing the white coat and hat?
And lands on your Paris cafe table ready to wake you up! Just enhale...YUM!
Have you had coffee at Les Deux Magots, Angelina, Cafe de Flore, Bhudda Bar, La Tour d'Argent, Le Dome, La Coupole, Le Jules Verne Tour Eiffel, you've been drinking Cafes Richard coffee.Friday, June 22, 2007
Cafe day today! And I'm sick of looking at desserts I can't have...
There are lots of little chatchkas you can bring home.Cafe stuff for sale at the cafes...
You'll find these signature souvenirs only at posh cafes like Flore and Deux Magots..
Not the same as being there...But you can have your own little make believe cafe in your own kitchen
I've got a cafe table and chairs in mine...
A few French sugar cubes, a cafe cup or two and a glass...Your bottle of Vittel and you're set up!
Wait! You need the aroma of French roast coffee too...
And nothing like a bit of cafe music playing in the background...Who knew Cafe de Flore has their own music CDs?
They've kindly thought of everything for your make believe cafe recreation..
One thing I wish I'd bought...A Cafe Flore key chain as a reminder of where I'd like to be,
as I go out the door to the real world...
Here the cafe boutique where you can get your cafe gear.26, rue Saint-Benoit, 75006
Just don't go before noon
CLOSED!
Do you have any cafe souvenirs in your kitchen?
