My mum came back from Paris on Monday and brought me some Laduree macaroons - 4 whole boxes! My husband and I had our first bite after dinner, I closed my eyes and visions of paris just flooded my brain! It was so coool! It was a bit of a rush! It is now Wednesday, and we are down to 2 boxes!
Not only that, she bought me some Repetto ballet flats and a Gerard Darel hand bag! I am so in heaven right now! Any little bit of Paris will do.
I just wanted to share with you guys my sheer joy.

That is SO great kurgy - isn't it funny how some things can make all those memories and feelings come rushing back?! I can't wait to try the macarons!!!!
Oh, and happy - I remember the many discussions of the infamous sweater! Are you taking it to Paris?!

Happy - Please please please take that sweater to Paris. You'll finally have the opportunity to get good use out of it.

Happy, talking about the sweater ..... are you the one on either TA or Fodor's that bought a fabulous sweater but then was afraid to wear it anywhere? If so, I read that quite sometime ago and got a good laugh. If you can't wear something fabulously beautiful in Paris and not worry about it, where else can you wear it? ?

How fun for you - what a great surprise! (She now could bring you tacky keychains for the next ten years, and still be miles ahead in the karma dept.!)
