Fr. Girl's Apartment2

There seems to be a dominent propensity to line things up in rows in Paris...
I've mentioned before this obsession with lining things up in row upon row...
True, there is an inherent geometrie you can't escape in Paris thanks very much to Baron Haussmann's austere archetecture...

Granted, if you're going to sit down at most cafes the seats will probably be in a row...

But Parisien cafes do tend to line them up like soldiers facing the rue...

Even Paris dogs, whether leashed or unleashed adhere to the strict rules of promenading in rows...

I spotted these Frenchie scooters out the window coasting along in single file...

It's only natural that macarons would be lined up in neat rows...

Especially a piece montee.

You wouldn't want to mess up your rows would you?

These tubes of Jean-Paul Hevin tartiner (flavored caramel-orange-ginger!) were at the salon du chocolat and I could not resist.

Not only is the design outstanding - miam-miam

And the taste! Dangerously yummy.

This poster of row upon row also caught my eye in the Metro.

So what does any of this have to do with French Girl's appartment you ask?

I noticed a distinct propensity to lining things up in rows that I had completely missed before...

Colorful teacups lined up in rows in la cuisine - a new addition...

A row of farm buckets lined up in the bathroom.

Had French Girl been to a farm recently I wondered?

And a milk bucket hanging in the kitchen..?

I had to ask, "been farming of late peut-etre Fr. Girl?"

"Non, I just liked the way they look..."

"Oh..."

Lovely glass apothecary jars in the sale du bain...

Bottles of parfume...

Carneval masks of Limoux in the hallway...

An adorable heart hangs on French Girl's door...
I will be very busy hanging my exhibit this morning at the Alliance Francaise de Philadelphie once I hightail it out of here.

Perhaps that's why I have row upon rows on ze brain today.

I hope to see PBers tonight at the opening (6:30-8:30)

And I hope French Girl doesn't mind this discrete petite invasion into her private lair - too adorable to miss non?

BON WEEK-END PBers!
