Paris Pumpkin

Le(la) BOO!
I don't know what gender 'Boo' is but certainement you'll see signs of Halloween in many classy joints around town...
La Petite Marquise (3 Pl. Victor Hugo 75016) had several tres chic witches dans le vitrine in full regalia...

Sweet Paris said I must taste her fav, la feuille d'automne so I did...

Trop de creme pour moi malheureusement/way too much cream for me. I discovered the secret of tarte citron meringuee. Often it's just a tarte citron with a dollop of toasted meringue adorning the curd. Who knew?


Do stop by Sweet Paris if you want to see what pricy Halloween shenanigans Patrick Roger is up to.

Is it only the French who can get away with putting a knitted pumpkin plus a knitted aubergine into a window on rue St.-Honore to display fancy watches? Knitting is very in. This ain't happening on Madison Ave., NYC...

Not pumpkin-flavored macarons but pumpkin-colored at Angelina. Pumpkin is the color in my humble opinion in Paris.


Fancy kids store, Bonpoint is showing pumpkin hats and scarves.

Are you missing a pumpkin Eiffel tower in your collection? Dash over to rue Cambon immediatement!

Why not deck yourself out in pumpkin head-to-toe like this French girl...


I was interested to catch this class act dans le Metro - an art student off to class with her supplies in a Hediard bag. Pas mal non?

I'm off to watercolor class today at the National Academy with David Dewey. We're supposed to paint from the nude...ahem. But I'm bringing in my own subject matter - nice, colorful geometric macaron boxes and bags to paint (plus real macarons for contrast).

Bon(ne) Halloween PBers!
