iPod Touch I Think I Luv U

BEAR is not too thrilled with his new iPod Touch 4th Gen...
He's threatening to do something lethal if we don't figure this %$#@ thing out soon...
HELP George Clooney! Where R U when we need U?
Bet this 5-year old on Mad Ave could figure out the iPod Touch but we can't :(

What's with this slidey thing at the bottom? Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. And don't tell me to read the directions in the box - R U kidding. The type is -00.

BEAR does love his Paris maps so we managed to buy and downloaded all the Paris map apps David Lebovitz told us too...

So pretty non?

We heard the Louvre app is really swell and hey it's FREE. We got it. But how come we CAN'T OPEN #@!$IT!?

In fact we can't open any APPS we uploaded...

Why is that? SOS!

Someone at David's said this was a REALLY good app - but it's 303MB..isn't that like too many MBs? We only have 32 gigs on our little iPod Touch thingie :(

So these are my Apps so far. AND do not say anything about the Better Bum App - it's supposed to be really good according to the Daily Mail or some rag and hey it's FREE

Right now BEAR & I feel pretty idiotic 'cause we are not getting this iPod Touch thing. Is there a How-to book/class for us?YES! ANd we got it!

When we GET it, we are gonna toast Paris big time soon!

BEAR says he wants a cashmere baby bearfriend too...Hmmm

Soon we can create our own ICE CREAM APP right?

Got any great PARIS APPS PBers?

A BIG MERCI for buying books & stuff at PB! That's how we got this iPod thing - with award points.

iPOD TOUCH THING I think I Luv U!

Update:I found a book with BIG pictures, My iPod Touch(2nd edition) - they have lots of How-to videos here. Plus I'd set my iPod thing to ZOOM so I had do a 'RESTORE'-easy as tarte citron. We're cookin' BEAR et moi. Open Apps? - Open Sesame!

More on Tarte au Citron

                     Pierre Herme's Tarte Citron au Citron, 9" x 11"

And without further ado the winner of the best tarte au citron in Paris is none other than... PIERRE HERME!
*I am re-posting this from 2007 because dear Paris pastry chef David Lebovitz gave me a link today on his fab one-lemon bar recipe. And because I'm a little fatigue with all the PT and back exercises and general keeping up on things.

I'll be back with more ROSES a demain!

Merci en avance darling PBers.

This came as a surprise. I thought Gerard Mulot hands down would be the bestest, with his simple, direct, flat lake of a tarte.

I was convinced one should not desecrate a citron tarte's smooth surface.

Boy was I WRONG!

Those generous pieces of lemon zest in Pierre Herme's tarte are NOT candied, but super TART! In fact this tarte was the tartest of all the Parisien tarts!

AND the most LEMONY!

Pierre Herme titles his tarte, "TARTE CITRON AU CITRON" with good reason.

Many of the test tarts were too darn sweet even if pretty...

Where's the lemon?

Quite a few tasted too much of the lemon curd jar (Paul's)

Some had almost no lemony taste at all (Saduharu Aoki) !?

Here the results of Gerard Mulot vs. Pierre Herme (on the right).A picture speaks a thousand words.
BUT the tarte au citron contest is not over!Talk about pastry geometry - look at this squared lemon tart at Fauchon's. I have more work in front of me...
