For the Birds
April 3, 2013 Photo of the day: "For the Birds"
Usually robins are harbingers of spring.
I haven't seen any robins in France this week,
but there are birds everywhere.
Gros bisous!

This morning I said, "Au revoir" to my beloved Paris.
A piece of my heart will always be there!
"J'ai deux amours: mon pays et Paris!'
Au revoir is never final;
It literally means "until I see you again."

April in Paris
April 1, 2013 Photo of the day: "April in Paris"
Frank Sinatra, Billy Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald,
Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, and countless others
have celebrated the arrival of springtime in Paris:
"April in Paris
Chestnuts in blossom
Holiday tables under the trees
April in Paris, this is a feeling
No one can ever reprise"
Yet, I feel as though Mother Nature is playing
an April Fools's/Poisson d'avril prank.
It certainly doesn't feel like April
with temps in the 30's and brisk east winds.
Still, if you look closely there are glimmers of hope:

Happy Easter from Paris!
Enjoy some Easter eye candy

Maybe just a perfect bit of chocolate and an espresso
