Lunch

Passage Brady – Adventures in Indian Cuisine

March 11, 2010

When I first came to Paris, I imagined myself dining out in bistros and cafes, eating classic French dishes like  beef bourguignon, or ratatouille or creme brulee, all while wearing a black béret, striped shirt, and a gorgeous French man on my arm.
 
Okay, a girl can dream.
 
What I didn’t imagine, is how madly in love [...]

Typical Tuesday

March 9, 2010

Today I decided to keep my camera in my hand for pretty much the whole day to take you along for the day. Well, not so typical. I’ve mentioned before that we are in the midst of a two week intensive module course about global communication and advertising. The days have been long and there [...]

Nothin’ Like a Little Inspiration

March 4, 2010

I’ve been excited about today since the semester started. It was the first day of our photography class, which is called Le Flâneur Reconsidered: Documentary Photography in the Streets of Paris. Insert gasps of excitement here.
 
I, of course, woke up at 7:00am in anticipation and like any dorky kid on the first day of [...]

Gluttonasana aka You Got Butter On My Yoga Mat

March 1, 2010

A friend and I went to Le Cameleon today, a little restaurant right next to school in lovely Montparnasse. We enjoyed a three course lunch.
 
Yep, you heard me. Three courses. For lunch. If three courses for lunch is wrong, then I don’t want to be right.
 
I started with the saumon [...]

Et Voila! Soup!

February 24, 2010

I woke up yesterday morning with that dreaded “tickle” in the back of my throat. You know the one – It’s subtle, but it’s never a good sign of good things to come. After cursing the sick people roaming around Paris spreading their germs I headed straight to the kitchen to chug some Vitamin C, [...]

Airing My Dirty Laundry

February 23, 2010

Mondays are always fun. The last remnants of that glorious weekend feeling are wearing off (well, not so much in my case – my calves and hiney are still sore from all those walks I took!), and the reality of a new week is setting in which means there are several tasks that need to [...]

The Plan That Wasn’t

February 19, 2010

I’m a day person. Mornings are my thing. Yep, I’m one of those obnoxious morning people that wakes up chipper and ready to go, bouncing off the walls and singing whatever song I wake up with in my head.
 
Nights? Not so much. I always joke that I turn into a pumpkin around midnight. I’ve [...]

Simple

February 10, 2010

Just the other day I was frolicking the streets of Paris, wearing nothing but my tights, a rather adorable skirt, and a light jacket and basking in the glory of nearly 50 degree weather.
 
One week later, and this is what we emerged to see after our class visit to the Cité Nationale de l’Histoire [...]

Je manques…

February 2, 2010

Even in Paris, Monday’s always get me. Yesterday started bright and early – the sun was shining, the birds were chirping…okay, I exaggerate a little.
 
Monday got off to a bit of a rough start. I don’t know why, but this past week has been really difficult for me, adaptation why. Dont’ get me wrong, I [...]
