La Belle et La Bête

I watched this movie last night. It's a strange and beautiful film. Not only is it an enjoyable movie (Nick watched it too) but I would recommend it for listening comprehension practice!

Could you die—talk about eye candy! These are windows at Galeries Lafayette department store in Paris at Christmas. You can see more here.

Blustery Day in Paris?

We saw this street artist near Le Centre Georges Pompidou last summer. He stood just like that for hours, readjusting his pose very slightly when someone tossed a coin in this hat. The windy day illusion is such a cool idea and how handsome is this young man?



The street artist was just one of the many interesting things and creative people we saw in the square outside the Centre Pompidou.





The building itself is a sight to behold - not to mention the collection of art inside.

Le Petit Lapin

I just found this in my "favorites" folder on etsy, and my heart instantly melted! My little furry French bunny went to someone else...quelle dommage. Maybe his creator, La Bete Handmade, is busy making more?
