Marie N.







Marie needed some new photos for her portfolio.
I was thrilled when she asked me. We had a lot of fun during this shooting.
These photos may not be the ones she is going to work with, because they are not classic enough but they are my favorites.

My first five senses friday

Je rêve d’insouciance et de légèreté.



Seeing:
-my little orange round Hermes box, souvenir of a gift

Hearing:
-Milkymee

Tasting:
-organic shortbread

Smelling:
-my tea: Wu Long 7 agrumes from le palais des thés

Feeling:
-the paper of my notebook between my fingers

I wish you all a lovely week-end.

I know friends will be around us so we will probably drink good wines, eat good food, take plenty of photos, laugh and forget a bit.

Thank you to each and everyone of you for your words and your thoughts.
I haven't been really around our blog world but received all your messages and your support is truly moving.
A glass of wine at the end of the day helps too!

His birthday

David turned 38 yesterday.
And his body gave up on him again...
Despite his eyes loosing control and focus, despite his fleeing memory, despite the week that we are probably going to spend in the hospital, the after effects, the aggressive treatment that we might start, despite the tears we shed, I put red on my lips, called a cab and we joined his surprise birthday party planned for weeks.
And that was just the best time for him, for us, to be surrounded by the love of our friends and family.

Around Beaubourg






We went to the opening of an art exhibition yesterday.
I fell in love with so many of the paintings.... I might get one.

This morning, I am in this mood.

Wisdom from an elder


For my grand mother, cooking was a true act of love. She did pass it on to me.
She gave me her hands too. Whenever I see mine, I see hers.

I might try to go in some day; or maybe not, because just passing by was enough to wake up my imagination.

Paris under the snow this morning.

Natsumi and Hannah Sadie tagged me. Thanks girls! I have to tell you 7 things about me:
1-Elisabelle is the name that the best friend of my son and the son of one of my best friends gave me when he was 3. We found it so cute that we kept it and it became my blog name when we started this blog and this blog.
2-I love Paul Claudel's plays
3-I listen To Ane Brun all day long
4-I spend a lot of money here
5-I drink far too much diet coke. But I am trying to quit every other day.
6-I don't like chocolate
7-Right now, I am waiting for sweet peanut who is "kidnapping" me for lunch. So I am happy, happy, happy.

I'd like to tag

This is one of my favorite place when I have time for lunch.
This was even part of my list for Ida .
Its name is Autour d'un verre and it is run by Kevin, an American who cooks delicious simple French cuisine.
I 'd love to go soon with Marie Dee.

Not far away from home, there is a street I love: rue Mouzaïa. It feels so different from any other place.

Je pense sans cesse à Florence. et j'écoute ça
