Talking with a friend this weekend about world travels, and
I mentioned my love for Paris, and he asked why aren’t you there? Best question
I’ve been asked in a long time.
Although it may just be Wednesday, and I may just be staring
away at my computer screen for another day, we can always dream we are
elsewhere…

Amazing video...
I thought I'd share one of my favorite Paris moments:
Waiting in line at Chez Omar to eat some of the best
couscous in Paris, not far from my apartment, and of course my mom strikes up a
conversation with the group in front of us. We soon learn that Chez Omar is also known for their French fries
which our new friends share with us when we end up getting seated next to them
at one of the large community tables. Oh and also, they happened to be German
fashion designers in town for fashion week. They kindly invited us to their
show. My mom sadly was flying out the day before, but I popped over to their atelier
the next day to grab my invite. Flash forward to the show, held at an old
Parisienne elementary school, just casually standing in the back and my German
friend from school (he spoke 5 languages, chain smoked, and was always dressed
just right – sigh) walks in – cheek, cheek – what are you doing here? Oh, I
just hang out at these things. He was there with a friend studying fashion in
Milan, of course. We all sat in the front row and gossiped away. Sigh, parfait,
n’est-ce pas?
Where would you like to be on this lovely Wednesday?
