Easter in Paris



Well, we finally got to Pawis.
My pawents stayed at theiw favowite little hotel on the left bank.. a sentimental favowite fow them.
 Angel Nowa had stayed thewe wif them yeaws ago.
Flat Lacie and I opted fow mowe luxzoowious accomodations..we pwefew ouw bweakfast on a tewwace, hehehehe


I have made smileboxes of the twip, but hewe is an abbweviated vewsion in a few pics fow those of you who don't have an houw to look at all of Mommi's stoopid pictoowes



this was the view fwom Mommi and Daddi's woom..peawly Pawis skies and the back of a pwepawatowy school
You could see kids playing ball in the couwtyawd



it wained , then shined, Mommi didn't cawe..she was thwilled to be in Pawis


the pawfect thing to do on a blustewy day is to have a nice noowishing lunch in a Bwassewie ow Bistwo
Lacie and I shawed a Pot Oh! Foo..deeelicious



My Daddi looks gweat up against Pawisian backgwounds





in the evening we climbed up to Sacwe Coeuw fow befowe dinnew excewcise

(we awe tewwibly health concious as you know, hehehehe)




no dinnew is complete wifout a tiny bit of sweet..this time a bewwy gwatin


then a walk back down the hill to the Metwo stop and glowious views of the city by night


Lacie and I pwefew to take my Vespa which I had sent ovew fow just such an occasion



hewe is the elongated vewsion of day one in Pawis if you have time, thewe awe some cool pictoowes

Mommi lit candles fow all hew fwiendses and theiw loved ones who awe in heaven and also fow all fuwwkids



aftew Mass  we went out to the Bwa duh Bool Onion..thewe is a little pawc inside of the big pawc..the little pawc is called Bagatelle Gawdens and that is whewe my Mommi's Mommi's  ashes awe scattewed



the sun came out just as we got thewe..this little chat oh is whewe my angel Gwamma lives. It's sowwounded by bootiful gawdens and the aiw smelled delicious wif spwing flowews. The shuttews wewe openend just as we got thewe..I think angel Gwamma was expecting us


back in Pawis, Lacie was delighted to see that she could get coke zewo..being awound Mumsie, she has gotten addicted to the vile dwink  and can't go wifout fow mowe than a few seconds



I was mowe delighted by the tawt Oh plums waiting in Mommi and Daddi's woom.  Of couwse, Lacie expected me to shawe.

Oh Asta...

Mum zeee has gained twenty pounds alone on all that candy you took pix of!!!! Oh dear...I started this comment dangling my preposition...I hope no one peaked...

Oh...where to start...those sheets were amazing...the thread count...the limited amount of time we spent in them visiting others to compare thread counts...

Arooooooooooo...what happens in Par eee...


Oh the archie tec ture...

And we didn't know Par eee had hills ...like da Burgh...well, sorta like the Burgh...actually the Burgh is nuthin' like Paris, but we like to pretend...

You got such great pix at night...Mumsie put her favorite...

Green Pic...on her desktop...she adores it...

I'll call ya in a little bit...Mumsie is clamering to brush us and take us for a walkie...who would wefuse le walkie...

BTW, I put down seventeen deposits on apts. in Pareee...

I think that's a reasonable number...

As for coke zero being a vile drink....

You obviously have no taste....

It's better in a wine glass...

Roll it on ze tongue...

And enjoy ze little bubbles as they pass through your esophogussie and make ya feel like you're gonn burst...

Ahh...heaven...

Kisses,

Suave and so fist e kated,

Mme. LAZIEEEEEEEEEEE

Asta Banana! Do you think I would fit in your mom's lap? I am a pretty big girl and your mom is pretty teeny. Tell her not to wear black the next time I'm in town, because I'm gonna shed all over her.

Bocci said...

Oh Asta, what great pictures and descriptions! There's nothing like French food (that's Parental Unit whispering in my ear, I've not had any :-) !

And did Parental Unit and I see correctly that all those beautiful paintings are your Mommi's artwork? Absolutely LOVED them!
You should brag more about your Mommi's talent!
Your buddy,
Bocci
P.S. Will not get tired of pictures of Paris!

Golden Samantha said...

Speechless... in French or English. Spent at least 45 mins. watching every bit of your bootiful stories and pix of your Easter in Paris and am so jelly. I have got to write and ask a few ???. My mom's Paris past encourages her to find out some things. You certainly know the neighborhoods - and loved seeing both pix and movies. St. Germain de Pres, les Brasseries, the views, churches and Easter services, oh my goodness. So much to comment on - don't know where to begin or stop. Yummies foodables. THANK you for making such a beautiful post!
Big Hugs xoxoxoxoxo
