This balcony looks idyllic, as if it were in Castellina in Chianti. Avenue de Ternes is far from idyllic. It’s busy traffic.

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it.

A culinary sculpture from l’Éclaire de MARIUS on Avenue des Grandes Armées. Ouf. They look so good. I don’t even like éclairs but Marius has something extraordinary going on.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

When I lived in Tuscany we went hunting for these mushrooms. We found all kinds of other mushrooms but only once I found a porcino.
