Pretty Pink Paris


Who knew Paris could wear pink so well?


We are off in two days and before I went, I wanted
in her

Paris
Simply Irresistible Party.

I also have to help Beverly at
How Sweet The Sound
celebrate her third anniversary




Sacre Coeur is gorgeous here in a pale pink cast
of the sunset.



Who could walk by a pastry shop dressed in pink?

Or this pale pink cupcake shop - Chloe S.?


Here is what I found when I "googled" 
Paris
Chocolate Shops!
If you have read my profile, now you see what I  meant
about a
  chocolate shop on every corner.



I can't wait to try some out for you!

Maybe I will even bring some home.

Wouldn't these cookies be fun to make?




Someday I will have to stay in this
PINK
Disneyland Hotel in Paris.

OOH LA LA to the max!

Pink Christmas lights - I can't imagine what Christmas in 
Paris would be like!


Luv the pink poodle in a Paris store window.

I will be tickled pink to go to Galeries LaFayette
to shop 'til I drop.

I know we won't have nearly enough time here in this 
beautiful city.

The sun will set too soon 
and then we will be off to Bologna, Italy.
I can't wait to share them with you.

Could Paris be prettier in any other color?
(Well, maybe at night when she is dressed in gold!)

I will be pinking this up with
Jacqueline

Chocolat - French for Chocolate. I adored chocolate from a young age when I had to sneak in the cupboard to find where my mother had hidden the Nestle's Chocolate Chips. Having read about the famous chocolat shoppes in Paris, when I finally got there I was determined to try a chocolate from every Paris shoppe. I invite you to share my adventures in creating, in travel, and in life.

  12. Uh oh I got to looking around your blog too. Great blog - I love the individual photos on the sidebar and think inside the box (of CHOCOLATE!). Great Pink Post, I did read it first! Je parle francais un peu ... did I remember how to spell it? Did I get it? It's the last word I'm really uncertain of the spelling. I see where you went to Israel and what a blessing that must have been ... Passover and all. Awesome. Oh yes, I love your sister's blog title. You know,I'll not get very far on Pink Saturday if I linger like this. I can't imagine the pink pastry shop nor the other one that's a coffee shop (?). Wow. Cool selections and great Pink post. Happy Pink Saturday! Thanks or having stopped by my place! Jenn

  13. Well, we are both just quite continental, aren't we! Lafayette is magical, indeed. Have you been to the older department store, la Samaritaine (If I remember the spelling correctly...not to shop necessarily...but to go to the open air roof top cafe for croissants and a drink. Has to be the best 360 degree view in Paris. if you've been, then you already know...if you haven't been, don't miss it! Great opportunity for amazing panorama photography. Next week I'll share a bit of Sorrento and the amazing Hotel Belle Vue Syrene...oh my heavens! Cherry Kay

    Take care. Can't wait to hear about your trip!
