last night en tricolor
Before this year, I'd never really celebrated Bastille Day. But living in Paris kind of obliges one to ;) luckily, a festive Facebook invitation aided me with such obligations. "Let us gather to celebrate the best of our adopted homeland by eating and drinking together in the heart of the city." So, together with the hostess, Rachael, Lorelei, Lara, and many new (and less new) friends, I did...
I'm so glad to have photographic evidence of the fabulous time we had; a lovely reminder that being hungover tired most of the day today was worth it. Now that we've both had a chance to enjoy it though, I really should be going to bed. My new bed, mind you! I'm officially moved and settled into a quaint little studio in the heart of les Batignolles. Couldn't be happier :).

Thanks so much for coming down Danielle! I'm so glad you had a good time and it was lovely to meet your friends. I can't wait to catch up with you around the corner! (Side note, how funny to see our 'hood all written up as a tourist attraction on Air BnB!)

DeleteI love the last photo! The sparkler looks like an electric dandelion; precious!
ReplyDeleteAh, thank you! I'm glad it came at well, too. I was afraid I was going to burn my hand :)
DeleteHi, I LOVE the necklace you're wearing.. can you share where its from?
ReplyDeleteHi Eve! Of course. My boyfriend got it for me from a jeweler in Billancourt (right outside of Paris). It's sterling silver with a pendant made of black stones.
