One of the [too] many evenings we spent there lately…

Rainy Sunday recipe: chocolate and pear tart (with grated ginger) + comfy couch + cool Korean movie

I finaly took the time to make a wish and fill in the left eye on my daruma.
Now, according to tradition, I am to fill the right eye when my wish gets granted (better hope that taking-over-the-world plot works out).
Thanks again MissSin and Sandi for all your lovely birthday gifts !

Enjoyed an exceptionally warm September day today:
Brunch at Bouillons des Colonies with Sophie, textile shopping at St-Pierre’s market, coffee near Montmartre (she offered to make me a nifty new curtain for my bathroom: yay !), book and curio shopping at bouquinistes stalls along the Seine and white wine at George near the house… Now heading back out for outdoor dinner.
If only Parisian weather could be like that all year long.

Guess who had a lovely bento box prepared for him this morning… 🙂

We were originally planning for a mellow end-of-weekend’s nightcap but eventually got ourselves into the Golden Gai Festa special deal: 5000
yens and one free drink at any of about 30 Golden Gai watering holes
(plus no seating charge).
So glad we did too: it was an absolutely awesome evening and a great way
to discover some of those places we’d never thought of checking out
otherwise.
