paul bakery... the most beautiful bakery in the world next to normandy in slc
 don't you just want to dive into those tarts?
 these are my carb drugs of choice
 about to partake of a lemon tart... in the sunlight... along the seine... on my last day
 wait for it...
 that's my "holy hellena that is so good" face
 cute jairus with his pegged pants and french vintage briefcase
 oh paris, we will meet again soon
 he's sad to see us go
 delicious fuschia velvet wedding outfits
 the bride
 last day in the garden
 geraniums
watching one of our hilarious iphone videos in his nip slip tanktop
 petit bateau's
 we passed this homeless man everyday and named him "prince germain"

I have loved your Parisian journey, Sara. I love the inside jokes and running journal dialog.

Also-I just need to know. Where did "Oh my Hellena" come from? Because we say that in our family too. Wonder if it started at Outback...you'll have to let me know.

Oh Sara. I loved it all. Great pictures. I wish I were at artsy and chic and world travely and just plain cool as you.
