our Thanksgiving feast was as good as it was to be expected, and even BETTER.
we had turkey with celery&apple stuffing, cranberry jelly, mashed carrots, roasted butternut&sweet potatoes&parsnips&rosemary, grilled spiced corn, apple pie, carrot cakes with an orange glaze, red wine,...
a selfportrait and a breakfast by jen
today my friends and I are having a late Thanksgiving lunch, cause we thought, why would only the americans (and north-americans, will that do, you canadians ?) get to eat stuffed turkey and cranberries ??
so we’re having a sunday feast.

it was snowing in paris yesterday !
it’s a good thing I had my polaroid with me, and that it suddenly decided to work like a charm !
no funny business this time.
I love the color cold gives, which reminded me of another snowy day in paris two years ago… (also, even if you can’t see it in the first one, it really was Attack of the Flakes then, they just...

I’m overly fond of these pictures of espresso marshmallows by Jenna of Whimsy & Spice.
She talks about photographing them on her blog too, and I love how they look like little rocks.
And most of all, how they look completely DELICIOUS.

Also, i’m a sucker for good wedding photography.
There, I said it.
Even if I made the desperation of my wedding photography instructor last year, when I kept focusing on the bride and groom’s feet instead of their heads, because feet are way funnier.
It’s tough to find not-cheesy pictures, and sometimes it’s a little cheesy but it still works.

I’m a sucker for good packaging.
this enveloppe in the mail last week made my day.
I love these pictures by Debbie Carlos, taken of the animal displays at the Chicago’s Field Museum.

the light was really beautiful both times but it doesn’t show much…
the sun is OUT today !!
I’ll go out for lunch with my friend Florian and a birthday lamp…
I wanna make chocolate pudding cups (by bakerella),

I just had my LAST North American roll processed, which is cool and kinda sad…
These were taken on the most amazing train I ever took (train-speaking, not landscape-speaking), from Emeryville to Seattle.
It felt like from another century.
There was that really tall elegant guy taking care of seating down the passengers as they arrived and distributing fluffy pillows, and oh! the...
