Just saw Lars Von Trier’s Melancholia.
When the movie ended it was so silent in the theater I didn’t dare to breathe for a few seconds.
I thought it was so amazing.
Breakfast this monday morning… (Check out my bubble wrap window !)
It’s rather chilly, and I’m rather enclined to walk straight back to bed.
Which I won’t.
I’ll drink my tea and make a new playlist for work, and hurry up to be on my way.
I’m deciding this will be a very efficient week.
Yet another perfectly light kitchen at Ikea Live
My feet at work today
Details of a beautiful interior designed by Kathryn Tyler (via here)
A very cool wedding picture at Frausieben
And a place that looks a lot like summer, at LeDansLa.
We’re getting stormy weather and crazy rain here,
our beautiful plant crashed down four floors,
our kitchen window exploded on me (and is now...
Oh how I get getting excited over a new table…
This one is new at Little Circus.
Everything around it looks pretty nice to me too !
Still waiting for my New York rolls to be processed, since my little photo lab man closed his lab !
These are the only pictures of me from that trip, taken by Jeremie and Claire with an IPhone…
I’m not much of a Polaroid-App person or whatever-its-name-is, but it’s nice to have evidence that I was there !
Thanks dudes.
Back to Paris :
Today was...
Photos at very good looking Black Jet Bakery by Lena.
Oh sweet + sea salt…!
Yesterday morning I made crêpes for dinner before going to work.
But not just regular crêpes, crêpes dacquoises, like my grandmother makes, from a particular region in France.
They have rhum in them, they’re sweet and always melty inside, and they’re heavenly.
Homemade Oreos at Smitten Kitchen ! (via here) I’ve been wanting to make the recipe from this book for a while, so I’ll have to compare before I jump into one of the two…
Some of us have serious problems on their hands.
Great business cards by Will and Kate
We just saw an outside viewing of New Wave movie Adieu Philippine, the last one of this summer.
It was so...
Home sunday !
I’ve been going through old papers and such and throwing a
bunch of stuff,
going through Super Natural Every Day,
taking showers, plural, because it’s SO freaking hot in Paris.
Back to work tomorrow…
Loving the colors at Weekday Carnival,
and oh this plant in its planter…
What I’m listening to these days
Lunch today : grated zucchini and apple salad.

Kate Moss’ wedding, cause I’m a dork.
We did brave the stormy clouds to see Manhattan on the grass,
and when enough people had done the same,
the clouds unexpectedly went away who knows where,
night came and the screen was lifted up
and the movie was amazing, as always.
I hadn’t seen it in a few years and each time I’m overwhelmed
by how great it is.
Back from New York !
Still loving semi-deserted Paris in August…
It’s very hot and heavy here, although it might start to rain real bad any second now, which might compromise our outdoor movie-picnic plan for tonight… Manhattan is playing !
I got myself flowers at he market with Camille, and opened my holly Mast Brothers chocolate bar (almonds&sea salt)....
I loved Anna and Stephanie in Mad Men (oh especially Anna)
and I can’t wait for Season 5.

Just watched Ceremony.
I loved the photography, which, it has to be said,
was VERY Wes Anderson-like…
