i dont know why - but i do. there is a fabulous little restaurant in the old town square here where i drink strong coffee and smoke. Im sure i will write some of the lyrics for Almodovar whilst i sit right here. It is run by the most adorable people who treat me like a star and are very sweet about my bad french. they smile kindly as i tell them that in london i am a golden retriever and that i love to snow in the morning.
That's so poetic though. 'In London I am a golden retriever/. I love to snow in the morning.' Beautiful. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the people who run the restaurant love it that you try in their language, however imperfect it might be!
I would love to see the town square and its buildings. Wish we had buildings like that here. I imagine secrets behind those shutters, and echoes of all the people who have lived there during centuries past. But I also like them, the shutters, because they make the buildings look friendly.
Not familiar with the expression love to snow in the morning. Must be a doggy thing. I initially thought you wrote snore in the morning. This prompted another take at your post. Hopefully the weather co-operates and you can hang outside for a bit. Always great to find a comfortable place where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came do do do.............nevermind.......cheers.........
ReplyDeleteInterpretation: You have golden retrievers in London that love to run in the snow in the morning. Something like that?
ReplyDeletelove the photo. It has that "charming" appeal.
ReplyDeletehmm, I shall ponder the morning thing for awhile...So, what would you tell people in London who you are in France?
I work for a French company now and am debating whether or not I should try learning French. I think I am going to try even though I doubt I'd be fluent enough to carry on a full business conversation.
ReplyDeleteMy boss who is French said even he has trouble talking to the French CIO because he uses very old-fashioned expressions and terminology.
What a nice cozy street to take a walk down. Very charming.
ReplyDeleteha-ha! I think I might say: car up tree drove my house
ReplyDeletenot sure.
I was very lucky to see France once (for one month!). I adore my memories of being in Paris. Thank you for the picture, and for a taste somewhat of strong coffee. ahhh!
I love shutters too! (grew up in New Orleans - no shortage of French-style shutters there)
ReplyDeleteNice pic, Rachel. It looks so wonderfully dingey there. I'd feel right at home.
