FRIDAY/VENDREDI
I went to Montmartre to climb the steps to the Sacre Coeur. With all this butter and sugar I was ingesting – it was the least I could do.
At night, I went with my friend to the Fondation Louis Vuitton. A wonderful Frank Gehry designed museum filled with all the classics from the 20th century. Le Frank (the restaurant) had this school of fish floating in the air.

WEDNESDAY/MERCREDI
I was up for the challenge
– both getting up early on vacation and to make croissants and Pain du
Chocolat. I attended a baking class at La Cuisine Paris
and understood why the flaky pastry tasted SO good. It has something to
do with the 5 pounds of butter.
That was my salmon and
broccoli quiche I had for lunch too.
I managed to walk it off
later in the day when I went to the Louvre and signed up for a treasure hunt
with THATLou. Let me tell you – it was tricky
but I never learned so much about the artifacts and paintings in such a clever
and unique way (sadly I lost – next time I would do this as a team of two at
least!)
