Katie 's here!





Look who is coming down the street from the St. Michael metro station!




After a quick tour of the neighborhood and picking up a baguette sandwich to eat in the apartment, followed by a nap, she is good to go!





We are off on a stroll through the grounds of Le Louvre.


Then we made a quick stop at the Astier de Villatte on rue St. Honore for a look at their lovely white china.



The beautiful plates and platters are made with Paris black sand and fired with a special glaze that leaves flecks of the sand apparent on all their distinctive porcelain pieces.





A pot full of jonquils echoes the beautiful spring day.





On to the Palais Royal and some chocolate chaud.




Back to the apartment for a gouter d'fromage.

  What ho!  reading glasses??? 




A grand and wonderful gift for me, for all these years!
