I was not going to celebrate PDP's birthday without a birthday cake was I? So here it is: a tarte Tatin (famous French desert) just out of the oven with one candle on it. I took it tonight while I was having dinner at my friend's Jerome who has this wonderful view on the Sacré Coeur (hard to see in the background this time!). I have had a wonderful time posting these pictures for one year and I surely will continue another 365 days... But most of all I really would like to thank you all for your stimulating comments that I enjoy reading everyday.
PS: PDP has already received anniversary "gifts", have a look!
Joyeux Anniversaire! (Don't forget to update your profile, alas.)
ReplyDeleteWishing you a Bon Anniversaire, Eric and thank you for all the photos that brings Paris closer to me on my island.

ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your wonderful blog;-))
oups!! I wanted to say years not pictures of course!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Eric!
ReplyDeleteSome readers may not know the history of the Tarte Tatin, the "upside-down apple tart", which is worth telling. It was invented in France in the 19th Century by the Tatin sisters, who ran a hotel. Exactly how they came to invent it is less certain, but one version has it that they used to flirt a lot with the customers and one day forgot and left some apples and sugar in a pan too long as a result, and they caramellised. Rather than throw it away (being the frugal hotelkeepers that they had to be, they put the pastry that had been ready for the base over the top, cooked it off, served it and discovered that they had created something quite special. I've got this inclination to start a food blog - I might just use this as the excuse!
Happy birthday Eric!
ReplyDeleteEric, happy anniversary. Thank you for the beautiful pictures and information about Paris. Hope someday I will see those places in person. More power and many more anniversaries for Paris daily photo.

ReplyDeleteThanks for a year of memorable photos - it seems you've brought together a little community here. Did you make a wish before blowing out the candle? Are blogiversary and blogday words now? I can't keep up.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your blog! Blogging really is satisfying and I look forward to celebrating a year of blogging on my sites. I love Paris and it is great to be able to sneak a peek at all these little details.

Haaaaapy Biiirrttthday Toooooo Youuuuuu! Sing it. Congratulations I have nominated you for the Nobel prize in visual communication , tarte tatin my favourite !!! and the best test of a good french cook yummmmy. looking forward to many more Paris quotidien ,Judith from Oz
ReplyDeleteI think that just because it's your blog's birthday and everything, well, just for this time, you should be awarded a damn DAY OFF! Aren't there labor laws in france that prohibit people from working 365 days a year, even for a good cause? ;-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations - here's to the next 365!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Eric,
ReplyDelete365 beautiful parisian days... that make me feel like joining the DailyPhoto family... It's now done. Vivre-Venise is the title.
Best regards.
Pierre
Happy Anniversary from your devoted fan in California!
ReplyDeleteGee Eric, I've been away several hours and then see you have 68 (now 69) comments! That must be a record for you and over a photo that really celebrates your accomplishment. People realise how much time this takes to do, and the other city daily photo blogs have really taken off. Congrats again, and maybe now this will tempt someone to be number 70 in your comments!
ReplyDeleteYou even made it onto Loïc Le Meur's blog. Now that IS recognition!
ReplyDeleteIn English
En Français
I imagine that makes me comment no 70 aussi!
70? Are you kidding? Let's go for 100!!! Come on people! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations also from your distant and slightly older cousin "Port Vila Today" - now posting a daily photo since January 2005
ReplyDeleteJoyeux Anniversaire to PDP and the wonderfully talented creator Eric!! Merci beaucoup for all the many times I have opened my bookmarks, clicked onto the site and one of your perfect pictures made me smile...and miss Paris[Oh so much...]Merci encore from San Francisco..where it is true, it is nice but not that nice! ;-)

ReplyDeleteciao

Mary Lou: "do you eat it with ice cream?"

Soft light, and a poetic picture...
