Christmas Week
It's Christmas week in Paris and people are not only looking for these very last gifts that they still haven't found yet (I'm sure you see exactly what I mean!) but also for the perfect dish to serve on Christmas eve or at lunch on the 25th. I'm a fish person personally so if I may send a personal message to the part of my family that is hosting me for Christmas this year, here is what I would love to have ;-) I took this photo at La halle aux poissons, 69 rue Castagnary, in the 15th arrondissement). A little far from the center, but definitely the largest and the best in Paris.

You could have entitled this one 'contrast' and I love that part of PDP too. One day the majestic ET, the other one, an appealing fish shot. I'm also proud to say that you took a pretty same photo two years ago day for day. And that I've remembered it very easily. Now, I think you really wish fish for Christmas ;-)

Yes, this fish market is not exactly au centre de la ville, but undoubtedly worth the trip! I love photos of fish—dead or alive, and I hope you get the Christmas meal you're hoping for, mon cher.
ReplyDeleteThinking of food (or is that just me?), dinner was not fish tonight, but poulet on the grill with balsamic vinaigrette marinade. Et les asperges. I confess I finished off a nice bottle of Bordeaux Medoc. One of the best wines I've had for a long time. That's why it's gone!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to all of you.
We had fish tonight, from a nice market, but not this picturesque.
ReplyDeleteHello, Jeff, let's talk tomorrow.
OK...poisson it is, just remember it is your turn to bring the foie-gras and champagne...merci! ;-)
ReplyDeleteMy mom always said to eat fish or pork for New Years, but not foul or beef. "You should only eat things that nose ahead, and don't scratch backward in the new year". Well these fish look like they've just done died, so not sure what to think! ;-)
ReplyDeleteAnd, does Promo mean on sale? I hope that your wish comes true and you eat fish for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteEric - sorry to go back to yesterday's photo, but is it possible to order that photo on a tote bag from Zazzle?!! (A black tote bag would be even better!!!)
ReplyDelete@Carrie - your wish is my command. I was able to make a Tiny Tote and a Grocery Tote in black, but the others are out of stock in that color. If you end up getting one, please let me know how it turns out since this will be the first ones I've made. Merci!
ReplyDeleteIt is almost Christmas time.I'm thinking of buying all the gifts today, but as I work at Hotel La Defense it is too busy now. Happily I can shop online.
ReplyDeleteBest regards.
