At eleven at night, he suddenly jumped up from the sofa, said he was popping out and it was a surprise, pointing at me and winking. Back he came a while later, with eggs & bacon from the 24 hr supermarket. "Ooh!" I said, trying not to look for hidden chocolates, "It's ages since i had breakfast in bed. Really?"<BR/>He honestly looked at me like i'd taken leave of my senses. "no," he told me, "that's for now! I'm starving again. You go and cook it and i'll put the football on the telly."<BR/><BR/>I was stunned into submission and did stupidly cook it for him but i should have served it up in the garden and locked the doors.

Their croissants are superbe though. Like Mlle Buzz I tend to favor the "Temple of Maille" on the other side of La Madeleine, as I can put mustard on almost anything.<BR/><BR/>Petrea you don't have to start smoking again to be a "flaneur" you can just light one and hold it for "poise" or let it burn in the ashtray! LOL!!!<BR/><BR/>Did someone say they would send us all croissants from Fauchon??? That would be nice!! But like Eric said..."croissants tend to go stale sooner or later"!!
