En Guarde!


Look what I'm doing today! Vacuuming like I should be? Non! I found this book at Powell's this morning, and now I'm going to indulge in a little quiet time and classical French culture. C'est si bon! Sadly, this book did not come with its candy bar counterpart, but it does help me with #23 on my list. And maybe #5 too, but we'll see.

Maybe I'm feeling a little nostalgic about France because I was there one year ago, wandering around the streets of Paris with my friend, Tiffany, just going anywhere we wanted, eating anything we wanted, and breathing it all in. It is a city that I absolutely LOOOOOOOVE. I'm a little silly about it, probably. But what can I say? I'm not the only person to feel that way. It's Paris, for crying out loud!

Oh! Depending on who you are, you may be interested to read that I went up to Seattle this weekend to meet up with the Northwest Dreamers of Mondo Beyondo, and they are fabulous!!! I was so excited to meet these ladies, and we had an awesome time getting to know each other over yummy Greek food and gelato. I highly recommend these meet-ups for any others that know what I'm talking about and have the opportunity to meet like-minded women. (If you don't know what I'm talking about, use that linky up there and check out Mondo Beyondo. It's fantastic.) Go for it, people! Put yourself out there and see what happens!

Jenny I got your letter today and it is just so sweet. I had forgotten that it was on its way, but when I picked up the mail and saw the envelope, I knew what it was immediately. I am going to write you back so I am not saying anymore, except I felt really special today when I got your mail. You made my day!

I LOVE Powell's!! One of my favorite places to go in Portland!!! and Paris....there is just something magical in the air there....we biked thru the streets and it could not have been better. We spent 4 days there and loved every single minute. We definitely want to return! So cool that you could meet up with Seattle Mondo Beyondo girls!!! Happy Monday :)
