I love Paris in the winter when it drizzles

It's been rainy and my face hasn't come out of the book for much.

Today, Jay and I spent some good quality lazy time indoors and away from the rain. We stocked up on baguette to keep our bellies full but didn't leave again until I had to go to school for a meeting. After that, it was almost time for dinner, so we grabbed some ingredients to make a mean mac and cheese using french products that I've come to adore: butter, crème fraiche, and cheeeeese. We paired our beastly portions of mac and cheese with some salads in a balsamic mustard vinagrette because we've been getting kind of behind on the veggies.

Jay approves of our mac and cheese.
That's Glee we're watching in the background.


We also metro-ed down to the Eiffel Tower to see the light show, got caught in some downpours, and ended up dripping wet on our way back. The tower was beautiful, though, glowing in a blue with it's bi-hourly light show providing entertainment.



Total Damages today:
