This morning, as I was strategically applying make-up (it takes more and more time and "products" to look "natural" these days), I looked down into the drawer where I was placing my dear Bobbi Brown to hide from my adorable granddaughters who think concealer is lipstick, etc., I saw some notecards with Monet's gardens on the front. Claude Monet! I quickly sent a text message to Katie to ask her if Claude Monet wasn't from around Paris somewhere...Alas, Giverny, his home for 43 years (and his inspiration) is only 80-90 km west of Paris. I guess I'm going to have to look up km vs. miles and remember the formula if I am going to be planning this trip! Aha... it's .6 miles... so doing the math it's only 48-54 miles! I think that might be doable.
Katie has researched some cooking classes. Is one week going to be enough time?
Off to the bookstore to gather some reading materials and a map of all the arrondissements of Paris!
Au revoir!
PS Maybe I should price French refresher course CD's. I had cassettes, but nothing to play them on anymore. C'est la vie!
