Can one drink too much coffee or eat over zealously in Paris?

Oui!

Who Needs a Whoopie?

Almost Free

Getting a quick bite @ my favorite spot called Motto. It's near our South Williamsburg sewing shop and the apple pear salad is incredible.

Cinco de Mayo

July 4th has brought out the best in me.

1. It's made me realize that I often need a 4 day weekend
2. It's given me time to catch up on old movie classics that simply make me giggle, more than white wine
3. It's provided extra time to try new foods, such as risotto
4. It's reminded me that one can never have enough damask inspired fabric

2nd Wind

I just returned from watching Julie & Julia and WOW! I'm literally speechless.

I left the theater genuinely inspired and happy.  I didn't for see my admiration at all nor did I expect to be so enthusiastic about a per se chick flick!  Even at my disgusting Bermese dinner before the film, I noted to myself that the movie would most likely be okay, and that there was a 90% chance I'd regret spending 12.50 USD to see it.  Plus, I knew we were going to a theater with uncomfortable seats which always lends to an off night at the movies. 

Boy was I wrong. [Wrong about the movie but right about the seats :)]

Julie & Julia was straight forward and a sincere delight. Julie's quest for vindication was real and corky. It made complete sense why she needed daily tasks and a final deadline to feel focused. I fight deadlines all the time and struggle with finding purpose in my every move. But after tonight's boost of energy I feel a 2nd wind.

I desire to create, eat, laugh, be romantic and live!

But first sleep.

Goodnight.
