[chocolat chaud and...]

Ever since a family trip to to France two years ago, May has become a time of Parisian reflection and longing. Something in the air reminds me planning, packing, traveling, strolling, scouring, eating, adoring, sipping, shopping, lounging and loving all in the heart France. Alicia Bock's nostalgic photo, Paris Rooftops, is just the thing to accompany my May mood. Now to find some true Parisian chocolat chaud and I'm just about there.
