Papeterie

The inside of my room is starting to look like a stationer's shop... 

[Ma chambre commence à rassembler une papeterie...]

A polaroid that we got printed off at the 'Ici & Demain' night at La Machine du Moulin Rouge

My friend sent me a care package of a notebook, some chocolate & a card from the Musee d'Orsay - just the ticket to get me through a 3 hour TD!

 Une amie m'a envoyé un cadeau surprise - d'un cahier, du chocolat et une carte du Musée d'Orsay, exactement ce qu'il faut pour m'aider à se débrouiller pendant un TD de 3 heures !

There are two types of people in this world - those for whom the sight of a drawer full of books fills them with joy and those for whom it fills them with fear. Luckily I'm in the former category!

Il y a deux types de personne dans ce monde - ceux qui sont remplis de terreur devant tout un tiroir plein de livres et ceux de qui remplis de joie - heureusement je fais partie de cette dernière catégorie !

 Another one to add to the collection!

And finally, I am very excited because I've finally booked some tickets to go and see 'Andromaque' and 'Phedre' at the Comedie Française !

Et finalement, je suis super contente parce que j'ai finalement réservé des tickets pour 'Andromaque' et 'Phedre' à La Comédie Française !

À Bientôt !

Little Paris Kitchen

Cooking for one isn't much fun, so luckily I've been able to eat a few meals with friends. When I am at home in my little 'chambre de bonne', I'm armed with 2 hobs, one of which can't be used whilst the small oven is switched on. Nevertheless, here are some filling lunches that I've been able to rustle up while I'm home alone.

Vegetarian Bagel Pizza

Spicy quesadilla, Stuffed pepper, Chicken and tomato salad, and my first ever poached egg on a crumpet - yum!

Apart from baking brownies with the girls from Durham, I haven't yet attempted anything sweet - but I'm really itching to make cinnamon buns as the nights draw in. Perhaps as a 5th November treat! My lovely sister has promised that she'll send out some of her brownies with my Dad when he comes to see me in a few weeks. They're made with a custom recipe and have been causing quite a stir at home so I'm pretty excited.

Sarey's famous brownie

 Something nice to look forward to whilst I plough through (stumble through) 'Chatterton' by Alfred de Vigny - huh!
