A small ray of sunshine

Today as a treat (for my upcoming birthday) my husband and I went to have an afternoon tea at the Ritz in Paris. I can recommend it. It might seem expensive (39 euros each) but you go get a lot to eat and believe me you do not feel like an evening meal afterwards! When I go to these fancy hotels/tearooms, I always check out the toilets! I know it's pretty wierd but to me it's a tell tale sign on whether they respect their clientele "fully". So I did my routine trip to the "powder room" of the Ritz and it was quite impressive (well to me anyway).
After that we strolled the streets to get back to the Louvre and I spotted Chantal Thomass' shop!!!!! I had to go in even if I could not afford anything in there (well perhaps a carrier bag....)! What a treat this shop is! It's like entering one of these old fashioned jewellery boxes with satin inside and a dancing ballerina on top sauntering to a mechanical tune! Anyone who likes Dita Von Teese likes Chantal Thomass!
So there, something to remember, to cherish and go back on when the hours drag and the tears roll down....
