I have been thinking a lot about France lately.
I get my fix by going to this little french cafe near work.
They make the best french press coffee and the chocolate croissant is out of this world.

This is how I always picture Parisian woman shopping - totally fabulous and put together, and ready to cook a delicious (yet somehow never makes them fat) meal.

Hey Sugars,
well, I am almost done with week 3, and frankly I should be starting over to have week 1 again. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday were horrendously bad days as far as diet goes, but good as far as life goes. I guess I shouldn't complain too much about that.

If I ever had to go quasi-gay, I’d go for Lindsay Lohan. I realize that just last week I was calling for her to be banished to some island where cannibalism runs rampant, but I’ve been rethinking my ways. Why?

Jourdan Dunn: catwalk superstarMy favourite thing to do on a Sunday morning is lounge around drinking coffee, eating croissants (even though I really shouldn't), and reading all the Sunday papers. Well, I don't read the actual papers, just the glossy mags that come with them as I love all the fashion and beauty stuff! On Sunday in the Observer Magazine there was a great piece on British model-of-the-moment, Jourdan Dunn.

This picture cracks me up! This is my baby boy, Laszlo. He is clearly using Jedi mind control to "will" the croissant into his mouth!
