Today was a bit of a sleepin day for Deb after yesterday's marathon train ride. I got out a bit earlier and bought a couple baguettes and a couple croissants for breakfast since we had nothing in the place. Shortly after I got back Deb made her appearance and I brewed tea for us to drink with our croissants. We had to go out to get some food and non-perishables and around 12:30 we popped our noses out of the building and went shopping.
We think our butcher may have sold his business to the other butcher that has been in the shop, our butcher's wife and son left him sometime this summer for what we thought was vacation but turned out to be more permanent. We're hoping that he sold out to go and salvage his family life, but we don't know.
Be that as it may we managed to get our two shopping carts filled with stuff and then went home to a lunch of rotisserie chicken legs, cheese, fruit and a bit of wine. All out on our little kitchen deck, basking as the sun shown brightly. It was nice because since we went off daylight savings the sun is going down around 5:00pm now. It's the time of the month when I have to start the process of wiring our rent to our landlady, Carol, so that is my afternoon's goal. Deb is doing the laundry from our trip and looking at how much money we spent on our little holiday, woohoo. So all in all it's been a quiet day here in Paris.
