Saturday Morning Manna
This was our first week back at the halte-garderie and it was wonderful! (At least for me it was wonderful to get work done while my daughter spent time with kids her own age.) We also tried to get back into our routines and enjoy the last week of August. Paris was still a bit quiet this week, which was nice and allowed me to appreciate the beauty of the city minus the madness. A few of our favorite restaurants and cafes reopened and our friends have started trickling back in. This weekend is my husband’s birthday so we will celebrate with him and catch up friends who have been gone all Summer. What are you guys up to? Enjoy your weekends and this a little Saturday Morning Manna from Paris.
