Chez Sophie

My dear sister, this post is for you. Some petit pictures of my humble abode. It's not exactly very tidy at present but je m'en fiche. So as you can see, there is a couch where you can sleep when you come stay, and I can make you coffee in the morning with my classy yellow percolator. Which, of course, we can drink with fresh croissants while perched on animal-print stools.

All I have been doing so far this week is working. And on Monday I started advanced French classes in town (by town I mean central Paris, as I live outside the periphery). It's kind of like being back at school again, which is not cool, and I don't like the fact that I have to study for a test most Fridays! But I must remember that it is good for me to review my subjunctives, find synonyms and identify the direct object pronoun. Blah.

Okay here is a little idea I got from an email which a friend sent me...perhaps you got it too...
I'll call it Four things.

4 new things I have eaten this week:

1.a religieuse (two iced eclairs, filled with runny chocolate and joined with cream)
2.Endives. Like slightly bitter, white silverbeet.
3. A kind of creamy chestnut whip, can't remember the name but it is apparently very typical french food and very yummy!
4. Lays. well actually I have eaten these before but not by the same name. It's a brand of potato chip.
