After a customary, wonderful breakfast, I had a morning's worth of time to a) work or b) go to ISEP and distract my friends from working. Naturally, I chose choice b. However, I wasn't there long before it was time to leave and fulfill our plans of lunching at Zen, which is supposedly the best Japanese restaurant in Paris. My friend and I walked there (it is just past the Louvre) intending to meet a friend. She got lost, and the restaurant was closed just for today, for some quick fixes. After much trouble, my friend and I walked around in circles a couple times and found an Italian restaurant (our other friend joined us…eventually). I had a marvelous pizza, which I have a picture of that I will add later.
It was a fantastic pizza. A beautiful day.
Then, we were lucky enough to have class in the Louvre, where we studied Géricault and Delacroix, two fantastic and fascinating artists with really big paintings. After many hours spent at ISEP pondering the meaning of life, the existence or nonexistence of objective morality, and other light topics, I went home to work and, eventually, have dinner. Yes, I cut out a walk with my friends that included serious chocolate acquisition and consumption, because I have heard from many sources that I do not present my dietary habits in a healthy light.
Therefore, I will describe the beginning of dinner, a nice salade verte, very nicely prepared, very healthy. Green leaves. What more could I want? We then had lentils and sausage, but forget about that. It was followed by a fromage Tom de quelque chose que j'oublie, which was a nice cheese, and tiramisu, but it was healthy tiramisu. Somehow.
Since then, I have been working. Pictures will come. Some day!
Yum, I really want to try that type of cheese... what was it again, "quelque chose que j'oublie"? I think I'll look for it at Pastoral. Does it go well with the vin invisible?
ReplyDeleteBTW, I agree that the principal descriptor for Delacroix paintings is "extremely large" though I'm not sure I agree with the other adjectives.
