Tata Elise

Saturday, August 20th, 2005

I became an aunt for the first time on August 12th. Her name is Zoe and she weighed 5.5 lbs at birth.

Today, I’m learning to make a charlotte (french cake), I’m hoping it won’t kill anyone…
I made a mustard rabbit during the week and a yogurt cake.

Tonight it’s off to moroccan restaurant with Betty. No wonder i’ve gained weight.

What’s New

Thursday, August 11th, 2005

First off, thanks for the comments. Even though I haven’t replied to anyone yet, know that it’s greatly appreciated. Second, I should be uploading pictures soon of my new life in Paris. When I arrived here, the lock on my luggage was broken into and there was no note left at the airport saying that a search was done. Everything seemed to be present except that I haven’t been able to find my charger for my digital camera. Strange…

So, I recently bought one on Ebay-France and I need to go to the post office to pick it up.  I am crossing my fingers that it’ll work with my camera (no reason why it shouldn’t but we’ll see.)

A friend of mine is coming to visit me, she’s arriving on Sunday at 6am (ugh) but regardless I am very excited and I can’t wait to see her !

Good news : I’ve finally picked up running and I’m enjoying running on the Seine for about an hour or so (well, it’s more like jogging but hey, I ran the entire album of G Unit).

Bad  news : I’ve been stuffing my face with baguettes and saucissons for the past 3 months and I’ve gained about 5 lbs since I’ve arrived.. ugh ! Hopefully, the running will help in reversing the damage the baguettes have done.
