When in Paris... eat lots of bread and cheese!

From our first night in Paris on, we fell into a routine I could easily get used to. We went and found a small grocery store and picked up some wine, bread, and cheese (and of course some coca light) to bring back to our apartment. Ever since I arrived in France I've avoided the cheese aisle, I know it sounds silly but it is huge with way too many options and I get overwhelmed by the thought of even attempting to pick out what I might like and make a decision.

On our way back from the grocery store the Eiffel Tower was already lit up for the night, so we stopped for a quick photo shoot with our very French groceries. We then headed back to set our table for our mini feast and enjoyed all the food, taking a break from eating to watch the tower sparkle on the hour from our balcony.

Let me tell you, and I know Taylor will agree with me on this one, because I'm pretty sure she would disappear every hour on the hour to watch the Eiffle Tower sparkle, it never gets old, no matter how many times you see it. I'm quickly learning that it doesn't matter how many times I go into Paris this semester and see the same monuments, they will continue to take my breath away each time I see them. I think that's one of the reasons I know for sure that I made the right decision about studying abroad!

We continued our tradition of bread, wine, and cheese each night they were in town and I'm pretty sure each night we added more food into the mix... first it was cookies, then chips, then some other cookies. It was great and I miss it, I can't eat a whole baguette by myself each night! (Actually, I probably could, but it wouldn't be the best idea)
