I love the romance of Paris…the beautiful architecture, strong lines and picture-perfect monuments.

Even ordinary signs have appeal to me in French.

I have an obsession with Laduree. This classy, elegant pastry shop on the Champs Elysses has been around since 1862. The celadon green box with silver writing is the Tiffany and Co of sweets.

The inventor of the double-decker macaroon, they sell 15,000 a day.
