favourite places, mashed potatoes, a mini-Versailles, essential shopping

Birthday marzipan from Stohrer, the oldest pâtisserie in Paris - founded by Marie Antoinette’s pastry chef! It’s also the birthplace of ‘baba au rhum.’

It includes highlights from past trips, Paris street style, what I like to shop for (and window shop for! I love the French expression faire du lèche-vitrines) and what I bought this past trip. This was fun :)
