We went to buy chocolate for some friends that are arriving on Monday and i was excited to take a photo of the window display. There was nothing left! The whole shop had almost been sold out. All the chocolate in the window was gone and on the shelvs even the ugliest things were gone. (that doesn't mean they weren't tasty)
There was still a line out the door, we got in line under the freezing rain. It was actually hailing. Once inside we got two miserable packages of chocolate covered candied orange rinds.
The rain had stopped and the sun came out so we walked to rue Vavin and had a gelato Italiano from Amorino and I got to speak Italian to the two girls that served the gelato. Mango and chocolate. We walked into Luxembourg and ate our gelato. It was so cold our hands were freezing. It is supposed to snow tonight and tomorrow night.

Hmmm - Happy Easter - chocolate covered orange peel. YUM!
I guess I'll have to save my trip to Paris for May. March sounds far too cold.

Oh, I'm so disappointed that we don't get to see the window display - too bad it was so sold out. Though, I don't think you did badly by at least getting some chocolate covered orange peels - I love those.

I wish I were sitting somewhere in the Luxembourg eating gelato... One can dream...
