commentary
Chris, you know me too well. I couldn't even get through that sentence about you being a New Yorker before the comments were rolling off my tongue. And then in the next sentence I get reprimanded...again. I'm in Dallas on a layover. Wish you were here to eat pecan pralines with me. You'd appreciate them. But then, if you were here the non-sharing five year old in me would return. Enjoying the blogs. (Obviously I need to catch up on them.) Rob

Hi guys! I\'m really - I mean REALLY - enjoying your blog. You write wonderfully Chris! I have a few client issues though: ... just kidding. Travel safe, cook well and keep writing. BTW, I told Scott that I\'ve never seen Chris so happy as he looks in the pic on the previous blog. Paris suits you. Love ya, Michael

I'm really enjoying your posts!!!

Is that an electirc stove?
Are you cooking on an electric stove? I just moved into an apartment with an electric range after cooking on a gas range for over 30 years and I'm terrified. If you can prepare gourmet meals with an electric range I'll stop whining. Your diary is fabulous - I really enjoyed Jerry's trip to the museum. Live, love and enjoy, nb

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often. Alena Low Platelets Treatment

Quite possibly the best thing about being American is the bountiful water pressure in our wonderful American showers. I have fond memories of pastries in Pau. PLEASE bring me the egg cooker. Please, please, please!

comments, well...
You know I have almost as many opinions as you do. Do you want to open the floodgate? ahh, leisurely lunches. Why ate we Americans so rushed about everything? Can one ever tire of leisurely lunches w/ friends? (Books being some of the best friends ever.) I'm done with school and it feels like I have so much time on my hands. Time is such a luxury and as you suggest, better than any material possession. Time, friends and good food (wines a food group, right?) if we've got those then life has to be ok. Living vicariously, Rob

Hi, Thank you four your nice writing on The Opera. Thanks.

deja vous
Don't I have this shot from 1994? Sure with I was there with you this time. xoK

Great Voice
Chris- This entry was awesome! I could hear you speaking the words to me because your writing voice is so strong. Maybe you were the one who was supposed to publish the great American novel... Thanks for sharing this trip. It's probably nearly as good as being there (except I won't get any custom made clothes out of the deal!) Have fun! Your Little Sis
