Posing in Paris

A while back, my friend Rebecca posted about her trip to Paris and issued a little challenge. She found this photo in her travel guide and set out to find the exact spot so she could pose like the bronzed Parisian.
She and her friend did exactly that.
And then she extended the challenge to her readers. I had totally forgotten about it until we happened upon the spot. I couldn't remember exactly how or where they were posing, but I was surprised at how close our shots turned out.
And, of course, we can't leave out the Coop, even it was nap time.

Don't be dull...Be Dazzling!

The BeDazzler isn't just for clothes and shoes anymore...

Someone in Berlin decided to take their car from dull to dazzling!

Hans Wurst Vegan Cafe

Last night we had a fantastic dinner at a little vegan restaurant in Prenzlauer Berg called Hans Wurst Vegan Cafe. You won't miss the animal products in these delicious, beautifully presented dishes. The meals are cheap (around 7 euros a plate) and served and cooked by dudes with sweet 80's rocker hair and jean short cut-offs. I think I recognized one of them from Poison. (I thought it was funny that this particular photo says "Flesh & Blood" since I'm using it to describe vegan chefs.)

I had the White Bean Rostis and Roasted Chickory with Basmati Rice and Ginger and Red Pepper Sauces. Pat had the Tofu Veggie Burger with Potato Wedges and Ketchup. Both of our dishes were so flavorful and so delicious.
Here are some close-ups:
And added bonus to the restaurant is this little play area that kept Cooper entertained while we waited for and ate our food on the patio.
Just a little sidenote, like with any restaurant in Europe, don't go if you're starving because it seems to take a long time to get your food once you've ordered.

Try this place if you're ever in Berlin. Trust me, you'll love it!
