Foie Gras..............

Foie Gras is vacuum sealed in containers that appear to be about eight ounces.in size.  Each package is 80E (close to $100 U.S.).  It's very entertaining to see how meat is displayed in windows.  We saw some cute little birds (I'm not sure if they were quail or squab) and they still have their feathered heads attached.  We didn't walk far this afternoon because it's cold and raining but it was fun seeing the neighborhood.  Afran and Philippe live in the 10th District of Paris and there are two Metro stations nearby with a huge number of bakeries and cafes and small boutiques.

We have been told to "dress up" tonight.  It's Helia's last night in Paris and we're going to an elegant restaurant for dinner.  We're told that it's very special and that they've had reservations for a couple of months, but it's a surprise............
