I spend a lot of time thinking about Europe – and France, in particular! In light of the fact that I am firmly planted in New Jersey, I’m always looking for different ways to bring Parisian flair to my home and kitchen! From cookbooks like The Balthazar Cookbook, to novels like The Paris Wife, to lifestyle books like Parisian Chic: A Style Guide, and grocery store splurges on pate, it’s fun to add a bit of joie de vivre to everyday life! While the website Basic French won’t have you speaking French, it does offer a terrific array of imported housewares, decorative pieces, linens and much more! (Basic French) I especially love these colorful, cotton foutas with their wide array of stylish uses and bright enamel thermometers!
