Honestly seeing all this when I wake up and not being anywhere near a boulangerie or patisserie is devastating 😂

How are your French skills coming along? I'm so curious!

Oof—not as quickly as I'd like! I'm learning to pick out much more vocabulary from French speakers than I could at the beginning, but we haven't had nearly enough in-person French lessons to make serious progress.

and it doesn't sound like you need a ton of French to get by - whenever I travel, I always silently bless the lovely Europeans (and people everywhere) who take the time to learn our language!

I'm grateful every day for that too! I do always try to speak in French here, even though I can't say much yet 🫠 Basic phrases + etiquette + smiling goes a long way.

I mostly eat low-carb, but everything you show looks so good, wow, sometimes I just have to break the rules.

My boyfriend is the same way…so whenever he breaks his own rules about avoiding bread, I call it his “hybrid keto” diet 😅
