You know, it’s the little things in life that matter. At Le Bristol Hotel, it’s the ornate China used for your morning cappuccino.

Greetings From Paris & Le Bristol Hotel
During our recent trip to Paris, we stayed once again at the marvelous le Bristol hotel on Rue de Fauburg Saint-Honoré. We have often “joked” about how much we missed breakfasting (pre Covid) at Café Antionette, just about our favorite Parisian activity.

The Most Controversial Restaurant in Paris?
One either loves or hates CHEZ L’AMI LOUIS Many visitors find the prices high and the staff a little off-putting. Debbie and I continue, after numerous visits through numerous years, to be enthusiastic supporters. The best roast chicken, green salad, escargot, and foie gras merit the price received.

Floridians are counting their lucky stars today after news that the Democratic Party’s 2018 nominee for governor in the state, Andrew Gillum, has been indicted on 21-counts including wire fraud, conspiracy, and making false statements to the FBI.

Biden, a Job Killing Machine
UPDATE 6/24/2022: Republicans are engaging what they call “heavily dissatisfied Hispanic voters” around America in a bid to build a wider coalition against Democrats in 2022.
