Bonjour, mes amis. As promised, this blog returns to Paris tomorrow for a month of Paris In The Springtime. Yay! I am looking forward to settling back into my apartment and resuming the daily challenges of ma vie parisienne, such as trying to coax a smile out of the women at my boulangerie, always having correct change, and remembering to keep my purse zipped on the metro. Wish me luck!
A few weeks ago I made a trip to one of my favorite Houston establishments- Wabash Feed and Garden Store. The website says the store has been around for over a hundred years, although I have known of it only since my kids visited it on nursery school field trips. The kids were not too interested in the organic gardening products, but they loved seeing the baby animals and the assorted fowl. My friend was actually there to replace a chicken in her fancy new chicken coop, with which I am mildly obsessed. 
Ever since I experienced fresh, delicious eggs in Paris, I have dreamed of finding them in Houston. Now that my friend is the proud owner of 5 Rhode Island Reds, I am hopeful that I will occasionally score some of those fresh eggs!
So- back to Wabash Feed Store!
I love anything galvanized. Is that weird?
Got mealworms??
Please do not tell Wonder Chien that such fancy dog food exists in this world.

Wabash is such a fun place to take kids. If you find yourself in Houston during Spring Break, or if you live here, you must experience it.
Next broadcasts will be from Paris. See you there!
