"Paris is Always A Good Idea"... Oeufs En Cocotte and The Little Paris Kitchen, too...

So said Audrey Hepburn in character as Sabrina, in the 1954 film of the same name. The bit about Paris that is...not the eggs and The Little Paris Kitchen...I added that.

That's what we think too...and it is just "a good idea" at the moment...but one we can't escape from...a little worm that crept into our minds and is burrowing a deep hole there... 

...maybe it's because it's spring and you know the song...

...but we put it to rest and then we keep getting gentle reminders about how lovely Paris is. Like Rachel Khoo's - The Little Paris Kitchen.  

If you haven't watched it yet you must...(don't listen to the critics...you know what they said about The Delicious Miss Dahl and I ignored them then too and even tried to redress the balance a little!) The first two episodes of The Little Paris Kitchen are still on iplayer you can link to them here 
episode 1 
episode 2  


...and there are four more to come...here's a little taster...

Then I kept reading blogposts by people who'd worked at Shakespeare and company, or friends' tweets about it.

Hopefully we'll go to Paris soon...but if not...never mind. Thanks to the wonderful world wide web that steals my time, we are almost there...all I have do is browse a website and look at a few blogs, watch Rachel Khoo putting an English twist on traditional French recipes...pick up a book and read while enjoying eggs en cocotte...mmm...can't write...must go...egg yolk running down my sleeve...ooh and you can find Rachel Khoo's recipe for them here and watch another episode tonight...can't wait...
