I like the garage sale feel of L’Atelier des Guillemites. It’s a great place to score unique antique dishes, and the facade is different every time I’ve walked by. Evan suspects they use the front of the building as a rough artist’s palate to test colors for restoration projects. Whatever it is, it’s inadvertently become a piece of ever-changing art.

    Well whatever it is…or whatever the reason for the ever changing colors…You’ve captured it beautifully.

    Hey Nichole, I still have LBP subscribed in Google Reader and this post shows up there too… not sure if you were aware of that and not sure if it’s of any consequence but thought I’d let you know :)

      Hi Gaby!

      Thank you. We were able to switch up our RSS. We kept the name as LBP for now so people could get used to the switch.

      Thanks for letting us know.

      Have a great weekend,
      Nichole

    Thanks for the book recommendation, Nichole – it looks great. I featured it on my blog today with a link back to here. Enjoy your weekend!

    What a relief – I knew you had either been hacked or lost your domain – this happened to my husband’s website eurocanals.com while we were living in Herblay a few years ago. It took him a long time to get it back. He had to buy it from the person who “stole” it and had no plans to use it.

    When I click on your littlebrownpen it automatically went to your new site. Love the abstract paintings on the front of the cafe.
