Grocery Shopping in Paris

 Grocery Shopping in Paris

We stayed near a few small grocery stores in Paris where we shopped for most of the food we needed for the apartment.  But that didn't mean we didn't browse in every kind of shop imaginable!  There were so many enticing foods available everywhere we turned, so it is a good thing we did a lot of walking!  Every shop had tempting treats, and it was hard not to succumb to all of them.

While we loved shopping and being in Paris, it was nice to get home to my regular old McDade's or Kroger where I could read the labels and know what I was buying!
