Santa stopped by the Marais on his french motorbike before heading out on his run this morning. He probably just needed a café au lait and some pain au chocolat for the reindeer - at least that is what I told my son. We will be heading out also, but by train if the weather is permitting. I hate to think of all of those who got stranded this year. Tonight we will all sit down for a traditional French Christmas dinner. Here is what we will be eating.
