La femme Noire en Paris

I had lunch at La Madeleine today. I always feel like I've left home when I go there. Cute bistro tables, slightly rustic in decor...tres chic for a moderately priced, American interpretation of what French dining should be.

As it often does, my mind began to wander and my heart beat just a bit faster.

I'm getting a bright idea... Why not Paris?
