Leaf Greens Paris

Yesterday it was green, green, green in Paris.
Does anyone know anything about 'green' almonds?
What does one do with them?
This picture was shot a few Sundays ago when it was drizzling. I love the little green squares that pop up out of nowhere in Paris.
Pierre Hermé's Macarons of green apple, mint, cucumber and Rocquette. Next time I'll taste instead of shoot...
Yesterday at the Tour Eiffel. I got off the#42 bus several times to shoot the greens...
Love how Sadaharu Aoki plays with the color green...
Another bus detour for the building covered in greens near musee Branly - I think these are evergreen - year round greens.
Boissier green tins look like they were created in the 1890's. Were they?
Poubelle (sp)green is not the same word as pourboire,but I keep mixing them up...
Hermés latest Les Jardins box has real (?) green turf in it. You pay extra for this...
Green silk jacquard fabric on the walls of Chateau Fontainebleau.
I never noticed the patisserie across the street from me is forrest green! Le Figaro gave them 2nd place for their chocolate religieuse. I almost never go in but suddenly there were lines out the door. I was not bowled over I have to say but then the religieuse sat around on my table waiting to be painted for days - a definite no-no with French pastry which has a shelf life of about 24 hours.
Yesterday in Printemps I fell in love with this vendeuse's little grass green bows going down her back...
Today I'm off to see the Bayeux tapestries in Base-Normandie. I will try to eat every local specialty except les tripes, les moutons de mer, and espace d'andouilles.
No way will I miss out on le caramel d'Isigny!
