Rouge Jaune Bleu

 Rouge, jaune et bleu aquarelle

I bought this little (1 3/4") Limoge-style perfume holder in Passage Jouffroy

 I've been playing with mixing up reds + Yellows + blues since I got home

The most basic color triad out there.

 

Maybe I was inspired by these red cafe tables

 

On rue Rambuteau

 

This lemon yellow table top looks just like

 

A tarte au citron

Or Wayne Thiebaud's round yellow cheese painting full of reds and blues too.

 

Red + Yellow + blue are used a lot around food.

Like this boulangerie painting of a wheat girl

Or this chef eating his dinner and licking his chops

Down the street on rue Rambuteau is Cupcake Berko, famous for their colorful mini cupcakes.

 

More goldeny than bright yellow but this tarte fine is still yum.
This post is making me hungry!

De Trop?

 Which would you rather have? Fraise tagada from Haribo? Strawberry candies...

 Or real fraises/strawberries in a Dalloyau mini charlotte? OK, that's an easy choice.

 Did you know the French have several cookbooks devoted to their beloved penny candy de mon enfance? Oui, c'est vrai. De trop non?/It's too much

 Too many Pizza Hut motorcycles lined up on bd de Richard Lenoir?

De trop?

 Just the right amount of red/rouge in the Metro - parfait!

 Big red bow on wedge baskets/sneakers?

De trop!

 Kasia Dietz red toenails?

C'est parfait

 Plenty of red shoes on sale at Repetto during the soldes...

But just -20%?

Pas trop :(

 Red shoes in the Metro...let me look again at Repetto

 Mini red expresso take-away cup with silhouettes...

Parfait

 Can you hever have too much French red fruit jams/confitures?

JAMAIS!

 Have you tasted the red old-fashioned hard candies, coquelicot made from poppy flowers of Nemours? You'll find them in many fine Paris patisseries like Sebastien Gaudard et La Mere de Famille etc.

Red bag + red shoes

De trop?

Do you think Parisbreakfast should post just 3 days a week?
