The Paris Blog is a group site in English by Americans, Canadians, Brits and Frenchmen, mainly expatriates, who write about “the daily intricacies of life in Paris”. It’s edited by Laurie Pike, like me a Midwesterner who lived in California for a while. There’s a bit of everything/anything about La Ville lumière: arts, politics, neighborhoods, French culture, work (no jokes please). We liked “Cops Bust Gypsies at Notre Dame“–but how could such a thing happen on ground zero for things French?–and “Festival of Pain” (bread, not physical suffering), about an outdoor makeshift bakery and “bread-fest” just across the Seine.
