*sigh* There is snow everywhere but here, we are having a mini heat wave on the East Coast it is currently 10°C. At midnight! They were playing golf on PEI today. On the shore of the Atlantic ocean. In Eastren Canada. In December.
Joyeux Noël

Hey: sorry I haven't gotten to you, email is out of commission, only tha mac is on line at the moment.
Cryptically: Wow, yes. excellent. I get a 21 Club vibe, or something elegant and roaring 20's.
I also think Chelsea, or The Cloisters.( there's a famous engraving) bis bis, julia

Thanks for the snow! We received your snow from yesterday here in Frankfurt, Germany in the way of 3 inches (7.5cm).

My buttons and notions always seem to disappear too esp. when I need them. Mine always seem to go the way of the couch or my 3 year old!

Joyeux Noel et bonne annee!

happy first day of winter to you too. If we were neighbors or cube mates I would have given you a clementine (tangerine.) I love handing them out on Dec 21st.

I can't believe it snowed. Nice picture. Paris is so beautiful.. but even more so with the snow.

hi! I was searching on Google for yarn shops in Paris and I saw your posts on the knitter's reviews forum. I am going to learn to knit (a simple scarve) from a colleague who lent me her needles and am looking for a good yarn shop where I can buy nice yarn which are not too expensive. I looked at the websites of the shops you mentioned but I'm wondering if you have any personal favourites. Is Phildar expensive? Cos' I heard from some people that Le Bon Marche is quite expensive.
P.S: I saw the snow yesterday too! It was beautiful! But I was kinda sad cos' I didn't have my camera with me at work.

beautiful snowy pic! and glad you found your button.

NICE view!Minimal snow here, but it's FREEZING. Actually, below.

Did I tell you that the thing I am dreaming of knitting as soon as my yarn diet is over is a black cashmerino cardigan with all different vintage buttons.
Perhaps we are thinking some of the same thoughts?

great picture. glad you found the button, too.
happy happy joy joy holidays from us!

Paris is so beautiful! Thanks for posting beautiful photos every once in a while to make us dream about it. Please eat a pain au chocolat for me. :)

Thanks for the pic of snow in Paris! Brings back a wonderful memory for me!

how the hell did you get snow?? I havent seen anything to oh la la over...

I did however feel the hairs on the inside of my nose say holy crap its cold!

Oh Kate, I'm just wiggling in jealousy--the Paris street, the snow, the pessimistic gas company man...although it looks like we might be getting snow today! Now, what did you put the buttons on, cherie?

Tres Magnific! Kate -- I love the view from your window but then again I loved seeing your neighborhood. Sounds like it's time to curl up with some knitting and Banania (I am sooo addicted to that stuff, so addicted and I blame you!)

Enjoy the snow! I hope it hangs around for a bit!

If you keep posting pictures of your view, I think your blog will be beautiful enough to stand among the nicest blogs on the internet. How lovely!

la neige? je suis jalouse, tres jalouse. ici, en louisiane, il fait du soleil et 65F. c'est trop chaud pour la premiere journee d'hiver!

love the look of your blog and the picture outside of your window looks so pretty,have a happy xmas!

That's such a wonderful view to have outside your window! :)

Glad to see you back. How fun to see the snow. What beautiful buttons! Hope that you find the missing one.

Cool buttons!
Check the bottom of your purse...
The fridge...
The insides of your shoes...
Flashlight to the floor is always a good option...
Button discipline is a challenge :-)
I really love the ones that look sort of oval.
So, ya like snow, eh? you're thinking of moving to the right place, then :-)

I hope you found the lost button and don't have to stand in line for another hour.
Can't wait to see what you come up with for the kilt socks.
Have a great Christmas holiday with lots of knitting time and lots of sleep.
