One more! Had to do this one in French:

Une boulangerie?
Mais oui! Baguettes, croissants,
petits pains — superbe! 🇫🇷

A bakery? Oh yes!
Baguettes, croissants, rolls —
superb! 🇫🇷

JenlovesJT47 @AnnCrystal the only word I know for yum in French is miam.🤤 Which word are you talking about? 1mo
AnnCrystal @JenlovesJT47 translated yummy in French on Google and it gave me “Délicieuse“ for feminine and “Délicieux“ for masculine 😂...miam is the translation! That's good to know 🤗😉👍🏼. 1mo
JenlovesJT47 @AnnCrystal ??‍♀️??‍♀️??‍♀️ I‘ve been out in the sun all day so don‘t mind me! ??‍? the first one you used is correct when talking about food. La nourriture délicieuse ? = delicious food ? 1mo
AnnCrystal @JenlovesJT47 🆒😉👌🏼, at least I was in the ballpark of what I intended to say 😂.

Inaugurated
in 1892, paying homage to
Ocean Man — Victor.

Fun fact: “Ocean man" was a self-applied nickname Victor Hugo used to describe the male literary geniuses he admired, comparing their minds to the vastness of the ocean. The sea and natural world were a significant source of inspiration for his writing and artwork, particularly during his exile in the Channel Islands.

I have been reading Les Misérables since January. Taking it at a slow pace and enjoying its Reading Companion Podcast by Briana Lewis. Highly recommend to listen to it for a more in depth read. It does help with the infamous digressions ?. #lesmiserables#podcast#victorhugo#bigread#classics#frenchlit#read&listen

The man to whom it had belonged had therefore come there of himself and died there. When they tried to detach this skeleton from the one it embraced, it crumbled to dust.

Hernani | Victor Hugo

Holaa, aún sigo leyendo esta obra teatral muuuy romántica.
“La luz de tus ojos ilumina los míos. Entóname
algún cantar como otras noches, en que tus pestañas
temblaban hasta dejar caer en mis labios las blancas
perlas de tus lágrimas. ¡Seamos felices! Bebamos, ya
que la copa está llena. Esta hora nos pertenece;
olvidémonos de todo lo demás. Háblame y
embriágame.

Beautiful Saturday afternoon = #bookhaul7 and a cup of tea at The Art Warehouse (where my son works). Two graphic novels for my classroom and two books for me from my local second hand bookstore.

merelybookish It is a beautiful Saturday! And I love the Art Warehouse. 2y

It is three hundred forty-eight years, six months, and nineteen days ago today that the citizens of Paris were awakened by the pealing of all the bells in the triple precincts of the City, the University, and the Town.
