This is a belated post for Wednesday - we went to the musee d l'orangie. We wanted to see Monet's waterlillies. The two rooms are bathed in natural light just like he had wanted. It was amazing to be surrounded by his work rather than just a print on a page in a book. The surprising thing was that the downstairs contained MANY works as well. We were surprised to see the number of Dali, Picasso, Manet, Monet, and other contemporaries as well.
Today was the day to find all of the final chocolatiers we wanted. We have been able to sample LaDuree, Pierre Herme, Christian Constant, Patrick Roger, La Maison... they each have unique qualities and personalities. The macaroons were the biggest challenge because we sampled them over several days. Next time we will have them side by side for a true comparison test.
