WOOOT WOOOOOOOT!!!

Although I will probably be the only one that gets excited about what I am about to write, I can't help but share it, even if I am like- oh I don't know - 6 months or so late... oops, sometimes I am a bit slow on the uptake. BUT as I was reviewing my blog stats the other day (side note about this to come below), I noticed that there was an unfamiliar link that was directing people - or at least one person, quite a few times, to my blog from A Taste Of Garlic. A blog that I have been following for awhile, because it is all about other people's blogs that are here in Paris, they could be American and here for school, families gettitng used to the culture, French cuisine blogs - there really is a serious mix of everything in this one -stop - about France - shopping -spot.  Anyway, I clicked it and what did I find - a sweet little shout out to my own personal favorite blog - Nouvelles Aventures!! WOOT WOOT for me, the best part is that the shout out is for one of my favorite posts and ever present topic of conversation - Men… French vs American. Now, I would prefer that you go and read  both of the posts yourself (use the links above) but just in case, making that extra click is too much check it out:

The whole preface of this paragraph is about a woman trying to attract Australlian or French men...

" From what I hear, she’s not doing too well on attracting French ones...
Unless she want’s to inform me.us otherwise?
Perhaps she needs to take some advice from Ksam at Totally Frenched Out or Laura at The Everyday Life of a Young American Girl in France?
Or perhaps she should ask Heather at Nouvelles Adventures who asked Why are French men so irresistible in her post on Men… French vs American?

Heather is, of course, one of the three joint winners of this week’s Award for Explaining What You Should Know About France! "

So thank you Mr. Keith Eckstein for noticing my little blog and sharing it with a few others, although, as I mentioned before, I am a bit slow on noticing in this case, it is very much appreciated and I hope my man comparision will help someone out in the long run... because we all know how my French man experience worked out... or should I say didn't work out ;)
** Side note - only because I mentioned this above when reviewing my stats for the blog. Not that I expect millions of hits or even want that. I write to share with my family or friends who need a break from work and there is nothing interesting to read on MSNBC or CNN (hehe) and could be wondering what I am up to. But mostly I write for me, because when this whole experience is over I want to be able to remember every dance with a pompier on the 14th of July, every strike I sat through on the metro, every heartbreak, every experience and well just everything. But please if you do read, feel free to comment and share, I sort of look forward to the thought that someone will!!

Parlez-moi !!!!! (Talk to Me!!!!)

Alright - I am assuming you all enjoy reading what I write, because you come back, or maybe you feel like you have to rad it to stay caught up. Either way I want to read what you have to write back to me. Maybe that was too many "read" and "writes"'s in one sentence but I think you catch my drift. Leave me some feedback. Try and be relatively kind, but, really I want to know what you think. So to help guide you in this process, I found some great instructions (If you want more detail go to the Blogger Help Guide) Please take a peek then PARLEZ-MOI PEOPLE!!!

EASY TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS:
If someone has comments enabled on his or her blog, then you can usually find a "comments" link at the end of each post, like this:



CLICK THE COMMENT LINK!!!!!!!!

If you click this link, you will go to the comment posting page.  The comment posting page looks like this:



In the upper left corner, there is an option to show or hide the original blog post that the comments relate to. The rest of the left-hand column contains any comments that have already been made. The profile photos of the comment authors may also display, depending on the blog's settings.On the right hand side of the page is the space for you to enter your comment. Beneath that are the identity options. (Some of these may not be available, depending on the blog's settings.)
The options are these:
•Blogger username: Your display name will appear, along with a link to your profile and your photo (if you have one).

•Other: You can enter your name and a link to your website, without having to have a Blogger account.

•Anonymous: No identifying information is displayed. The comment is credited to "Anonymous" without a link.

Once you have spilled the beans and clicked the Post Comment button
