French treats & blogger talk

City Daily Photo bloggers Rob, North Metro Daily, and Kate, St. Paul Daily, came down to Eagan on Friday morning to meet me at "Pardon My French" Cafe' for blog chat and yummy pastries. Were your ears ringing?

what a fun group. what a fun time that must have been. those pastries look scrumptious, the fellow in the back to the right looks curious (perhaps you could have enlisted him to take a shot of all four of you), and i wish i'd been a fly on the wall (however it doesn't look as if this cafe suffers flies on the wall gladly).

Kate said...

Thanks again for the treats, Leif. It's a great place to meet and we certainly did have a terrific couple of hours together!

The Avignon bikes are called "Vélopop".
But I would have loved that they were named "Vélopape" !
So I faked the photo... !

Oh, hi Kate! Gee Leif, Eagan is becoming a mecca for out of town bloggers.
Actually I did have a rare ear ringing. It reminded me of my grandma's quoting of "Rects Ohr schlecht Ohr; links Ohr klinks Ohr."

Isn't that cool? Hi, Kate! :-)

Well Leif, your own ears might ring tonight because if all goes well I'll be meeting Carine in the evening. I'm very much looking forward to that. Cheers !

Sorry I missed this. I was in the UK when you met. Let me know when you do it again. I have had several good meals at Pardon My French with my French teacher friends.
