Perfect Hostess Present

While on sabbatical in Paris three years ago, I wrote about the magic of Laduree. Fortunately, Laduree is now on Madison and 70^th.  YUM!

Last week, I escaped the “New Economy” in New York and fled to Paris for a few weeks. I arrived at my hotel at noon to find that I was invited to a dinner party at the home of a couple I barely knew. My hosts were receiving at 8 that evening, and I had no idea how many guests would be attending. What to take as my hostess gift? Wine is too expected, and in France, can be really tricky. And, I thought I remembered that the hostess didn’t drink alcohol.

And then it hit me walking down the Champs Elysee! Macaroons from Laduree! I chose 32 multi-colored macaroons from the store’s flagship location (flavors including mango, pistachio, dark chocolate, orange blossom, lemon and mocha) Each cost approximately 1 Euro. The packaging for the macaroons was a treat in of itself….a peppermint green box with a pink ribbon.

Los Carpinteros

Rumba Muerta is Los Carpinteros’ first exhibition at the gallery since their acclaimed 2008 show, Montaña Rusa. The central theme in Los Carpinteros’ work is the idea of transformation. According to the artists, that transformation sometimes occurs “in the morphology and physicality of an object and at other times in its meaning, interpretation and function.” As such, Los Carpinteros allow the titles “to reveal something, a certain form of meaning or to subvert the official meaning that people attribute to things.” The title of the new exhibition, Rumba Muerta, is meant to conjure up an imaginary world evocative of the dying notes at the end of a bittersweet song.
