10 Days Of Chrismukkah: Cadeau No.10

"Stuff Parisians Like" by Olivier Magny

If you are familiar with the blog Stuff Parisians Like, you'll find this book an amusing expansion of the themes there. And if you haven't checked out the blog yet, it will be a delightful discovery. Olivier writes about the social habits of his fellow Parisiens with a uniquely French blend of derision and affection.

On our last Paris visit, we had the pleasure of meeting M. Magny at his wine bar in the heart of Paris, Ô Chateau. Is he not handsome?
No, I didn't take this one. From gqmagazine.fr
(He's just as charming as he looks, bien sur.)

If you'd like to be entered to win the book* please leave a comment below.  Many thanks to all of you who have entered over the last few days, and congratulations to those whose names were drawn.

Happy New Year to all!
