Robert Frost is good stuff. Good luck finding the ground cloves (you're certainly going to find a lot of nice spices in those shops), and as for the French, you live in Paris so I'm sure it'll only get better and better :-)Hopiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13753084404615138779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1368979615362574679.post-24608984279309631012008-12-07T09:24:00.000+01:002008-12-07T09:24:00.000+01:00Thanks, Hopie, I'll try those stores.

Yes, I used to be able to get ground cloves in the supermarkets, here in the Yvelines area, but they don't seem to have them any more. <BR/>Stopping by... reminds me of Robert Frost's poem, "Stopping by woods on a snowy evening"... and I took the path less travelled by... <BR/>Horrors of horrors, I just saw another terrible typo I made there... I had meant "humour" not "humeur" alalalala. Guess I'm not quite "French" yet!<BR/>All this, to say you should try your hand at writing, if you haven't already.

It's true that it's easier to find whole cloves here than ground ones, but I find ground cloves sometimes in the supermarket (monoprix). Otherwise perhaps one of the Indian grocery stores in Paris would have it. There are a bunch near Gare du Nord. I've been to one called Cash & Carry, which is very good.Hopiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13753084404615138779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1368979615362574679.post-70712274897357300392008-12-03T12:13:00.000+01:002008-12-03T12:13:00.000+01:00HI Hopie!

What a fun blog to fall accross this morning. <BR/>I was looking for a place to buy groud cloves ( how funny that your blog popped up when I googled clous de girofle moulu paris....). I enjoyed reading your profile and comments - quel sens de l'humeur.<BR/>Well, "Life is a Stage" as ol' Will used to say, and I see you are already an actress in it (oops, that was "the whole word is a stage", sorry).<BR/>Marie in Paris<BR/>PS but where oh where can one buy ground cloves in this lovely land? (Paris, ou La Défense)?

Each language brings a different way of thinking I guess.
