Noteworthy

Having spent a week and a half in Paris, I feel at liberty to shed light on some stereotypes of the French.

1. French kids are better behaved than American kids.

Yeah right. I'd like a word with the woman who wrote Bringing up Bebe. Rest assured, French kids are just as difficult to get into the bath as American kids. I would know.

2. French kids eat everything.

Le Petit eats nothing but chocolate and hates fruit. So.

3. French women don't get fat.

They do.

4. Parisians are always chic.

Not all Parisians. Just most Parisians.

5. All Parisians smoke.

Okay this one might be true.

And there you have it folks, the truth about the French. Parisians! They're just like us!
