With the mushrooms left, I made the mushroom omelet for breakfast. Juice and baguettes over the day with jam. Because the pan is deformed, fire setting is not good. No, a good cook never made the pretext of the tool for the wrong cuisine. Let’s go buy frying pan later.

Georges Brassens and the morning market
I’m surprised. There is the Parc Georges Brassens in such close proximity.
I like Brassens as I used his song as an iPhone ringtone. In the 1950s and 1960s, popular French songs in Japan were those of Edith Piaf, Yves Montand, Juliette Greco,etc. Apart from these popular songs, there was secretly popularity Brassens and songs of gauloiserie. He sang the poems of François Villon, Pierre Corneille, Alfred de Musset, Victor Hugo, Paul Verlaine and Louis Aragon, composing himself music. Not to mention the French Georges Brassens site, but also the site named “Japan Georges Brassens complete collection" is worthy of reference. (to be continued…)

I used “les copains d’abord " ( friends first) as a standby song for the iPhone.
Why they gave the name of Brassens to this park? To know look at the French Wikipedia.
Totally redesigned in the 1980s by architects Alexandre Ghiulamila and Jean-Michel Milliex with the landscaper Collin Daniel2,the park was opened to the public in 1985.
If he is named “Georges Brassens park," c ' is a tribute to Georges Brassens, poet singer-songwriter French,who lived most of his life in Paris a few hundred meters from the site, at 9 impasse Florimont (14th),then at 42, rue Santos-Dumont (15th).
I see. So I understood the reason why there is a park with his name here. The two addresses are not only far from our apartment a few hundred meters.This is also a destiny. This personality Brassens, singer-songwriter and poet at the same time can not be found in Japan. Comme the poet, young bard dominant, called François Villon, poet thief 15th century through the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, Brassens reborn according to the poetic tradition of France in our time. It goes without saying that Dazai Osamu likened Otani, heroes to Villon in the short history of“the wife of Villon." You can buy a CD or iTunes even in Japan, hear his song and enjoy the virile man of Gargantua and Pantagruel by François Rabelais.
Parc Georges Brassens
I went to the morning market just a short walk from the Brassens Park. The market is my favorite place, Farmer’s Market in the United States, of course, the splendor of the public market of Versailles in France, the market is the most familiar place to know the people of the vitality of the country. However, this market is by temporary tents on the sidewalk along not quite charming shops to visit, I bought only 1 kg of cherries. I bought a white butcher ham (sort of ham which is also manufactured in Japan), raw ham, roasted chicken and potatoes at a stand unrelated to the market. I chatted with the people of the store and then went home. They were really cheerful clerks.

Also I bought way back bread and brioche and lightning and “religieuse” at the bakery called Gâteau battu. It was a great queue store. According to Wikipedia in French, it is now made around the corner, but it was once said that it was a special product of Somme Department, especially Abbeville County, among others.
The Gâteau battu is a specialty of the Somme and in particular the Abbeville area even if manufactured today throughout the department.
It is a kind of bun brown crust, rich in butter and eggs, the dough a golden yellow very convoluted is more airy and moist than traditional bun. Gastronomic symbol of maritime Picardy, this recognizable shape in baking chef’s hat was originally dessert days of traditional celebrations. The abundance of butter and eggs of this cake contrasted so sharply with the difficult seasons in which rural people were skinny.
The history of Gâteau battu (Beaten Cake) is ancient, although it is difficult to date precisely the appearance of this specialty.
In 1653, now named “Gasteau calf" and “Mollet Cake" or “Bread eggs" by the Flemish, the ancestor of cake Beaten included existing ingredients already had the specificity to contain a very high proportion of egg yolks and butter.
It was not until the early twentieth century, the gastronomes such Croze or Curnonsky, désignèrent recipe as Picardy specialty, Picardy and the identity of the cake was affirmed.
Today it is recognized as a regional specialty, defended and promoted by The Noble Brotherhood Beaten Cake since 1993. He became gluttony associated with village festivals as well as large family celebrations.

Commentary and Table of Contents
In Japan, Paris is obviously popular as a tourist destination. Fashion brand products, cuisine and world heritage, all equipped. Besides the buildings and streets are also attractive. Speaking of Europe for a tourist trip, Paris is the first city needed to route.
Such is it’s face on one side, but Paris shows a different look after the stay. Although such a Paris, when you stay for a while it shows a different expression than the one that is watching the cityscape and historical monuments with rush. First of all, there are many people who disappointed in French, Parisians and Parisienne’s cold treats, resentful at the arrogance of staffs of national railway stations and department stores, or disliked France at all. In addition, there are many people who are scared of sneezing, snatching and gypsy begging.
The author once taught French, but since he became a retirement age, he decided to borrow an apartment in Paris for three weeks in Paris for the first time in a while. This book I wrote with thought that through the daily experiences of the authors and couples I tried to live everyday life, he would like to be helpful for those who wish to go to Paris from now on and those who would like to stay for a while.
