Its that time again when La Mom reflects on the year gone by and is looking forward to the coming year. In honor of lanne 2010, here are my Frenchified New Year resolutions.

One. Take abeginners French class.

That’s’s right, its back to basics French 101. My French pals have declared war on my incorrect use of Le and La and they assert that after 10 years here I should speak perfect French.

I say lets not get too picky - my message gets across despite these petite mistakes. When they stop pronouncing high end as high hand, then ill take ‘em seriously.

two. Learn the way to cook French food.

I believe Big Cheese is bored with Tex Mex and frozen French food from Picard judging by the christmas present he gave me this year : French Cooking for Dummies.

3. Learn the different French baguettes.

Im tired of getting corrected by giant Fry at the boulangerie when I order an easy baguette and he tells the baker, make sure its a traditional baguette and not so cooked, please. you’ll be able to find the best one just near to appartement Montmartre

four. Shop faster.

I realized I havent been hitting the boutiques enough when I spent last Monday shopping ALL day and couldnt buy anything I liked because my Parisianista fashion expert manager already has the same stuff!

five. Carry a pocket dictionary.

To whip out when Big Fry uses words like puisque. Gone are the times when I accepted all his French : La voiture goes vite, mommy.

six. Think like the French its all about the wine.

A Frenchie emailed his holiday wishes and concluded with, Il faut sefforcer dtre jeune comme un Beaujolais et de vieillir comme un Bourgogne ( Try your hardest to stay young like a Beaujolais wine and grow old like a Bourgogne wine ).

7. Stay in Paris

if you need to stay in this pretty town you have got to look for good place to stay, like location appartement Montmartre
