Souvenir

As we were leaving Paris it seems our friends (whom we knew for a short

while) has to give something as a memento. Gifts were extravagant and

really worth mentioning as they chose something which we adore.

To start with gift Pamela got from François is very special. I am sure

she can write a new post about the same. I am just going to give you

brief detail on the same.

It is stitching project (cross-stitch) with 290 x 359 stitches using 70

color threads. François not only gave the design print-out along with

instructions but also got the black piece of cloth which is not that

easily available in the market.

If cross-stitch is not your cup of tea and you prefer coffee like me.

Check her [project to be

started](http://www.goldenkitestore.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=239_206_1_8&products_id=2609)

. It is going to be a very long and difficult project to finish.

Hopefully, Pamela takes enough time as well as break in-between

otherwise it will cost her eyes ;).Not only this, she even got bedside

lamp of effiel tower & salwar-kurta from two of her close

friends.

And now my turn, gift from my dear colleagues was all about Paris

and Langue Francais. Best of all I liked the wrapping for the

wonderful [book on photography of

Paris](http://www.amazon.ca/Paris-Lights-%E9dition-anglaise-Tocqueville/dp/2866653734).

I am sure it must have got lots of curious look from others while

getting packed. On the flight there was a nice one page article about

POST-IT how it was

invented in 3M and how it waited for long time before marketed and sold

to customers. I really can not think my office days without it like

millions others across the globe.

Thanks a lot guys if you are reading it !! Well there will be more post

on those last hours … keep reading.
