Sweet As Candy

Sweet As Candy, originally uploaded by Paris Set Me Free.

This beautiful ceramic shop wall sign from times gone by tried to
tempt you in with the promise of 'Dragées' and 'Chocolats' (sweets and
chocolates).

You can still go in and buy kiddy-targeted stuff, but now it's over-
priced children's clothes that are on offer.

Actually, some of their prices aren't too bad, but when you see a pair
of mini-mini Converse or Nike trainers for €50 that are going to last
three weeks and be worn once you start thinking the world's going
nuts! Then your wife tells you she's just bought some.. ;-)
