I think I’ve read this post half a dozen times now (take me baaack) and just realized I’ve never left a comment. Anyway. I will never forget the look on your face when we walked out of Gare du Nord. NEVER. And I’m so happy you got to see Monet’s work – rather, that I convinced you that you had “more than enough” time to see it even though I really wasn’t sure but knew how bad you wanted to see those damn lilies. 😉 Over-the-moon thankful to know you and to have gotten the opportunity to spend six magical days with you. Let’s do it again soon, OK? Hugs, lady.

I cried seeing Monet’s paintings, too. There’s just…something about them. Especially in that setting. Wondrous.

Such a mega fan of this post (the photos!) because I ALSO feel like Brené and I are on a first name basis. There is such a tendency to let guilt and worry ride along with joy. In the age of notifications and everything else that’s all up in our face, it can be really hard to just purely feel and marinate yourself in the moment. Meditation has helped me with this personally, but so has not giving a you-know-what to other people’s thoughts.

Gonna make a version of this with avocado instead of butter so, so soon 😀

You are so sweet. Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. I really appreciate it. It’s hard to please everyone – so I don’t even try. I’ll just keep on doing what feels right to me and hopefully there’s enough people who are into it that I can keep going.

Kristan, You are going to LOVE it. Rising Strong has been so powerful for me. I’m excited to connect with you soon and talk more about this away from the computer.

Hey Lyndy, I totally respect people’s time and am happy if people want to skip the narrative and images and zoom right to the recipe. That’s why at the top of the post there’s a tab that says “recipe” and it will zip you right to the bottom so you only have to see the recipe.

too much travelogue, not enough recipe. everybody doesn’t have time to read long beautiful posts when they might be in a hurry for a recipe.

Ashley, I absolutely love the way you write. I really appreciate everything you said in this post because I feel like I can identify with a lot of it. I am so glad that Brené’s book was able to bring a change in the way you were experience this incredible trip. I am going to have to check her book out right away.

Thank you for your vulnerability.

I’m actually drooling over all of these photos, Ashley! They’re just beautiful. I’m a sucker for radish toast-y kind of things and the addition of lime (so surprising!) sounds amazing.

Also, I wanted to comment on the joy part of this write up. I cannot tell you how much I have experienced that feeling of, “Oh I can’t enjoy this too much. The other shoe is about to drop any minute, I just know it.” But you’re so right when you say,

“Never fully experiencing joy will not keep us from suffering.”

It’s something I’ve been working on for years, literally years. Feeling joy will not induce pain. Such a simple concept but so true.

Thank you for always posting such thoughtful, real write ups. Every time I stop by your space, see your recipes and photos, read your words, I’m consistently reminded of why I started blogging in the first place. Thank you <3

Ashley, your words on joy are spot on. You’ve articulated this so wonderfully and have put words to feelings I have not been able to recognize myself.

Thanks for sharing your trip, the yummy recipes, and the fun. Years ago I titled my blog “Why Not?” because it made sense to me– we only get a certain amount of time here, so what possible reason could anyone have NOT to embrace all the joy they find? Love your blog.

The photos are the proof of your excellent trip. Awesome photos. The finishing of the article with radish dish is superb.

Ashley, I’m covered in goosebumps reading this post because these are exactly the words I needed to hear.

I too feel beyond blessed to have the life I do, and constantly worry that something terrible is going to happen to change that. It was inspiring to hear that you’re breaking free of squashing your joy, and instead are going to live raw and in the moment.

I’m vowing to do the same (and to make these tartines!), and so appreciate you sharing this. Thank you and I hope you had an amazing trip!

Best,
Hailey
