"Nipples on canvas, nipples on stone, nipples on panels, nipples on bone." I thought you were quoting a passage from "Dr. Seuss After Dark" for a second. In a perfect world, a Parisian reader stumbles across this, knows Julien, and in a year you're reporting to us from his next birthday party.

Oh please oh please! I’m putting that out into the universe now! Also Dr Seuss after dark is exactly what I didn’t know I needed!

I think it's what we all didn't know we needed!

The “butts and nuts” theme is brilliant. I have an 11 y/o boy and all he talks about are balls and farts and I am going to frame everything in a “butts and nuts” perspective from now on. Guaranteed engagement. Love it!

You really went all in on the chocolate buying, good for you. Did you have a favourite aside from the Lion?

This was so fun and funny. I don’t even need a photo of Julien. I can picture him perfectly. Very French. What a great trip. Welcome home. 🥰

Thank you!!! Ok, curious. How do you picture Julien? We all see him differently in the family.

Ash brown hair with a slight wave and cut so that it dips over one eye causing him to fling his head back which has become a habit. Pointed nose. Perfect eye brows that would have made Brooke Shields jealous. Light brown or green eyes and when he smiles his teeth can be a flash light in a storm. Hehe. And of course he smokes.

How did you picture him?

Ooh your Julien is pretty hot! I should have gotten him that card! 😂 I see a well-dressed grown up Herbie the Dentist from Rudolph. Def a smoker with a pointy nose.
