Croissant, Cafe au Lait, David Lebovitz Sweet Life in Paris Paperback Contest

February 25, 2011 by serge the concierge

After a lull on the weekly contest front, Broadway Books was kind enough to offer us 3 paperback copies of The Sweet Life in Paris by David Lebovitz to giveaway as paperback edition is about to be published on March 1, 2011.

Browsing through it reminded me that my mother frowns on shorts and sneakers worn together unless you are in the middle of sport practice.

Combining life's little annoyances, French etiquette and recipes with a healthy dose of humor, The Sweet Life in Paris if nothing else will clear clouds in the sky on a grey day and put a smile on your face.

Getting back to the Contest at Hand, here's how you can we win one of the 3 copies in this giveaway. Answer the following question.

What is the easiest thing to take care of in Paris out of these 3:

-Get rid of roaches?

-Have the house painter complete his job and leave?

-Open a bank account?

E-mail your answers to info [at] njconcierges [dot] com

All entries must be received by Thursday, March 2, 2011 at 2 PM (US Eastern Central)

Contest is on a first come, first serve basis.

(* This contest is opened to US readers only)
