My birthday month falls at the beginning of Spring, plus I love the energy of all the people out and about, the sunshine, and all the blossoms on the trees and flowers sprouting from the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am typically in Paris for spring and I love seeing the city covered in pink blossoms. I am excited to be back for my first spring in a few years. If you can&#8217;t make it to Paris, you can use these fun tips to bring a little of France into your lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-change-your-bed-linens\">Change Your Bed Linens<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that the weather is much warmer, you can ditch the heavy comforter for a lighter linen duvet or waffle blanket. I love my <a href=\"https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+8IWLgnna09Z8FVoq78HUJA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>waffle blanket from Boll and Branch<\/strong><\/a> and it is currently on my bed. The texture on the skin is so nice, especially in the warmer months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Paris,<a href=\"https:\/\/merci-merci.com\/en\/collections\/linge-en-lin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong> Merci sells a beautiful colorful assortment of linen bedding<\/strong><\/a>.

These are lovely and fun additions that can be enjoyed indoors or outdoors for a picnic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Spring, I like to make a brunch board on the weekends to pair with a glass of bubbly or a French 75 &#8212; my favorite cocktail to pair with cheese. It smells and tastes like spring-like fresh herbs and citrus, with a generous splash of Champagne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In France, Spring is goat cheese season, and if you visit Paris cheese shops you&#8217;ll find bountiful goat cheeses from the Loire Valley &#8212; one of France&#8217;s most lush pasture areas. At this moment, those pastures are sprouting tender grasses and tiny wildflowers &#8212; a delicate feast for the area&#8217;s native goats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not a goat cheese fan? You might want to try a Loire Valley goat cheese anyway &#8212; they are the gold standard of goat cheeses (think: fresh, delicate, supple). Alongside honey, lemon curd rose jelly or fresh berries, they are transformative and will make you feel like you are enjoying an authentic French breakfast or brunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a second soft cheese, look for a French &#8220;bloomy&#8221; &#8212; the name for Brie-like cheeses that sport velvety rinds. The French have perfected this style, and they&#8217;re wonderful cheeses to pair with cherry or raspberry jam, a good baguette, and a handful of walnuts or pistachios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/everydayparisian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/img_60771ba527f08.jpg\" alt=\"frenchify your cheese board everyday parisian\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Classic French Goat Cheeses to Try<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Selles-sur-Cher<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Valen\u00e7ay<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saint-Maure de Touraine<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crottin de Chavignol<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Substitutes: Can&#8217;t find these?
