Paris - Oldest Bakery closes!

After 202 years, the oldest bakery in Paris has closed due to skyrocketing rent! My heart goes out to Parisians who are lamenting the loss of this historic landmark. When I first heard of this, it just reminded me how increasingly commercial modern life has become. Cherish these old style bakeries; we will miss them when they are all gone and replaced with commercial shops churning out breads made in factories. It just won’t be the same.
