I can't tell you how much I often find myself thinking these words to myself when I wake up.  Breakfast is France is beautiful.
To begin with, the bread is wonderful.  It is all crackly crusts and light, airy interiors.  A short walk in the morning and about one euro later, you can have in your hand a delightfully warm, fresh-from-the-oven baguette.  Heavenly. 
Breakfast also involves delicately sweet confitures and the best butter you'll taste in the world.  France is the only place in the world where I would ever butter my bread.
Plus, pâté.  Oh pâté.  I love it.  Smooth pâté de foie.  Or mousse de canard.  Or terrine de lapin.  All these delicious things that you’d never find in the states.  And if you do, it’s a sad imitation of the wonders you can get in France.
I miss breakfast in France.
