Emily In Prague?

So there we were, walking down the street, minding our own business, when again there pop up the bright lights, heavy electrical cables, trucks and vans for hauling equipment and props, a portable generator, a catering truck, lots of busy serious youngish people toiling about, and...boxes of Christmas ornaments and a mound of freshly cut Christmas trees. Interestingly, the storefront where all this is happening has been re-signed as a "librairie...papeterie." (A combination unlikely to exist in France: a papeterie is a stationery store; might have popular magazines, but few or no books; a librairie is a bookstore.) Our default interpretation of these kinds of occurrences always jumps to Emily in Paris (for laughs)and so we infer that it is Christmas-time in Paris, and Emily is meeting/has met her paramour du jour in said librairie/papeterie. Vicki has read that the French occasionally do Paris scenes in Prague because there is so much art nouveau here. Or possibly it is the Emily's little sister spin-off, Priscilla in Prague. Stay tuned.
