Aisles of heart-shaped candy boxes and flowery cards on January second may seem like a slap in the face for Americans who'd been hoping to stave off sweets and codependency for at least the first week of the New Year.But faded door wreaths and garish strands of street lights in mid-January don't exactly inspire bold resolutions either. Christmas has come and gone, and the French seem content with leftover winter cheer. Maybe flakey galette and soldes racks are enough to get through January's grisaille?
