LONGING FOR... - JE RÊVE DE...

Since spring has arrived, I am starting to feel a strong craving for certain fruits (strawberries, apricots and prunes/plums) or vegetables (fresh garlic, asparagus, etc…) which will soon be present on our market stalls…

I also can’t wait to sit on the balcony/outside and enjoy the magnificent view, the warmth of the air, the blinding sunshine, the greenness of nature and eat some good food, sip from a glass of refreshing artisan beer (I only like the sweet Belgian kind as I’m not really a beer freak, unless it’s cooked!) or of good wine.

As the weather is quite rotten, at the moment, my longing is stronger than ever and I can’t stop daydreaming about the above-mentioned spring/summer delicacies!
