the essentials

It just snowed for the very first time here, in Brussels. I don't like to call that wet rain-like thing 'snow', but I

guess there is just no other way to describe it. The weather's been getting really cold lately, but I'm not feeling

the Christmas mood that I usually am filled with, by this time of the year. I suppose it's going to be different

this year, unless it starts snowing like hell and if winter catches up with itself. There are about nine days left

until Christmas, so it better hurry.


While waiting for that, I've repetitively been making myself cups of hot chocolate with whipped cream and

caramel on top, it's like love in a cup. So I'm currently drinking my hot chocolate, reading the December issue

of Paris Vogue and hoping for more snow.
