Visual Diary november

Time seems to fly, It's allready november and before we know it we'll be celibrating Christmas and new years eve. Time for another slideshow of my life the last couple of weeks.

 No matter how much I eat, I'll always reserve a little space for desert. So after the kitchen staff leaves at work I can practise my pastry chef skills. And judging by this perfect recreation of chocolate-caramel trifle I think I could easily work in the kitchen.

Visiting an art show, where a group of street artists locked themselves up for 24 hours and painted everything, from furniture to walls and floors. Though I wouldn't want my living room looking like this it was pretty cool and all items were being sold for a good cause.

I'm obviously being spoiled by my way too sweet boyfriend, who probably had to join the clochards in Paris after he bought me presents at Chanel and Guerlain. ;) don't know what I did to deserve that
'When in Paris... '  According to the saying I should probably go out and seize the day, but Inspired by this book (The woman who went to bed for a year) I stayed in bed to read and enjoy my glass of vin rouge and a freshly baked baguette, which was still warm.

 At the Galeries Lafayette they are allready in the Christmas spirit. The millions of lights and chrystals were so magical that I almosst forgot I first have to concentrate on buying presents and writings poems for my other favourite holliday; Sinterklaas!
I'm sorry Sint! but look at that fabulous Swarovski tree!

After I drooled over macarons from famous patissier LaDuree for allmost two years, I discovered that the macarons, made by Pierre Hermé are even more refined and delicious! And of course more expensive, but hey.. 'When in Paris...'  ;)

Allthough it's allmost impossible to choose between all the intoxicating flavours like: Olive Oil and mandarin, blueberry and violette, Or chocolate and passionfruit.. I have found my favourite so far...  It's a white truffle macaron!! amazing... 

And I just found out I'll have to start planning my next trip to Paris soon, because of course I can't miss out on the christmas special:  Figue and foi gras!
