Not Just for Breakfast...

Today we are going to Belgium...
No travel plans necessary - just hang on and enjoy the ride!

Sink your teeth into one of these sugary delights, and you'll be hooked for life!  Belgium waffles are tasty treats that need no syrup - no butter and are not eaten at breakfast.  They are delicious any time of the day! While I was living in Europe, I would travel to Belgium once or twice a month.  Let me tell you - it's not a country you go to and expect your bathroom scale to drop upon your return home.  Noooo!  Belgium is  a country that eats and eats well!  The food is out of this world, and the cold weather and gray skies make comfort food even more tempting.  Lucky for me I never stayed more then a week at a time.  But, I have thought about moving there more then once.

I am 5'9", wear a size 10 shoe,  and a size 10 dress.  Let's just say this - I am never mistaken for a tourist!  Most European women are small - very small - and wear size Zero on a bad day.  Belgian women are statuesque, confident, educated, and well spoken - like me!  I can walk into any shop and find my shoe and dress size and feel 'normal' not gigantic!  That was always a nice change from having to bend down just to get into the shops in Greece, Italy and Cyprus...hey!... when in Rome girls!

Hard to imagine that this city with its dreary weather is home to some of the most up and coming artists of the day - and yet - it is!  Brussels has the best beer, restaurants, bars and brasseries in the world.  A very unpretentious city with so much old world charm and culinary delights - you forget the clouds and rain and think only of the warmth and comfort of your existence there.  I strongly recommend a trip to anyone in love with life.

Bon Voyage!
