Bonjour mes amis!
You may think from the title that I'm complaining about a bad smell, but oh no. Right now someone in my building is cooking something that smells HEAVENLY. I mean, this is reason enough to introduce myself to everyone within "smelling distance," it smells just that good. I don't know what it is except that it smells particularly French and rich. I imagine cream and wine as ingredients...herbs too although I can't say which ones. Seriously, the smell is amazing. I am inhaling...deeply. Over and over. Mmmm...
So, today I'm grateful for:
1) this amazingly wonderful smell and the fact that every time someone in my building cooks it smells this good
2) the fact that even though I don't know how to cook these wonderful things, I manage to enjoy some pretty amazing food in this city
3) a nice relaxing Saturday
4) fresh laundry--all caught up
5) my pink cashmere cardigan that keeps me warm and toasty in spite of a few little holes
And you?
bisous!
