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 when you get 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.

Saint Hubertus Gallery
I love to shop! This glass roofed arcade was built in 1847. It was the first shopping arcade in Europe. It consists of two major parts called Galerie du Roy (King's Gallery) and Galerie de la Reine (Queen's Gallery); and a smaller section called Galerie du Prince (Prince's Gallery).

This shopping arcade is lined with lots of luxury shops, cafes, some restaurants, a theatre and a cinema.




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.
