Philly Bee's Blog: Dreaming my days away

You know those times where you just dream of being somewhere else? Maybe somewhere you've been before, maybe somewhere that is a mix of all your favourite places or maybe somewhere that only exists in your dreams. Somewhere where the sun is shining, a cool breeze is flowing through the trees, people are happy and the air smells of summer?!
Well I'm having those times a LOT at the moment.

Having spent all of last Summer in Europe I have had a few withdrawl symptoms which mostly are down to amazing food, good atmosphere and beautiful weather- which my life is lacking in a little at the moment.
Along with having spent nearly every summer holiday growing up in France I get times where all I want to do is sit in a pretty cobble street courtyard in France with flowers, a church, a lady in fur with a poodle walking by and most importantly some great food.
The view from the windows at work are also looking onto a little courtyard cafe which in the sunshine is really inticing but it definitely isn't the same and is always lacking in French appeal, bicycles, sailor stripes and deck shoes.
Luckily I am off to France for a long weekend next weekend with some of my bestests so I will be able to settle my dreams for a while!

(I'm also trying to go easy on the carbs but they just come back to haunt me) so amongst my cobble streets I am picturing croissants, pain au chocolat and patisseries along with a big hot chocolate. Then wine and seafood for dinner of course!
