Bon Jour

Bonjour fellow travelers; today we leave amazing Aberdeen and the letter A for the time being and head over to the capital city of Brussels in Belgium. (You thought we were going to somewhere in France? Another time.
I wonder if we can get some Brussel sprouts while we are here? Yes, I have no doubt we can. Perhaps from the Bon Bon eatery – they have vegetarian options on the menu and have some rave reviews. Maybe the name of the vegetable came from its popularity in this part of the world. Legend has it that that may be true. I like them steamed with butter or roasted with olive oil, black pepper and sea salt; then tossed with parmesan cheese prior to serving.

Biscuits are yummy too; in America they refer to them as cookies.  McVities Ginger Nuts are the best and Garibaldis as well as Jaffa Cakes.

Books = one of my favorite things.  My most favorite authors are J. K. Rowling, Richard Bach, and Richard Lederer.

Board games = I love playing them especially Monopoly, Scrabble, Baker Street, The Garden Game, and Steal the Crown Jewels as well as Ticket to Ride.

For inspirational music – how about Blowin’ in the Wind.  It was written by Bob Dylan in 1962.

Our positive B words today – beauty, bright, blessed.  This reminds me of a prayer/ affirmation I use – thankful, grateful, blessed.

Have a beautiful day all.
