Maca Cacao Hot Chocolate

Who dosen’t need some comfort food once in a while ? Well I know life wouldn’t be as sweet without it 🙂 .
I’ve always been a big fan of hot chocolate as a little girl, and even now I still have a cup of hot cocoa once in a while. Reminds me of snowy winters cuddling up near the fireplace in the countryside while reading a good book or playing board games. It’s also one of my favorite Sunday morning beverages, for brunch or just for lazy sundays binge watching shows on the couch (oh don’t act like you don’t do it too 😉 ).

The thing with hot chocolate is it’s often full of calories, and for those who are lactose intolerant or just try not to drink too much milk for health reasons it’s not very diet-compatible. I guess…

This week I’m starting off as healthy as possible. You see, I’m off to London in two days for one of my BFF’s big 3-0 and you can be sure that I will be pigging out and celebrating with a fews drinks throughout the trip 😉 .

Every time I go to London I always have to have Indian food (cliché I know) and some of my favorite donuts that I can’t find in Paris, I’m also really excited to have some gluten free cupcakes from this one shop, and oh yeah tea and scones of course … basically a bunch of things that are not good for my body! 😉 But if you can’t let loose while on vacation what’s the point?! Even if it stresses me out a little bit that I’m going to be bloating and probably will gain some…

Well hello again! It sure has been a while, sorry about that ! 🙂 I’ve just been way too busy enjoying this amazing summer we’re having 😉 . The weather has been glorious since May, I’ve been off to weekend getaways here and there, celebrating birthdays and weddings. Life is treating me pretty well I’d say.

Like every year, we are going through our heatwave of the summer. Living in Paris during a heatwave – with no A/C – is pretty much a nightmare. Pools are packed and are no fun, unless you enjoy being glued to a zillion people in a public pool (yeahh no thanks), everyone is fighting for a spot outdoors in restaurants, nobody’s having a full night’s sleep because it’s so hot, and let’s not even talk about public transportation…. But we loveeee it ! It’s just so rare…

Honey Matcha Latte

I’ve been obsessed with Matcha tea for a few months now. I first tasted it when I was on vacation in Maine last summer. It was an amazing experience that I will never forget. We had been road tripping through New England for a few days, and were meeting up with family in a country house in Maine.
Before arriving at our destination, we stopped for one night in Portland, Maine. First let me just say, what a beautiful seaside city.
I was pooped by all the walking we had been doing the past few days, and felt like getting a massage. The hotel we stayed in got me an appointement in this cute little foot massage and teahouse called ‘Soakology’. It wasn’t just any foot massage, they have a really original and soothing ritual like I’d never seen before. What’s cool is…
