"You're bored!!" This was what a friend told me when I asked her something about knitting. I have recently learned how to knit and would like to make a poncho for Karen. Some project for a beginner like me, you might say, but I don't want to just stick on making scarf. This also applies to my current status:stay-at-home mom/wife. Being a stay-at-home mother isn't the be all and end all. It's an experience which for me open up so many things, no financial rewards that's for sure but I have got to try so many things which made me realized my capabilities. Of course, I have dreamed of doing this and that, earning this amount, wearing the latest fashion,etc. However, circumstances led me to where I am now because I also dreamnt of one day being a wife,of having children,of having a family of my own.So now, as I live my dream--I don't want to miss the chance given to me. I want to experience it...live it wholeheartedly and without qualms.
Dijon, one of the cities in France, was the destination of our mid-week get away. The city,which is well known for its mustard,is a 3-hour train ride from Genève via Lausanne. As I've mentioned in my previous post ,this was my first time to visit the city. We arrived mid-day to a gloomy surrounding and headed to Quick, sort of Jollibee here. Yet,the real treat was in the old town. Walking on the paved street for me was like being transported to another era. Aside from Musée des Beaux-Arts Dijon, we were able to visit Cathédrale de Saint Bénigne and the Notre Dame de Dijon. However,due to time constraint we were not able to visit other places. Our evening meal was in Le Théâtre des Sens, a small but cozy restaurant and where I've tried escargot. Yes, I did and blame it on the kir! Our dinner was really good,the waiter was very cheery and accomodating. We stayed at the Hotel Des Ducs where we spent the rest of the night watching crime scene investigation. Ah! the joy of havin...
