The garden

 


After looking at the leeks, I started walking to where I planted the onions and garlic. Stopping every now and then to inspect the ripening chili peppers and roses by the wall. Passing the area where my husband put the net for volleyball, I thought of creating a new patch for vegetables this spring. 


Then, at last, navigating to a somewhat slippery slope, I arrived where the onions are. Tucked under a very tall pear tree. They thrive. I only hope that they survive the slugs.

The garlic is doing great as well. But this is not only about the onions and garlic. This morning routine is about adding endorphins, serotonin, etc to my well-being. That simple walk around the garden adds joy to my life. But wait, I haven't told you about our chickens. Well, that's for another day.

I hope that this morning you have done something to add joy to your life. A routine that makes you look forward to a new and exciting day.

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
