it was Stella(r)


Stella's visit was pretty spectacular. She was here for five days, during which we walked, talked, sipped, nibbled, giggled, tried to work out some of the great mysteries in life (topics included: "why men are a**holes" and "what's in store for 2012 and beyond?") and successfully crowned one chocolatier king above all the rest during an extensive chocolate tasting experiment (more on that later)...

We spent Friday exploring Antwerp, popping in and out of vintage shops, warming up with cappuccinos (and cupcakes) in cafes, and taking in the sights...

We went out, we stayed in, we played games and drank champagne...





I'll share some more highlights throughout the week, as I slowly detox and recover from this chocolate and champagne coma...


We had a fabulous time and loved having you here, Stella! Come back when the weather is nice so we could sip champagne at outdoor cafes and people watch over cappuccinos....
