Ever get the feeling that you would be so much happier somewhere else? Like when the frost covers your window, the dogs hide from the howling wind, cold creeps into your fingers, brain, bones?
Or maybe it is just that your house is too crowded, no room to think, people at every turn....
We all dream of going to a far off land, as much to discover new adventures as to escape the same ole' same ole'.
I can't guarantee that these exotic destinations will free you from what ails you, but it sure is nice to think about the great escape. New lands, new people, new foods.

Great post Natashya--makes me want to go on vacation. I have my recipe picked out for this one and can't wait to make it. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post that is filled with so many beautiful pictures :D I've got my computer back up and running again and will have fun thinking of a post for this week's theme!
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I am having such a hard time with this cooking challenge! I can never get my stuff made in time. I made her pot pie to go with something and by the time I'd posted it, you were already on another theme!
ReplyDeleteI love this one! I think I'll go for the crab salad...that might make me think of the tropics more. And that is where I'd love to be now!
ReplyDeleteTruly exotic Natashya...am so inspired with ur lovely pics...beautifull

Wow! I could use an exotic getaway right now. Especially since they are forecasting more snow and colder temps! An added bonus -- I can make something out of the new Nigella cookbook I got for Christmas and haven't used yet! :-)
ReplyDeleteYay for new Nigella cookbooks! Great to have you cooking with us, Teresa!
