These are the most important love lessons I learned

He knocked on my university dorm room, I was studying wearing the ugliest 10 years old joggers, you know, the ones you would never be caught dead in but are perfectly worn out and comfy.  Even my family had tried to throw them out after doing the laundry…yep, it was bad. I shouldn’t have opened the door but I was curious, who in the world wanted to talk to me today, I was in my dorm room studying.  It was him.  I did not know him yet, nor did I know the love we would have, nor the emotions and pain we would experience together and apart. 

If you had asked me when I was in high school, which guy I wanted to spend my life with, never in a million years would I have imagined him.  I didn’t even know his country existed…Tunisia, (yep you can check the world map, I did, like I’m certain most of my family and friends have too) or knew nothing about his culture. So you can imagine the acceptance, understanding and growing pains we both endured along our path.

All this to say that sometimes you don’t really realize how you are living, until, you meet someone who is totally different then you who pushes you outside your comfort zone and makes you understand some important love lessons.

A chocolate dinner & my favorite dessert restaurant

If you had to choose between eating a nutella filled crepe or a melted chocolate filled crêpe, which one would you prefer to eat???  If chocolate is your first choice then you are my kind of person!

No matter where I am located (traveling or at home), I am always on the lookout for amazing dessert places.  Chocolate is almost always my preference but not your taste like chocolate but is only cocoa powder or taste like chocolate but is a water based chocolate syrup wannabe dessert.  I like the real deal, the dark chocolate, slightly bitter taste mixed with nuts or fruits, mmmmm!

When February rolls around, I tend to want chocolate even more.  Ever since moving to Montreal over a decade ago, Juliette et Chocolat has become my go-to place for dessert cravings and light lunches.  You basically go there to eat chocolate for brunch, lunch or dinner.  I am happy to say that I’ve probably tried almost everything on the menu.  So naturally, I planned on going with my little family closer to Valentine’s day to get my monthly dosage of chocolate, hihi…
