This is the first time in the 6 years since I moved to France that I am really happy about Christmas coming because I’ll actually have family over for a few days and I am not going to be alone again. It was planned all last minute so there isn’t much time for preparations, but there will be a christmassy tablesetting and a few holiday decorations at my place. I like to think we are all fortunate to have everything we need already, but there are things that could inspire us even more and bring more cosiness into our lives. Here are a few things on my shopping list.
