ROMAN EGG DROP SOUP: Stracciatella all Romana

Cold season is here --so just like my new fall lipstick color - -I am embracing the soup concept in our meals. This egg drop soup is perfect for  busy working mom like me. Just boil the broth and whisk the egg with flour-cheese combo and you're good to go. Perfect for a quick light dinner with sliced bread or crackers. For some reason, hubby thought that it tastes like I placed butter - -uh-uh..maybe it's the cheese ? I love egg drop soup..but compared to the asian version I know....this is a creamy rendition.

Updating your wardrobe to meet the latest trend in fall/winter fashion can be extremely expensive! This is is the reason why I tend to keep my look as classic as possible where I can mix and match basic dress shirts/turtle necks to a staple suit ensemble and it will still look polished regardless of the season.

I have no plans of updating my clothes this winter but I need the special accessory that will go with my daily boring corporate look. Anyway, I have no reason to go to the mall but since I only wear Coco Mademoiselle to work and I am down to the last drop, my little sous chef and I decided to try  N5 and Allure to see if the fragrance will suit me. Yum! Everything smells good -- I need to have approval before I make this purchase as I want to make sure that I don't smell like like a party girl inside my daily conference room meetings.

You can never go wrong with Chanel, and our planned 5 minute trip ended up like 30 or so as I was trying gazillion colors from the newly released Rouge Allure collection on the other side of the counter - my best new find this season. I always stick to the pale brown or pink shade..but this one -- me likey!

As expected ..hubby hates the red color - -but hehehe - -I told him -- You're not in the office..so why bother?
