R&G|MAGAZINE EDITION #4 - NOVEMBER 2014 | Page 4

I miss the smell of rain as I snuggle up and watch my favourite series with a huge cup of coffee and cookies! Ah - November brings with it a nostalgic feeling of bliss and serenity as well as anticipation for the festive celebrations in December! It’s hard to resist going through the whole month without a HUGE smile - YES, we are one month away from the New Year! If anything, November is the bearer of hope that fun and exciting times lay ahead! This is the month you’re able to dwell on the past months and wonder why they’ve gone so fast! You possibly met new friends, experienced new emotions, made achievements in both your personal and business life; and the best part is you have a brighter and new year waiting ahead! November ushers forward all these wonderful and also scary thoughts and, frankly, we love it for that! It’s the stop before the train-ride - a train ride into a new year! Apart from the epiphany November brings, we can also enjoy preparing for the holidays, letting off some steam through fun parties and reunions with family and friends. Are you big on hosting? We have a wonderful article on family meals (PG 32)! Dreading the mud that comes with the rainy season? Check page 5 to see how you can rock wellies and still look chic!
