Not pictures of them actually sleeping, sorry folks. {Maybe-just-maybe I’m saving those for a rainy day.} The weather has been mild here in Amsterdam, compared to typical winters, which has been pretty fantastic. In fact, I have yet to see real-live-snow-falling, can you believe that? We’ve definitely been taking advantage of the Amsterdam parks during [...]
Even when it isn’t raining, you can’t escape the liquid in these low lands, but I suppose I, I just maybe, I might…totally adore the water that fills the canals & gives Amsterdam so. much. damn. charm. See! The charm! There it is! {Or, maybe the creepiness, given the fact I took a picture of these [...]
With our third delivery from De Krat, we were presented with fresh produce, bread, fruits & fish. Looking for a tasty way to prepare the mackerel with ingredients already stocked in our kitchen, we looked up a few recipes online.

This year for Christmas, I wanted to give PAB something that was a bit different & unique. When I heard about De Krat from Carly {a fellow expat blogger living in the Netherlands}, I instantly knew it would be the perfect gift. Every other week, PAB will receive a crate of local / fresh / [...]
Last night we decided it would be a good idea to venture out into the windy, windy & slightly drizzly weather for dinner. We hopped on our bikes and pedaled into the center of town. I commented on how it wasn’t even that cold, for all the wind. PAB noticed that it wasn’t even [...]
