I never lived in the Netherlands, but I am Dutch and it sure felt like home when I was there. I still miss it! :'(
Yes, I do cook poffertjes sometimes. My boyfriend loves them and he isn't even Dutch!
How about groentensoep? Do you put the little meatballs in it too?
Now for Nagerecht! Yum...
I love appeltaart, kwarktaart and Haagse bluf. And of course poffertjes!
Heeft u trek? ;)
Oh, Sinterklaas! I have so many memories of him. I have to laugh about it now though. I never could figure out how my grandpa ALWAYS managed to arrive at our house about 30 minutes after Sinterklaas left! (It was grandpa the whole time!). I'm not sure who intimidated me more - Sinterklaas or Piet! I never did actually see Piet or Schimmel, but Piet scared me none the less. And of course we also had Santa Claus on Christmas too.

Aww, didnt mean to make you feel homesick :( It's just so great to read all these wonderful things about my little country, hehehe
I'm not much of a cook but I do like making soup and yes I put the little meatballs into my groentensoep! It's not the same without it.
Hehehe, I love toetjes...warme appeltaart met slagroom. Lekker!! LOL
Aww, we always had a nice friendly Sinterklaas come over to the house. Strict but friendly and we never had scary Pieten either. LOL
We celebrated both too but either gave presents on Sinterklaas or Kerstmis.
Great talking to you :)

When I say Holland:
I think of my sister who lives in Amsterdam with her husband and four kids! :-*
I also think of the beautiful flowers, windmills, clogs..(although I never saw anyone wearing these in public ...) ;D
I also think of a million bikes ...
..and the open markets in Amsterdam ...
I hope I can go back there next spring for a visit! :)

Oh my God! If he sat down in one of those shoes, he could probably sail back to America in it! :)
