Dutch pepernoten (recipe included)
Lately I've been craving pepernoten and other Dutch treats, like licorice. It probably has everything to do with the arrival of my mother next week, and my best friend in January.

There is something about that sensation of not being able to touch the ground, and … Continue reading Just keep swimming
