Still dreaming..

Good morning,

Still dreaming of the delicious dessert we made for Chirstmas... a "kerstboomstam" or as de French say "buche de noël". The recipe came from http://www.ah.nl/allerhande/#/recepten/1021358/kerstboomstammetje/?rq=kerstboomstam in case you want to replicate!! Really easy to make and delicious...pity I won´t be able to make it at home since we have no freezer (or maybe better for my health?!)

This is how ours looked like

Saludos and have a nice weekend!

Christmas Eve/ Nochebuena

Good evening,

Ready for Christmas Eve? In Spain we celebrate this evening with a big dinner with family (the ones that are around, ejem, shout out for my brother in the Caribbean working on a cruise ship). 

Tomorrow, lunch to celebrate Christmas and afterwards siesta or a long walk... but everything is so delicious that you can´t pass it up! (what a luxury problem really).

How are you celebrating?

Feliz Navidad!

Christmas at Keukenhof Castle

Good evening,

Starting tomorrow and until Sunday the 15th of December you can enjoy a wonderful Christmas fair on the grounds of Keukenhof Castle.

Located in Lisse you can walk around the Christmas stands, do some ice skating, listen to carols or warm up with some hot chocolate! There are special activities for children so you can bring your little ones.

You can get there by car or public transportation (there are busses departing from Leiden train station, for more information check their site)


Saludos,

Irene
