Koffiewafels are the best! Erin might be addicted to them. She won't try to explain what they are because she isn't quite sure exactly what they are, but koffiewafels are sugary treats meant to be snacked on with coffee at one of the many daily coffee breaks observed in the Netherlands. Coffee, tea, orange juice, fruit punch, whatever...Koffiewafels are good with anything!
John is happy to be playing the keyboard now after a month of being out of town or working too much to enjoy this hobby. It's OK for him to be playing now because it's not yet 9 p.m. We are very careful about when the keyboard is played after having a neighbor knock on our door one weekend and ask that he refrain from playing too early in the morning or late at night.
In the midst of the cold weather and snow flurries here in Amsterdam we decided it was the perfect time to visit De Orchideeën Hoeve, a large orchid nursery about an hour away from us. The nursery has put together several buildings of tropical gardens and rain forests for visitors to enjoy. Other than all the tall people wearing orange speaking Dutch, we got to imagine for a while that we were in a much warmer, sunnier, greener place. It was great!
