As it's Sunday, I made Dutch Sunday Soup, from the tagged book. It is made with whatever vegetables are in season (I used leek, carrots, celeriac, celery, Jerusalem artichokes and romanesco), small pieces of beef, veal meatballs flavoured with nutmeg, and vermicelli. Perfectly fine.

I‘m also starting this book tonight. It‘s a good reminder that #foodandlit is celebrating #Italy all year because it‘s the year of the Jubilee! I‘ll be trying to read at least one book a month for Italy. @Catsandbooks
Happy National Tulip Day in the #Netherlands! Will you be doing anything special? #foodandlit @Catsandbooks
#5joysFriday
1) Spending last weekend with my sister & visiting a small art gallery with this adorable painting of a cat
2) Trying poffertjes for #Netherlands #foodandlit
3) Making a scrapbook with photos of my parents‘ cat who passed at 17 years old
4) Reminiscing with old photos and found husband and me on the side of a mountain in Norway about 1992 waiting for an avalanche to be cleared on a road
5) Trying a Thai restaurant with my daughter
Last weekend my sister and I went to this small art gallery where the owner makes art out of found items, including this clog. This week, reading this book there was a reference to wooden Dutch clogs and I thought of this photo I took. Seems perfect for #Netherlands #foodandlit @Catsandbooks
pickThis was a horror story that was a page turner. It was 856 pages, so it was a chunkster for sure. I read it for #FoodandLit, and I'm glad I did. About a mountaineering team where something went horribly wrong. As it turns out, I heard a story of 2 Canadian Mountaineering men who just recently received the Order of Canada for their contributions to the sport. #Read2025 #Jumpstart2025 #ISpyBingoJan @Catsandbooks @Texreader @TheAromaofBoo⬇️
