xmas baking!

Mmm, pepernoten... The Dutch heritage is making my kitchen smell awfully yummy today. Cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger... is good, ja? :) I also baked shortbread, which was NOT FUN because it is the crumbliest "dough" I have ever encountered, but I PREVAILED and those at our xmas party tonight better appreciate it!
And now, a quick guide to locating small mischievous felines:
Step One: Locate tail.

Step Two: Locate nose.

Step Three: Kitty!!

Other strategies include Following the Meowing, Patting the Bed Until You Find A Small Breathing Lump, Checking the Laundry Hamper, and Shaking the Bag of Kitty Treats.

Mmmmm pepernoten! One of my very early memories is of this great big commotion in the kitchen when St. Nicolas (Sinter Klaas) came with Black Peter (Zwarte Piet) and threw pepernoten all over the floor (Dec 5). Of course all us children would chase after them and get as many as we could. In the time it took, Sinter Klaas was gone leaving some presents for us in the process.
Kaldy...
oh my goodness those are great pics of your cat! I'm inspired to take some now :)
