On the road

Taking the camper and crossing the border to BBQ on a German camping. Wonderful. Dogs love walking around outside all day :-) Meat from Holtes butcher, smoked beet salad and a lemon hütenkäse dressing, hmmmmm

Fam Jordaan place

Fleeing the city to get some fresh air in the forest of Holte. Marie got some Cordon Bleu from the best butcher in town, made with some pasta and tomato sauce and spending the evening on the porch listening to all the sounds the forest makes and that sound a bit creepy being city girls

Ton and Banny's place

It's summer, so...some some marinated lamb from the BBQ, but was was a great surprise was the salad of BBQ'd half peaches on bresaloa and rucola. Delicious!!

French Café Bistrot

Dinner at the French Café Bistrot with little sister and I forgot to take pictures of the wonderful food!! Very nice place, nice people and good food. Had a whole artichoke with "vinaigrette de moutarde", a lovely fish soup, steak tartare (yum) and the best entrecote from Lindenhoff...visit www.thefrenchcafe-bistrot.nl to see what other great, simple French food they have...

Pasta met gehaktsaus

My baby made a minces meat tomato pasta with green beans because of me craving some beef :-)

Ravioli met Tomatensaus

Pregnancy makes you tired...and maybe a bot lazy. SO tonight a simple meal, just some ravioli with cherry tomato and basil sauce. Green beans on the site for some extra health...

Jurs Place

Ate at Jurs place again. After lunch coffee at Wilhelmina Doc (should go there just for the beautiful view at Amsterdam), a wonderful bike ride through picturesque Northern Amsterdam and drinks with Ben at the terrace of nuew found place "het Gemaal" down at Flevopark we had diner at Jurs place. Jur made some lovely Zucchini soup with fresh mint. Jur may make me soup any day :-)

Fotgot to take pictures though :-(

Gent aan de Schinkel

Still one of the nicest little restaurants. End of the Vondelpark, cross the street and the small bridge and it's as iff you're no longer in the city but in a little village in stead. Unfortunately the food was not as good as it used to be. Tomato soup, goat cheese and fig salad, was ok, but not special

Robert and Christine's Place

Eating in the Garden of Robert and Christines little forrest house is like being on vacation. Even forgot to take a picture of the lovely BBQ dinner. Salmon and Fennel, Baked potato and and a green salad on the site. Fresh fruit cakes for desert. Thank you R&C

Anne's place

Super delicious (and healthy) meal by my sister Anne:

Cod with capers and salicornia, a salad of tasty tomatoes with fresh herbs, red onions and olive oil, a salad with radishes, mackerel and sprouts and oven beked mini potatoes with rosemary, Jummy!

Gepocheerde Vis

Poched white fish with fresh herb sauce, potato salad and green beans with lemon. Hmmm and healthy

Risotto, Zucchini, grilled chicken, homemade pesto and some nice Parmezan...

Bye Fretoy

...and Paris here we come...

Chez Marianne

"The day after"...our wedding. Dropped of in Paris, Happy and Tired, having a great light dinner at Chez Marianne in the Marais before strolling through a hot summery Paris where everyone is having a Picknick along the Seine

Fretoy

Everything set up for one of the best days of my life, marrying my love in front of the 51 closest people in our lives on a sunny day in a French meadow

Fretoy

the perfect wedding location to celebrate love with your closest friends and family

Nice

end of a wonderful week together celebrated with a light lunch on the beach of Nice with a view on: the ocean of course

Brugge

Weekend relaxing in a monastry in Brugge where the fathers make simple monastry meals and everything breathes peace and quit. What a wonderful place

Zondag Witteveen

Heerlijk uitslapen en dan tegen twaalven Witteveen binnenkomen, plaats nemen op een van de etalagebanken en er dan voorlopig niet meer weg gaan omdat het buiten toch regent en je de hele dag niets meer hoeft te doen

Paris

What better way to celebrate that the new year has come than to take a train to Paris at 7 am on the 1st of january...

Paris

Bye Como

See you soon...

Como

After a day of hiking through the mountains around Como lake, one needs a decent meal with my baby's pasta, a real Italian Caprese salad and a bottle of good Italian wine. How lovely Italy is, even when it rains:

Como cooked meal

My baby makes the best pasta's. Being in Italy making your own pasta, just because the ingredients are so good. A simple olio, aglio and pepperonica pasta, parmezan, spinace salad and some bread...what more could you need...

Holiday at Heerde

Once in a while you have to flee the city for a couple of days. One of the best places is this little place at the edge of the forrest with fruit trees all around. Great thing: no internet or phone reception. The small village of Heerde nearby for grocery shopping. Five days of complete rest and relaxation.

Amsterdam

Best way to spend a sunny afternoon: floating through the canals with Ben. Tip! Best way to sleep in Amsterdam: in Ben's Boat and Breakfast!
