My SS is amazing!!!! He/she read that I wanted to visit the Netherlands and that I like to "live like a local" when I travel AND that I love chocolate, so they sent me a box from Vander Veen's The Dutch Store, FILLED with Dutch treats like a milk chocolate initial for my name, dark chocolate sprinkles (& explained these are typically eaten on bread spread with butter...HELLOOOO!!) Also Dutch pancake mix (& sent me a translation for the directions, plus when they prefer to eat them & how...so sweet), waffle syrup cookies (delicious!), traditional Dutch spiced windmill cookies, Strooi Goed~tiny cookies (that are traditionally eaten on Christmas between opening gifts, also explained to me by SS...how thoughtful is this SS?!) and last but not least, a pea soup mix (also translated directions for me & told me when it's typically eaten). I am in awe. Due to work obligations, I'm spending Christmas Eve & Day alone, so finding this today on my doorstep on Christmas Eve afternoon was really perfect timing. I also love that my SS explained the Dutch version of Santa to me. I got some wonderful treats to sample AND feel like I've already visited thanks to the thoughtful local insight provided & instructions given about all the goodies. THANK YOU WHOEVER YOU ARE! xoxo Merry Christmas!!
