As a new resident in Belgium; stop and look up and all about more often to appreciate where I am.<br />3. Start using the new yet classic (exotic to me) ingredients available to me in my cooking.<br />4. Learn to speak Nederlands and French fluently (a tall order for both).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17425667772673267769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389638963547998271.post-6811810993033193712013-01-02T09:54:12.143-08:002013-01-02T09:54:12.143-08:00Hi Kristen, Glad you enjoyed the post and hope you...Hi Kristen, Glad you enjoyed the post and hope you come back!
