The best way to begin 2012....

It is a Dutch tradition to celebrate the New year by making "Oliebollen".
It is one of the reasons I love being Dutch!!!!

I hired a VERY cute Oliebollen maker....


It starts like this...


and ends with a plate full of yumminess!!!


Time for a delicious bite...
and a little powder sugar on the nose of the baker!!!!

Time to call Holland and wish
our Dutch family a very Happy New Year.

A fun way to begin the new year....
and one more reason to put the diet off for a few more days!!!

Mmmmm! Those look delicious and you have the cutest little baker ever. Powdered sugar nose and all.
Is that your living room? Love those chairs and is that white carpet. You are brave. Beautiful.

I'm a little slow at getting around to some of my favorite blogs and I'm sure glad I didn't miss yours! Yum, yum I haven't had those since I was young at my Gramma's house in Iowa. I guess my Mom didn't think they were healthy so never made them. I love the baker, so precious! Thanks for a childhood memory and here's to a great 2012!
