It takes a day or two for my dog, Maybe, to recover from an appointment with the groomer. But she loves posing after!

Over the holidays, I saw the musical Soldaat van Oranje—based on the true story of one of the greatest Dutch resistance war fighters, Erik Hazelhoff Roelfzema. It’s about betrayal, sacrifice, and courage. Highly recommended!
