Year end festivities has started!
Sinterklaas (sounding awfully similar to Santa Claus) is in town.

He's at the local weekly market greeting shoppers.

Zwarte Piet, his helpers, are around for potential crowd control.

Ate Kenyan food for the first time.

The dish I ordered was bean fried rice with salad. The beans and rice were served in different containers.

It's tasty enough.

Op shop, aka 2ndhand shop, visit. One can find all sorts of stuff here.

Most items on sale are in relative good condition and very reasonable pricing.

First attempt making gluten-free choc chip cookies with almond flour.

Not quite crispy even after it's been in the fridge.

Need to find a different recipe to try again.

On the flip side, cookie dough is yummy!
