I feel as if I just had a wonderful adventure of my own. I look forward to trying a few of the recipes you thoughtfully included, then telling 'the story' behind them.

Synopsis
A entertaining account of a two-years in the Netherlands that doubles as an insightful guide to moving country "It is not 'a piece of cake' to move to another country, but - though undoubtedly culture shock struck many a time - Norean approached her new home with openness and enthusiasm and put the same dedication she had previously put into her career...into making herself at home in the Netherlands. Her adventures are an entertaining and enlightening read. So, if you are wondering where to start, we suggest you pick up this little book and find out that with a real-life husband, family and household, life in a new country might be a challenge, but also an adventure - that will leave you changed forever, but also more complete."--The Xpat Journal (Netherlands) An overachiever, Norean was a woman trying to sustain the modern woman's American dream - to have a career, be a wife and mother, and somehow remain sane. Then, unexpectedly, her husband was offered an overseas assignment.... Living with the Dutch is part memoir, part guide to the culture and people of The Netherlands, part advice to anyone contemplating moving country with a family. This book is a charming account of Norean's travels and experiences during her two-year stay in The Hague, and chronicles her personal growth as she gains a new perspective on life. The reader follows her family from the chaotic move overseas, to surviving Dutch neighbors, weather, traffic, cooking and much more!, No problem. A quick trip to The Netherlands and hours later Peter signed papers for our new home (sight unseen by me). So, we weren't moving to Paris. So we didn't speak Dutch. So our children faced the prospect of being home-schooled by their mother -- a fate worse than death! So we left one angry French landlady and two grateful school children on a long waiting list in St. Cloud. So my brother cancelled his tickets for next spring and told us that moving from Paris to The Hague was like moving from Boston to Cincinnati!." Nurtured in the Netherlands is Norean Sharpe's account of her experiences in this amazing little country in Europe. She offers acute and often humorous observations on the Dutch way of life as an expatriate who is suddenly and unexpectedly relocated to the Netherlands. Before arriving in The Hague, she and her American family actually planned to move to Paris, but plans brusquely changed as her husband Peter was offered a position in the Netherlands. The family faces typical expatriate problems along the way, learn a lot about how to tackle them and in the meantime discover a completely new country.
