marycrawfordHappy Sinterklaas to all!
I got a chocolate letter in my shoe this morning, which means I have been good and will not be taken back to Spain in a big burlap sack. (A pity, really - it's 22C in Sevilla right now, and sunny.)
Now I'm going to see if the marzipan has gone on sale yet. Mmmm. My favorite kind of Sinterklaas marzipan is not the little marzipan figurines, fun as those are, but the giant pink and white marzipan pigs, about the size of a real wee piglet. I love how you can ask for 'a slice of the pig', almost as if you're at a butcher's. It's wonderfully surreal.

MOST excellent, thank you again!
