Bowl of Happiness
Now here’s an opening line for you: this was the best darn fruit salad I’ve ever had. And I mean every single word. It was utter perfection. Saintly, even. It combined fresh, sweet and light fruits such as papaya and mango with a more dense flavor like banana and the creamy avocado took it to such high levels one could not ever imagine a fruit salad to reach.

Grilled Peaches with Caramel Sauce
Here’s a little sunshine on a rainy Thursday morning. Rainy for us, that is. It’s so cold in the Netherlands. Yuck. This is probably my favorite dessert of all times.

Besides that, anything that can be this simple, look this beautiful and taste this good deserves a place at my table. I happened upon this recipe in the same Dutch magazine (Delicious) I…
