The Christmas angel was busy that night. With feathers falling from her wings like gentle flakes of snow she laid a trail for the revelers singing hymns of joy house to house along the village lane. Christmas Angel MeditationA Christmas meditation is included ...

Thank you for giving us another vehicle to use for being grateful. I've enjoyed meditation for many years - along with stroop waffles and erdt de soup (sp?)!

erwtensoep -
Split pea soup with cut up pieces of hotdog or air-dried bacon pieces plus whole fresh / frozen peas and green beans.
A favorite here in Holland, especially in restaurants as a first course.
stroopwaffles -
waffels with molasses instead of maple or king syrup.

Yes, I know. I was employed as a "consultant" to a major oil company in the late 70's - early '80's and enjoyed erwtensoep many, many times! Thanks for the correct spelling!

I'll bet it was Royal Dutch Shell. My cousin who lives in New Orleans works for them and gets to travel to The Netherlands for work occasionally. It is nice to see family from home (I'm from Baltimore).
Back to the topic of this thread - I also love meditation for the joy and energy it allows to rise from deep within.

Reading and Bates. They went belly-up 1985 or '86. I loved my frequent trips to Holland.
On to soupier subjects, can you send me a recipe for erwetensoep?
I'm looking forward to continuing to read your articles.

Your recipe will be fine. Thank you for sharing. :-)
I hope you had a good Christmas celebration on Monday and Tuesday. I bought beautiful hand blown glass ornaments when I was there.
Have a great day!
