One of these days we may venture over to Curacao or Aruba, but divers and local friends we've come to know have asked us why? We didn't have a good answer. They've asked us if were were interested in loud, thumping dance clubs. No. Lots of casinos? No. Lots of nightlife? No. Lots of McDonalds, Burger King, etc? NO!<br /><br />There is however, a KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) and a Subway (large, fresh made to order deli sandwiches), but that's it as far as franchise rules go for the island. <br /><br />Because of the international influence, there are restaurants from every part of the globe: sushi (the owner is from Japan), Indian (the owner is from India), Peruvian (the owner is from Peru), Mexican, French (the owner is from Paris),,,,, you get what I'm saying. It's a foodie mecca. It's like visiting restaurants on Manhattan without the traffic.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08338293880104502524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579692746110891017.post-85758364298051324662013-05-17T20:53:55.411-07:002013-05-17T20:53:55.411-07:00The Dutch Caribbean looks like just the place for ...The Dutch Caribbean looks like just the place for me.

At Christmas, my sister (who lives in Columbus, OH) went nuts over Trader Joe's Speculoos Cookie Spread, which is made with crushed ginger cookies (http://www.whatsgoodattraderjoes.com/2012/04/trader-joes-speculoos-cookie-butter.html).
