About

A Table Abroad is written from the vantage point of The Netherlands.  For family reasons I move to different countries every couple of years but for the next few we will be here.  You can see my brief blog from Ankara, Turkey here .

I’d like to say that this blog will focus on cooking, recipes, the geography and memory of food, and feeding my family while abroad, but I guess I also reserve the right to wander into European culture and raising children, should those or other subjects present themselves.  One cannot be picky about a good idea.

As for me, I’m a native New Englander, maybe not where I’ll settle down for life, but I do suffer from genetic Yankee tendencies.   I’m frugal, practical, and a committed Boston sports fan.  I complain about the weather, have very little aptitude for fashion or makeup and consider Vermont about the best place there is.

A Table Abroad, or A Table, A Broad?  One could argue that A Table, A Broad is more appropriate, especially on those days when I forget my manners.
