I got some cookies, chocolate and a Die Hard mug with the 30th anniversary blu-ray for Christmas movie.

I bought my kids Kena Bridge of Spirits and Riders Republic which I'll be playing as well some time.

So talking about Cookies and that other thread can I jump to the conclusion that your family either, know what you like, are trying to drug you, or they believe that cookie gifts make for a tranquil Christmas, or maybe  all of the above.

They were Dutch cookies, but only good for a sugar high haha. I always say I don't need any more stuff, so they buy me Dutch 'food'. I also got some Mentos drop, Griotten and Boterham korrels (hagelslag). It all pairs very well with my special cookies :)

I never heard that one, listening to it now. It would fit right into any coffeeshop in Amsterdam. Last time I was in Amsterdam we didn't visit any coffee shops, all the places we did go to had the same elevator techno music playing. Thanks for making me feel old lol. From attending Thunderdome in Rotterdam and Innercity in the RAI, Amsterdam to elevator techno.

My 20's lol


Actually it still exists

Rave'n on

I got Kena Bridge of Spirits from my girlfriend. I am enjoying it so far. Cool combat, very nice visuals. More of a story focus than what I expected, but in a good way. And the game seems longer than anticipated as well.

And an update to my earlier post: she liked Ori and is almost at the end of part 1, already eager for part 2.
