Spéculoos spread

Speculaas or spéculoos is a type of caramalised (caramelized) shortcrust biscuit. You have probably eaten them on a plane if unlike me you cannot fly.

Now super French company Lotus Bakeries has produced a spread made of spéculoos that you can put on your toast like peanut butter. I cannot wait to try this.

Crows in Japan

Read about my cousins in Japan at the New York Times. Here are a few quotes:

The crows here look and act the part. With wing spans up to a yard and intimidating black beaks and sharp claws, Japan’s crows are bigger, more aggressive and downright scarier than those usually seen in North America.

In Kagoshima, they are even trying to outsmart the Crow Patrol. The birds have begun building dummy nests as decoys to draw patrol members away from their real nests.

The birds seem to be winning.

Tsuruoka installed traps last year after about 7,000 crows took over a central park and the playground of a nearby high school
