When we were motorcycling in Switzerland in 2003, one of my favorite things to see and hear were the cows, the mooing and the clanging of cow bells as the cows wandered on the mountains. So peaceful and soothing. There were herds of cows conveniently located at most our our mountaintop stops. I especially love “fuzzy” cows.

Someone told us they are a Fasnacht treat (the season starts Nov. 11, I think), so that's why they are only around in winter. OMG – we LOVE Quarkini.

They're a real Saint Nicholas (Saint Nicholas Day is celebrated here on the 5th of December) treat. And the chocolate ones as well! They usually have nothing to do with pepper, although they are about spices and I think the nuts refer more to the shape than what's in them. I can't get enough of those... Those Quarks remind me of Berliner 'bol' or pfannkuchen in German. You found the Dutch pepernoten! They’re a real Saint Nicholas (Saint Nicholas Day is celebrated here on the 5th of December) treat.
