A pie a week

mmmmm,
I really love this pie,
and what's more,
my kids too,
and that is the most important,
because
believe me,
cooking for (my)kids
is not easy!

Etsy birthday craft party at Mitsy's!

How Etsy makes me do things I never did before in my life:
- I went to Hasselt
- I worked with porcelain paper clay
- I ate salmon lasagna with 'raapjes'
- I ate bonbons especially made for the wedding of the Swedish Royal Wedding
- I ate muffins with raspberries that I saw on Facebook the day before!
- I toasted with a glass of 'Groot Geluk'
- I slept on the train

and all this
in the good company of these sweet ladies:
Kim, Ina, Marianna, Mitsy, Veerle, Nicole and Annemiek







See you next year at the craft party in Ghent, girls!

(and to give this day a perfect finish,
Mitsy (and Martha) prepared a gift bag for us all, but that is for another blogpost!
