 Kerst op de Kaap 2010

Had a very cold but cozy saturday.

Lots of people came by

neighbours, "de breimeisjes", friends

and that really made my day

 Sales went slow

but the warm atmosphere and the superbe christmastree

made everything okay :)

A special thank you for M. and B.

And now: home with the kids

time for thinking and making

winter things (and my favorite christmas song)

 Yep, busy as always in December

making nice things

for the upcoming Kerst op de Kaap

My favorite christmas song:

Hoe leit dit kindeke

(so sad and sweet)
