Projects are getting finished
What’s this? A new garland?
No, these are the legs of the ‘koekjesfee’ dolls waiting to be stuffed. Don’t tell anyone I used pins in my cupboard for hanging these…
Their heads are waiting for some embroidery.
And remember these? The car-labels are finally finished and you know what? It makes my children happy. Children need surtainties in their lives, even if it’s only where to sit in the car.
Potatoes
My husband, my children and I are huge potato fans! We love them in all kinds of preparations! But this is what I do when there are some boiled potatoes left over from dinner (which rarely happens), and when I’m alone at home (which happens even more rarely).
First of all, I chop an onion. Then I cut the boiled potatoes in slices and bake them together with the onion. Meanwhile I mix 2 eggs together with some salt and lots of nutmeg. When the potatoes get a bit brown and the fire is real high, I pour the mixed eggs in the pan and keep on stirring stirring stirring until the eggs are baked. Then I eat it ALL at once!

Mijn man, kinderen en ik zijn patatten(vr)eters. Maar dit is mijn geheime recept voor mij alleen als er gekookte aardappelen overblijven van de middagmaal. (al heeft mijn man me wel al eens betrapt bij het koken en toen moest ik delen):
Ik snij een ajuin in kleine stukjes en bak het samen met aardappelen in een pan. Ondertussen roer ik 2 eieren met wat zout en veel muskaatnoot in een kom. Ik laat de ajuin en aardappelen bruin worden in de pan en daarna zet ik het vuur op het allerhoogst. Dan roer ik de eieren erdoor en blijf naarstig roeren tot alle ei gebakken is. En dan eet ik alles op!

Tribute to the first softie, an elephant
Designed and handsewed by my son, 7 years old.
This is his previous softies collection he has designed and sewed.
2nd Annual Softie Awards.
The second Great Annual Softie Awards is open since last week. There are fun categories to enter your softie. I really really want to make a new softie, like for example an elephant. But there are only 2 weeks left to enter, and I have no much inspiration. Perhaps my son ran away with all my creativity because I told him about the Softie Awards and immediately he started designing his very own elephant.
Since I learned him how to sew, he’s made many softies (I’ll upload all the pictures of his softies tomorrow). This time I told him he should do it all by himself. He knows now how cut the fabric, how to to put the thread in his needle and how to make a knot in his thread, how to sew, turn inside out, stuff, and assemble his softies.
He is just great. There is no age limit for entering in the Softie Awards, is there?
