THE BIG DAY

A few years ago, when my dear friend Carol came to visit me in the US, I went to Houston rodeo with Amanda. We tried all kinds of fair fried things and we had a mouthgasm when we had fried oreos. Therefore, you could imagine how excited I was with this gift: The ingredients to make […]

So, the back story for the next gift is that Jo and I have always talked about taking trips together. In fact, we even had a travel scrapbook with all the places we wanted to visit (and I am sure that one day we will go there). Therefore, this gift is very fitting: How cute! […]
