Beschuit

I thought winter is over because last week I have a chance already to go on bicycle... But last night it had snowed again.... Snow is really nice for the first few weeks but actually it's not really so easy when there's snow... Like today, I didn't noticed yesterday that we don't have bread anymore. So I can't just go out with bicycle and buy bread.... Anyway, every Sunday normally stores are closed here and every monday their openning time is 1:00 in the afternoon.... So it doesn't matter too. So instead of bread we ate beschuit for breakfast...

In Manila, bescuit is like a toasted bread that we normally eat on snack time but here yes, it's really for breakfast... It's light for me to eat beschuit for breakfast but it's okay than not to eat breakfast at all... I like it with strawberry jam but my daughter likes it just plain :)

Kleuter


Kleuter is a dutch word that means children with age between 3 to 6 yrs. old. Last 24th of January my daughter celebrated her 3rd birthday, that's why she's now considered kleuter. And last year when Mireille turned 2, she was then considered as peuter.

She had a simple birthday celebration but for sure a nice one... In the first photo above you'll see how shy she was to blow the candles although we did already have some practice, nights before her birthday on how she will blow her candles... Then on the 2nd photo, was in the morning of her birthday, her sisters Sharon en Nienke were not here but they gave a call to Mireille... And you'll see in the photo how she enjoy talking with them then :) Nice!
