Country Fair



Took part in a Lifestyle Fair in Friesland. The fair was in recognition of October as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Serious subject but the fair was great fun.

My sister Amber the portrait painter at the fair.

Stout, strong and sturdy famer. Just loved him.
 
Lots of lifestyle products at the fair, this one was definitely the quirkiest:
fashion for the sexy farmer's wive.
Nurse Rianne fell in love with a very goodlooking farmerboy and really wanted to look the part. So she designed more feminine clothing to look gorgeous in when milking cows. In love and in business! Farmers just love to buy the overalls for their wives. Love and money do go together.

Favourite recipe of my grandpa and grandma

Today my mother told me about their all time favourite dish


two tomatoes, sliced
butter
frying pan
slices of bread
coal or wood stove
someone you love


Sit next to each other, real close
heat butter, add tomatoes, wait till you hear them sizzle in the pan, add salt & pepper to taste,  put on slice of bread, close your eyes, eat, enjoy, kiss, again, fry some more tomatoes...


according to my ma, this simple dish brought them in a culinary valley of happiness
I can just imagine them together, having a gentle party
