Loo laughs

I’ve been meaning to post about this for a while. The toilet paper here is one of the things I love. It’s so bizarre and yet makes you smile.

It’s getting hot in here

Yesterday I went to a glass workshop with a friend. Working with 1100 degree furnaces and shaping glass. So much fun. Can’t wait to see the final product when we go back to pick it up ... after cooling in the 500 degree fridge! 






Pumpkins away

We trekked our to the small town of Kasterlee for a unique event. 

Home made catapults and trebuchets launching pumpkins as far as they can. It was rainy and muddy and very much an experience. 

 We rescued a few pumpkins and then enjoyed a spontaneous thanksgiving dinner with friends 

So much to be thankful for!

Fairytale village

A little over an hour from Brussels is a little German  town. Monschau. 

We toured around for the day with friends, exploring the quaint houses and random festival. 









Flute

Emily has decided that she wants to play flute. She seems to have a real passion for it, playing for everyone who will listen. She even thinks she hears flute in pop songs (Taylor Swift's Look What You Made me do - for example) 


One can only hope her enthusiasm continues.
