yesterday was the baptism of my cousin's son (is he my nephew or cousin or what?)
and we had cake....appeltaart, schuimtaart, fruittaart, brownies...all of it homemade....and of course I had to try - all of it! it was soooo good, I mean, it was really good. And than I had still some chocolate left, which I got from a very nice person...I mean, real swiss chocolate...and somehow, I ate it as well...
and after the baptism churchservice there was coffee and cookies...which I had to try as well....and they were good....

probably a good thing I started running
