Grand Parents gift


When we came home from our biking trip, we found a gift from my sister Riek and her husband Johan on board " biscuit met muisjes" (ruskes with "muisjes") and a bottle of wine.
Muisjes are sweets that are served on bread, or rusks. This is a tradition (in Holland) to serve after a baby has been born. Pink and white "muisjes" for a girl, and Blue and white "muisjes" for a boy.
