Time has flown since The Hive Conference in Berlin where Natalie and I gave a workshop on “How to create the life (home, work and other stuff) you love” and I keep thinking back to the weekend and just how much fun I had both at the conference and spending time with the girls in such a fun city as Berlin!

On My Night Stand. Parenting a Dutch Puppy. One day my husband woke up and decided he wanted a puppy. This was the man who’d always said ‘over my dead body’. My son had gone around telling people, ‘When daddy dies, we’re going to get a dog.’ Well daddy’s not dead but he might be having a teensy-weensy midlife crisis. Je hebt er geen kind aan’. Only now I’ll have to go out every two hours during the day to take the new baby for a toilet stop. It’s slightly better than changing nappies, but bagging up ...

On My Night Stand. Dutch School Culture of Mediocrity. By Rina Mae Acosta. A fellow expat mom in a Facebook group I am part of voiced similar concerns, doubting whether or not she made the best decision for her children. A fellow Dutch parent, Ian Macdonald, responded with the best mic drop I have ever come across. His response resonated deeply with me and assuaged my fears, concerns, doubts and guilt.

On My Night Stand. Stuff Dutch People Think Is Dutch. I’ve long been a fan of Colleen Geske’s entertaining blog. Stuff Dutch People Say,. Which being a linguist, is right up my street. The Dutch language is riddled with often peculiar idiom (they speak in expressions, after all) and Colleen sets about explaining where some of these things come from, as well as discussing Dutch words that have made their way into the English language (coleslaw kool-sla, for example). The Netherlands in 26 Iconic Objects,.

Elma's Kitchen: October 2014
http://elmaskitchen.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, 10 October 2014. So here's the thing. The reason why I've been a little quiet. I'm working on a new website for myself. The illustrator / photographer self that is. The one that wants to make a living of her art. The website is a work in progress because it turns out there is a LOT to learn once you delve into the world of html, css and wordpress. My oh my. You can see my progress here: http:/ www.elmacoetzee.nl. Don't be surprised if it changes daily. I have big plans. But not enough time.
