the theme 'bed and board' was chosen by sweet Rose Ariane
first i translated 'bed and board' into Dutch
'tafel en bed', 'table and bed', ??....
when i searched the internet i found all those hits about the difference between
divorce and seperation from bed and board.... hmmm....
i was sure Ariane didn't meant THAT with this theme
so i turned it into the obligation to take care for each other
what my love and i are doing for about 23 years now
take care for
look after
see too
tend
nurse
with all the processing and preserving i have done lately i feel like a good housewife
i am taking care of our 'bed and board' and
love my full pantry filled with goodies and love ;^)))
HA! I looked for the translation as well and on the internet I found an old Truffaut film. I think your interpretation is wonderful like your wonderful undone bed. Taking care of each other, tender and care and homemade goodies make a house a home and different people a family.

ah so beautiful, your interpretation and your lovely labels and preserves. love your small bedside table too! 23 years is so wonderful, here's to the next 23...

These are wonderful photos and nice, crisp, clean colors. I especially like your tags, though. Mine are so much more dull and functional.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt looks like you are tending exceptionally well to you AND your partner!

Wonderful pickles and preserves, Patrice! I love making jam myself. And also love keeping the home fires burning for 30 years with my Sailor. xxoo, sus
