Hurray!

A cake for our national team! After a very long evening the match ended in the night with the victory against Costa Rica. Then our neigbourhood exploded with some fireworks, so it was a short night for everyone.
This cake "Chocolate Kaizerin with Pumped Strawberries and its Public Custard" is made in 2014 by French artist Vincent Olinet (1981). It is exhibited in the Hague.

  2. I had a feeling that I could find out who won by coming here! So happy for The Netherlands. I can almost hear the fireworks. Did I ever tell you that when I moved to the Netherlands and experienced my first New Year's Eve? The Dutch know a thing or two about fireworks. I was convinced World War III had started!
    That cake looks like a couple I have made:) Janey

  3. Dearest Marianne,
    It was quite a nail biter yesterday but the Orange team made it in the end! So indeed a big hurray!
    Enjoy the festivities and now up to the semi finals on July 9.
    Hugs,
    Mariette

  5. Ja wat was het spannend hè. Ik kreeg het spaans benauwd bij het idee dat we zouden verliezen. Dat zouden ze niet verdiend hebben. Maar gelukkig heeft van Gaal een Engeltje op zijn schouder.
