My belated holiday presents
EN
In the past few posts I have
already told you about my family members from
My birthday and Christmas
are both close dates and when I was kid I usually get 1 kind of gift that
count for these both days. And as a kid that sucked and so unfair and disappointed
and this makes me a ungrateful kid towards my parents. I should be already
happy with something.
So that’s why food gifts are
great because they aren’t pricey, it’s shareable and comforts your mind soul
and body.

In de afgelopen posts heb
ik je al verteld over mijn familieleden uit Hong Kong die hierheen kwamen in
de kerstvakantie en we hebben o.a. dit
en dit gedaan en daarnaast komen ze altijd met cadeautjes! Cadeautjes uit
Hong Kong welteverstaan en dat betekent meestal: eten ha. En we ontvangen
eten met open armen nietwaar?
De datum van mijn
verjaardag en Kerstmis liggen erg dicht op elkaar en als kind zijnde kreeg ik
meestal 1 soort cadeau dat voor beide deze dagen telt. En ik weet nog hoe jammer
en teleurstellend ik dit telkens vond en zo terugdenkend maakt me een ondankbaar
kind tegenover mijn ouders.
Dus dat is de reden waarom
eten de beste geschenken zijn. Het is niet duur, je kunt samen eten en is
troostend.

Loving my tin lunch boxes! And I pack my sandwiches and go to work with it everyday!
Because my family knows how much I love bake/eat cakes.
Because my family also knows that I love to draw.
Indulge UK snacks
Ok, I kind of squealed when I saw these chocolate filled pancakes! Pretty cool quick snack concept I must say!
They taste ok. I prefer fresh ones obvious.

Some lovely handy winter essentials.
And last but not least: money in red pockets!
Wat een lieve en attente kadootjes! Zo fancy, je brooddozen :)
ReplyDeleteThose forks are SO CUTE!!! I'll have to remember to stop by the cutlery section the next time I go to Daiso. Which is probably in San Francisco haha, since that's the only place I know that has Daiso...
ReplyDeleteI remember I thought it was unfair that my parents started giving me and my sister money at the same time, she's younger and I was older so why did she get the head start?! It's really silly as kids how we think the little things like that are unfair :P

OOoo What a nice array of gifts! Loved the look of the chocolate filled crepes!! Pre made and packaged? Hell yeah! I too have a fond memory of tin boxes for lunches when I was a kid! I was so tempted to get myself a cute plastic one with rillakuma on it on holiday but sadly didn't! Oooo Chinese New Year is coming soon! I'll be receiving red packets myself! :p
ReplyDeleteMy friends usually gift me cute/cool snacks as well! I remember one birthday I got especially many gifts like that, and my mom commented saying, "Are your friends trying to feed you or something?" haha. I used to always get friends little souvenirs whenever I came back from travels, but I've since decided that it's probably better to come back with food, because you can't do very many things with most souvenirs and they end up just taking up space. Food, on the other hand, always brings immense pleasure. :) -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's

hahah I love food gifts too. Giving and receiving food gifts is awesome :D Those choco pancakes sound great! The mint kitkats too btw ;) We could definitely use some winter essentials this week. I'm not sure how the weather's in your part of the country, but my car was an ice ball this morning T^T "Perks" of living in The Netherlands, right? :P And I understand your feeling of being ungrateful. It is only when we're older we understand how much our parents are already giving us. Now that I'm making my own money, I'm giving back presents and such to my dad <3
ReplyDeleteFood gifts are the best! Those forks with jewels on the handles are so cute <3 xo
ReplyDeleteThose hand warmers are my life savers! I use about 2 to 3 each month (at least) -- mainly to ease cramps.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely gifts! I love food gifts yummmm.

ReplyDeleteGreat gifts Mei! Epp cute cake forks and the tin lunch boxes! Dani's brother also has his birthday so very near Christmas, getting only 1 (nicer) present counting for both days it's more convenient for us but I know that it can be disappointing.
