Dutch treat

Anna had a new friend from school to lunch so we decided to set a pretty table. We used these trinkets -- candle sticks and a little house -- from Amsterdam. I used to work for a company that had a Dutch office and we would send cultural care packages back and forth. I'm sure none of my Dutch former colleagues display whatever horrible American artifacts we sent over (Boston baked bean pot?) but I love my blue-and-white imititation delft house and candlesticks. They always inspire happy memories of my trips to Amsterdam.
