About Me

Here I would love to share with you our travels and adventures as international mushroom consultants. MEMOIRS about husband Pieter Vedder, who was a SCIENTIFIC PIONEER in Commercial Mushroom Cultivation Education. His practical handbook is in 9 languages and is called the MUSHROOM BIBLE: https://mariettesbacktobasics.blogspot.com/2020/08/modern-mushroom-growing-2020-harvesting.html

{MERRY CHRISTMAS 2012}

Wishing all of you, worldwide a MERRY CHRISTMAS 2012! May there be PEACE and HOPE for many. Above all LOVE.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
With fresh paperwhites, they are such a fragrant bonus for this time of year!
Point à la Ligne candle. Vase is Mandalay by Masons.
Pillow was my winning Giveaway from Rebecca of: A Gathering Place.
Tablecloth is silk brocade, that Pieter did bring back from his trip for Campbell Soup to China, with People to People Citizen Ambassador Program.
Merry Christmas
