Thank you for your kind and co...Dearest Marie-Anne,<br />Thank you for your kind and complimenting comment. I'm glad that you learned something about the Corinth grapes. It often has to do with other continents where things are called different and when it comes back to the country of origin one wonders. Most people would not even now that Corinth is a Greek City-State.<br />Surely I enjoy my crocheted gifts and my grape scissors. They are such lovely silver work with roses.<br />Hugs to you and happy weekend.<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-18701221964550923842013-09-28T00:17:32.129-04:002013-09-28T00:17:32.129-04:00Dearest Anna,

But I'm hoping soon.. or else I will have to go into the city. Your setting is lovely - the crochet work is beautiful .. Susan is such a wonderful friend and her mama is so talented. Wish I could be sitting with you and Susan and Pieter enjoying your beautiful setting and gardens.<br />Thank you for sharing about the grape scissors in your newest post ...

The laughing cow is healthy low fat cheese that we can take with our cholesterol restricted diet.<br />We will have dinner with friends over the weekend; that's always a great thing to do. I don't mind the work; it is so rewarding.<br />Happy weekend to you as well and you better rest up!<br />Hugs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-9219077882826520142013-09-26T19:36:01.915-04:002013-09-26T19:36:01.915-04:00Dearest Karen,

Ja dat is altijd een mooi tafereel, o...Lieve Janny,<br />Ja dat is altijd een mooi tafereel, ook met deze mini druifjes. Nee deze druifjes zijn géén muscaatdruiven. Champagne druiven ontlenen hun naam aan een specifiek type van druiven, de Korinthe. Ze worden ook gebruikt voor zwarte krenten. Er wordt géén wijn van gemaakt.<br />De wijn is uit Californië en die is wel van de muscaatdruif! MUSCAT BLANC A PETITS GRAINS uit 2006 en zoet. <br />Maar het is ook weer niet de lekkere dessertwijn zoals Moscato d'Asti uit Italië die maar 5.5% alcohol bevat. Dat is een van mijn lievelingswijntjes voor ná een lekkere maaltijd. Je koopt hem meestal in half liter flesjes.<br />Liefs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-44551560286743905272013-09-26T12:31:06.024-04:002013-09-26T12:31:06.024-04:00Liebe Elisabeth,
