This is what I thought of: I'll heat a liter of glühwein...put it in the thermos with some Christmascookies and mugs.........we put in our backpacks and off we go through the snow. .......we'll drink it up at her place. We'll give her a half glass as well.
And Betty: you are invited, with your 89 year old mother. So the two ancients ladies can chatter away about the good old times and we can fill ourselves up with glühwein and good cheer.
Be there both at 15.00 sharpish, see you!
edit: all 90 years old invited as well, off course. Just say the word and I'll heat up some more glühwein. |
I just called my mom and read this to her, and she was honestly as pleased as if we were really coming! She said to be sure and tell you that this was her first invitation ever to the Netherlands and she would certainly accept it if she could! So thank you for that!
