Sinterklaas

Last saturday Sinterklaas arrived in The Netherlands. If you're not from here or from Belgium you probably never heard of him. He's a Dutch tradition, kinda like Santa Claus. On the 5th of December it's his birthday and he 'celebrates' that by giving all the sweet children some gifts. Between this weekend and his birthday you can also place your shoe somewhere in the house and when you sing a song the next day there will be a little gift in it. Offcourse he's not real, but when you're little you do believe in it ;-). It's a sweet tradition, but I don't really celebrate it. I'm probably going to eat in a restaurant with some of my friends and then we'll maken a poem for each other with a little gift. It's not the real tradition, but it's still nice :-).

Oh the temptation..

Last night I was a bit tired so I spoiled myself with some relaxing time. First I wanted to start with the making of my NY photograph album (still, I know), but I found out that I forgot to print some photo's of the beginning of the trip (AARGH!), so I had no choice then to put that plan away and to surf around the internet. To be specifik, blogs.. I found some great new ones and on one of them I found this tiny movie.

I love it. It's a psychology experiment about willpower. The children get a marshmallow and two options. One, they can eat it straight away. Second, they can wait till the adult is back into the room and get an extra one. Ohhh... the temptation...
