For everybody from my country The Netherlands have a very happy last week from Sinterklaas!!! π₯°π₯°β€οΈ
Sinterklaasliedjes van vroeger - Hij komt, hij komt, de lieve, goede Sint π
You also get some pepernoten @Piwipete!!! π π
Thank you @-Kiki-!!! Do you also have lootjes with friends? Sorry i have NO idea what the English word is for that!!! It means that you put names on a small paper and you get one paper out and you make a surprise gift for that person AND you make a small poem!!! π
And I did not know that you also celebrate Sinterklaas in Belgium @Fleurke!! π

I do lootjes with my family! It has become a tradition since we don't do it at school anymore. πΌ
Did anybody who celebrated it yesterday had a nice time and get nice gifts? π I got from Rituals the Sakura body cream (Organic Rice Milk & Cherry Blossom) even when it was little bit more expensive than 10 Euros!! π₯°π₯° I use most of times with 0% because it is better for the skin but this is really nice too so it is a very nice gift and i told him that!! But because you have a lootje it is always a surprise who has to buy you a gift until everybody got it! π
