Today I visited my very dear sister in spirit living in Kokkola, Ostrobothnia of Finland, and couldn't resist shooting some photos with my cellphone camera (hence the poor quality to some of the pictures, I apologize). Ever since I first saw this tremendous house her husband has planned and built with his own hands, I've claimed it to be the number one gingerbread house of the region, as if it had been picked straight out of the fairytale about Hansel and Gretel. With one exception: the "witch" of this house happens to be a stunning blonde...
... well, of course there has to be cookies and sweets like in the fairytale...
My son tries the old piano out...
A fair size oven...
Let's take a look into the garden to see if we can find the cage of Hansel and Gretel...
A fair amount of the most lovely roses and other flowers aswell...
... and the "lady of the mansion" (she does not look one bit frightening does she, but I guess we can not be careful enough?)...
Oh! This must be it!
...hmmmmm... no...
... the methods of modern witches seems to be somewhat different...
We leave the gingerbreadhouse stuffed with goodies but not at all threatened. I will make sure to bring my Nikon next time, but thanks for the sneakpeek, L and D!
