Well, if you haven’t heard it yet via the Instagrams and the folks who assemble there... then I’m a little surprised but it’s totally fine 🤪 First question - Due date? Come September (9th if we are trying to be specific) of this year, our family is going to grow by a mini person 😬 [...]

Hello humans 😊
This is where you learn about me I suppose, though anyone reading this right now most likely knows all the boring details ;)
I am Jessica Rose Peters-Hagenouw.
(Always thought I'd be able to pronounce my married name but hey, life doesn't go as we plan.)
June 11, 1995, tis the day Robert and Bonnie Peters received the most adorable, amazing, wonderful, surprise 3rd child they could have dreamed of.
Speaking of being the third child, I have an older brother and an older sister.
Both of whom are married and have wee little families of their own, making 'Aunty Jess' another name I go by.
I grew up and have lived all of my years up till November 2015 in Saskatchewan, Canada.
Making summers that are extremely short and winters that never end, vast open spaces, northern lights, unthinkable amounts of mosquitoes, lakes, forests and people waving to you on the grid road all different things that mean = Home.
But Home is not where I'll be for some time.
My husband is a Dutchman, living in Europe.
Therefore I too have been living in Europe for the last few months.
The reason I started this little blog/journal/writing thing, is to document a bit of my "whole new world," for those at home who wont be awake at 3:00 am wanting to hear about how I couldn't find flour at the grocery store.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek into my little life 😊

So we bought a second, or I guess I should I say, third house, a couple months back 💁🏻♀️ Hubster found a bank repo for sale in a town 15 or so minutes away from us, so we went and were the first people to take a look. The rest is history 🤪 This one [...]
Italian (or not) Bread
Italian (or not) Bread This recipe comes together easily and pretty quickly, as far as bread recipes go... two things I appreciate when it comes to bread making! It can also be tweaked and personalized very easily to go with whatever flavour you’re looking for 👌🏻 Enjoy and not only good luck making it but [...]
Below Deck – A Basement Renovation
To refresh your memory from long ago, we had completed the upstairs renovations in our home to a large degree but the basement was another story. An unfinished, dirty and dark story...🤪 We decided on creating three ‘rooms’ in the area left over after having situated the laundry room under our stairs. Mike moved the water [...]
Annnnd She’s Back!
After a sabbatical (well, not really a sabbatical at all, since typically those are paid amounts of time off, which I did not get) I am back to attempt writing here once again! 😀 That's all, you can go on your way now. No, really that is petty much all I have to say on [...]
Airing Out Our Dirty Laundry
Here I was thinking I’d told all there was to tell about our own homes Reno’s but somehow I failed to mention that our basement got (almost completely) redone?? 🙈 Well, it did and it’s about time you knew 😏 If I wrote about the entire basement in one post, it would get lengthy so [...]
