ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Thank you to all the people who have helped to make this book possible: Martine and her colleagues at Kosmos Publishers; and everyone at Murdoch Books who believed in, and worked on, the English version. Forever grateful! LIJNS.nl for the wonderful marble. Annemieke Boots Ceramics for the delightful ceramics which I work with and eat from with pleasure every day. The ladies from By Mölle and Evert Groot for the most beautiful linen. My lovely girlfriend Eveline who took one of the pics. And graphic designer Rosa, who combined everything and made it into a beautiful book. Thanks!
