In Holland we say when you become 50: you'll see Abraham for a man)or Sarah( for a woman).I embroidered Abraham on a scarf with the text:Congratulations.I thought it would be funny as a gift for a 50th birthday.

Very nice Gerry...what's the history behind the saying? I have never heard that before. :-)

the history, perhaps you´re getting old and wise. because it´s also said you know at 50 where Abraham get´s the mustard.

Great. You "dutch " peple have some very cute traditions. I had a friend who was Dutch and we had such fun teaching her "Aussie"Slang ,while she gave us some great traditions from her homeland. I JUST LOVE IT well done.

Sorry meant to say "people" .It's very early in the morning here . Couldn't sleep so what else there to do. ???
yes we Dutch are funny sometimes :)
In the part of the country I now live they place a life size Abraham or Sarah in your front garden. When my husband got his we found a straw figure on a bicycle wearing a waterpolo cap on the front porch. With some cute saying. Guess what my husband hobbies are. Although they forgot the postage stamps. Originating from the Hague that custom was a new one to me. There you may get a 2 ft sort of gingerbread cake in the shape of a bearded man.

Super leuk. Ik zou dit patroon graag willen gebruiken. Echter de link waar je naar verwijst doet het niet meer. Weet je een andere manier hoe ik er aan kan komen?
Hoor het graag,
