About me
My name is Yvonne Eijkenduijn. I live with my husband Boris (who I affectionately call Bo) our cats, Bonbon, Truffel and Cupcake and one bunny rabbit, Gustav (Mahler) in an old clock shaped farmhouse from 1932. I was born and raised in The Netherlands but since my late teens I’ve lived in America, England and now in Belgium. I’ve renovated five homes, raised 16 kittens and baked a lot of cakes.
I am a small business owner, author of 3 cookery books and a photographer. I used to be the author of the Yvestown Blog which was very successful between 2008 and 2017. My homes have been featured in magazines and books worldwide, I have been on TV and I used to write a lovely weekly column for a Belgian/Dutch newspaper. I then retired and now I’m ready for a new adventure; the Yvestown Blog version 2.0
I love cake and Christmas, both equally.
