Here's a little squeaker to give y'all a smile.

He sounds like one of those things you blow air into at parties

I was with you on visiting the Netherlands (I have, in the Eindhoven/ Schijndel area, many years ago, and loved it) and Amsterdam, which I haven’t, but you lost me with the herring.

I love pickled herring, was introduced to it at a young age. My great grandparents came to the US from Denmark.

This is way beyond a normal Dutch breakfast. Sounds more like a good desert.

Most people eat sandwiches (mostly brown bread) for breakfast. Some with margarine/butter and hagelslag, (chocolate sprinkles) , others like it with cheese or jams . Or we eat musli with yoghurt. Some like a croissant or buns for breakfast. A boiled egg in the weekend and orange juice.

My mother told me how her Danish relatives would spread lard on their bread, called it "fit" (fat?).

You want me to squat for who?!

Plenty of cockerels to go around and somehow she's decided that I'm the best option

You're the dominant

PS I do like herring. But many people dont. And after eating it your breath really stinks.

Over here (right next to Mexico) people seem to like menudo. However, it makes your breath stink as well and tastes as bad as bad breath.

She looks like she thinks she's giving you the best gift ever and you just rejected it.

This was 50 years ago, and now that I think of it, it might have been more of an open-faced sandwich, on a roll sliced in half, so much like the butter and hagelslag. At that point in life, I had not yet discovered chocolate croissants, which has much the same flavor profile.

I just remembered thinking that chocolate for breakfast was the most wonderfully decadent thing I’d ever encountered!
