You are good Julia... a dutch girl- eh?
My fave flower in the world is the Tulip... my dream would to be to go and get some REAL tulips. Take a picture of me in the middle of a field that is ever going of them. I'd be in heaven.

I remember this being served when I was a kid. Nasty.

Our poor food was spagetti with sauce that was made to strech further by adding cream of mushroom soup. We also had veggie garden and chicken coop which filled 2 freezers. But we also had kale and sausage (stamppot van boerenkool met worst) poor dutch farmer food. Funny now I serve kale stamppot to my kids as a treat.

I soooo, got ya beat, Dude. Try Sauerkraut and Weenies. And, for dessert, peanut butter and syrup for dipping bread in. Wonder Bread, of course. Can't imagine how I learned bad habits that would lead me to 3FC. Turns out the Amish eat the PB and syrup on "special occasions", like weddings, funerals and such. Of course, they burn about 100,000 cals a day, so tain't no biggie for them.

How do you say "Bon Voyage" in Spanish. Hasta la vista? Vaya con dios?

Anyhow I'm wishing both of them to SusanB as she leaves to do her good deeds!

And I'll throw in a bouquet of tulips for good measure!

Bon Voyage, Susan! Stay safe!

Love the tulips! Tulips are a favorite of mine, too. I have some planted in front of my house. They usually start blooming sometime around Easter and I always think that they look like a bunch of Easter eggs before they open up!
