Poffertjes for breakfast? He's lucky to have you as his godfather.

Arnon

Do you bake poffertjes yourself? Since I cannot find fresh ones in Belgium, I buy packs of it in AH but it tastes awful. Anyway, your godson did not miss a great match. The only thing I discovered last night was that the attention span of the average Hollander is about 90 minutes.

All you'll need is a poffertjespan, which I think you can also buy at most dutch supermarkets or the Blokker, V&D and Hema.

Thank you! If I find a poffertjespan, I can upgrade my Sunday morning brunch with poffertjes!

A nice little thing a friend of mine, who loves football and Dutch food, said today:
"Alter, wer Poffertjes hat, der braucht so nen verkackten Titel nicht. So siehts aus."

Liberté

The Dutch soccer team may have lost, (after a very ugly game). But today Roman Polanski is a free man again. At least free in France.

Polanski and soccer?

Well, i don't know. Somehow it's ''intellectual'' to rape a thirteen year old child? Soccer: happy that Alonso survived the attack on his live. For the rest it was pretty much equal.

Sometimes "justice" can become as big a spectacle as soccer. How does "intellectual" come into this?

Carlos

Something i have seen on television half year ago or so, a few french ''intellectuals'' more or less saying it was not only ok but even sort of heroicly funny that Polanski seduiced this 13 year old child. Fans of the book Lolita maybe? Never read that one. Did you?

Milan

I will refrain from saying something unkind.

Leonie Stemfoort

Beste Arnon,

Waarschijnlijk herinner je je Leonie Stemfoort uit Eindhoven nog wel. Zij reageerde een aantal jaren geleden zeer enthousiast op jouw contactadvertentie, waarin jij aangaf op zoek te zijn naar de ideale vrouw. Jij schreef haar minstens even enthousiast terug. Leonie gaat deze week met pensioen en dan heeft zij dus alle tijd om met jou op vakantie te gaan. Goed idee?

Met vriendelijke groet,

Elise Coumou (een collega die het allerbeste met Leonie voorheeft)

Onze suikeroom?

Hmm. Poffertjes with powdered sugar.
It seems to me you interpreted the word "suikeroom" rather literal here. Your godsons own Willy Wonka.

Bakugan

Arnon,
Yes, indeed Bakugan (toys and cards) - it is a new rage among children and teen's. Like Pokemon was about ten years ago.

Dear Carlos,

"I will refrain from saying something unkind."

Don't keep the more interesting comments on this blog to your self....

Sometimes it is better to leave things to the reader's imagination.

Carlos

Thats not good for you, higher chance of a heartattack.

Dear Carlos,

I know, I know
but in this case I would really appreciate it if you could add your words to my imagination.....

yours,

Eric W.

Reading the novel Lolita is really ok, don't worry about it.
