With some very minor exceptions, that same post could have been written by me. I don’t know if it is just a Canadian living in Holland similarity or what but it sounds like we could almost be the same person.
Think it took me 5 yrs to figure out that keukenstroop is molasses. Figured that out while trying to make our own graham crackers. Ended up being too much effort and only made it once lol. Anyways I am so glad I found your blog – gives me a sense of something from “home” is close by.

Now I know who to call if I have a customer consumer complaint!! :) And can totally relate to the Dutch "bluntness". I am still having trouble just smiling and nodding and not baring the claws and gouging eyes out. Melissas last blog post... Awesome Video!

I love number 24, it is so true. I have also found that there is a one month rule - they are not allowed to respond to any type of customer complaint for one full month. I am sure they have targets for it and everything! Heathers last blog post... Could They Get Any Slower?

Love your list! I dont have as much appreciation for this place like you do because you've been here longer. The thick skin statement is true. If you dont have it here, your more of a target for the rude, *ahem* dutch. lol Decoras last blog post... 1-800-Rent-A-Kid

Well WOW! That is an impressive list, and it’s a good exercise for all of us I think. I love all the lessons you’ve learned and how you have personally developed. I made stamppot boerkenkool this week and Mehmet loved it. YUM! He loves DZ drop too – I picked the right guy! Anyway, nice twist on the meme!
