Dutch Coffee Houses
February 20, 2012
Okay, so Chris and Birgit........do you know what you started with that comment about Dutch Coffee Houses? I honestly thought it was a brothel. I did! :) But the moment I typed it into Google.......out came the truth! Dutch Coffee Houses are.......well, am I allowed to say this? Well, I can't imagine why not. Because I'm sure half the world doesn't know. This would educate them; like it educated me! Although, according to Papa Brewin, he was very well aware of what they were. How exactly do you know that, Dad? Hmmmm?
Anyhow, for those who may be in search of some, well, certain mostly illegal grasses that are rolled up in paper and smoked; a Dutch Coffee House might be the place for you. I didn't read far enough along to determine if other types of..........well, drugs.......are available at these places. I just know I won't be going to one! I think the Belgian Coffee Houses sound nicer; real coffee and cakes. Although, I'm already too fluffy as it is; I don't really need to eat any cakes. :P But if it 's cakes or grasses; well, I'm going to take the cakes. Every single time! :) :) :)
So, there you have it. Dutch Coffee Houses. Learned something new today, didn't you? Thanks to my Belgian girls. If I can get it worked out; I'll bring you some really good coffee from Canada. Tim's! Tim's yummy yummy coffee. :)
Now, the current dilemma for the trip is whether or not I should purchase a tablet to bring along with me, or if I should just bring my laptop. I can't seem to post a new blog post from my iTouch, so I need to come up with Plan B. Suggestions are most welcome. I need to do some research. And what else would you like to read about? I could, in theory, post something every couple days, but I would probably bore you all to tears with my rambling.........as Mama Brewin said: You just talked nonesense in Post One and rambled about nothing. LOL. Okay, Mum. :P
Anyhow, what are you interested it? Trip preparations? Dilemma's? Tablet confusion? Pre-trip shopping? I might need some wardrobe and footwear advice. I am stressing over that already. I need comfy shoes for walking, dressy shoes for fancy restaurant visits and of course THE CONCERT!! But I also have to walk to and from the train in my dress shoes, and I don't do so well with that, so I might need to bring my big red Carlos bag with me and hide the dressy shoes in him until I get the the venue, and then change from the comfy shoes.........SEE? Shoe stress!! And yes, this is really how my brain works. Round and round and round. And in the end, I'll bring five pairs and only wear two. So.........shoe stress. LOL. Coupled with my horrible problem of over-packing, I could be in some serious trouble!
So, I'll leave you all to stew about that for a while. Any advice or thoughts, of course they are gladly welcome. :) I'm having so much fun with the blog, readers. SOOOOOO much fun! Thanks for tuning in and I look forward to hearing from you!
