Waffle me this

Yes, it's true. Your Marmoset has been overseas, basking in the European goodness. In the course of my travels, I made my way to Brussels, Belgium, where I experienced a culinary delight: the actually-Belgian waffle.

Should you find yourself in Brussels, staring at the famous peeing child fountain, take a left and buy a waffle at the first wafflery on your right. Touristy? Yes. The greatest waffle of all time? Also yes.















Our dear reader might also be interested to experience a bit of German-language-based hilarity. Your word of the day is:

Wafflewerfenwaffen

Which translates into "Waffle throwing weapons." As you can imagine, this proved useful several times in the course of a one-day trip to Belgium, and our threats to employ said weapon had the Flemish bellowing for mercy.

Tune in later, to learn about fun with the Dutch language. Dutch: like German, only even more whimsical and ridiculous sounding.
