No Syrup


I had waffles this morning for breakfast, but I had no syrup.

Warm homemade waffles are a welcome, satisfying breakfast on a cold winter day. Waffles drenched in syrup are a traditional brunch and breakfast favorite in the United States, where I lived for a while.

In Spain we usually eat them with whipped cream and chocolate on top. Please, don't get me wrong, I looooove chocolate, but I don't know, today, when I was eating my waffles, I missed syrup. It's usually the small things what you miss the most.

So, many of you have spent some time abroad. What is it that you miss?

PLEASE, COMMENT!!

The time for CADBURY CREME EGGS is here!! I used to eat loads when I lived in Ireland, they are simply out of this world. The egg has a milk chocolate shell, with a white and yellow fondant filling designed to resemble the yolk and white of an egg. Anyone travelling to Ireland or England soon???

I miss US milkshakes, Belgian beer (and chocolates), German bread, Swedish girls...

But of course, as a friend used to say, travelling is just a way of missing your home properly!
