Over here in the cute little country of the almost blackened Oranges -summer seems to stay forever - I forwarded your post to my favorite Travel Agency. They told me they want to book planes and hotels for the Day of Days, but you have to be more specific, now your earlier forecasts didn’t follow through. Please inform us at the earliest possible moment he is leaving for the Russian island that will bear the name of Monument Dump, after his gold plated statue has been dropped by drone.

I herewith declare I will join. I guess it will be what we used to call ‘an American party’, meaning all the guests bring their own carrot cakes, ceasar salads, brownie puddings, tacos ( the ban will be lifted as soon as the Taco Tweeter leaves), home brew beers, party donuts etc.?

In that case I will offer typically Dutch treats:

Pannenkoeken

Pannenkoeken

Stroopwafels

Stroopwafels

Krentenbollen

Krentenbollen

Beerenburg

Maallust beers

Maallust bieren

Herring

Oranjebitter

And of course the Frisian treat of Oranjekoeken:

Is your place big enough, Allan?
