Lovely that you were able to visit. It always brings me to tears to think of how young all those boys, for really most of them were just that, were.

Regarding posting a photo of me? Not allowed 🚫. I prefer to remain Karen (in name only) and let the photos and better descriptions of them be the ℹ️.
Thank you for editing and explaining Kibbeling, Grampies! I just assumed everyone who has travelled here to the Netherlands would know what this is. Most sincerely appreciated!
2 weeks agoSo great to see a journal from Karen! Please keep it up …. It’s worthwhile work.
2 weeks agoI looked it up:
Kibbeling is a popular Dutch street food that consists of battered and deep-fried pieces of fish, typically cod, often served with a mayonnaise-based garlic sauce or tartar sauce. It's a favorite snack, especially during the summer months, and can be found at fish stalls and markets across the Netherlands.
Key aspects of kibbeling:

Kibbeling is made from chunks of white fish, such as cod, which are coated in a batter and deep-fried.
Preparation:
The fish is usually seasoned with spices before being coated in a batter made with flour, eggs, and sometimes beer or milk.
Serving:
Kibbeling is often served with a mayonnaise-based garlic sauce or tartar sauce, and can also be enjoyed with fries.
Popularity:
Kibbeling is a well-known and beloved Dutch snack, particularly enjoyed in coastal areas.
Wow. we found it! Be sure to reply, to confirm that all is working right.
Two suggestions:
1. Although many blog sites put the latest entry first, the sort of tradition with cycle blogs is to make it like a book - that is, page 1,2, 3 in that kind of order. Cycleblaze handles this by asking if you want your current entry to come at the beginning or the end, and so you would tell it at the end.
2. The photo in your profile is nice, but have you aged since? We are curious to see Karen today!
Thank you, Grampies! I am still in awe of this day.
