Sandcastle's Dream: Learning to live like an Expat in the Netherlands

Me and Dordrecht Town

I have 5 more days here in Dortrecht and hate the feel of the clock ticking and in no time I'll be back in boring Singapore working! damn! Irony of life... when having a good time, you wish the clock stop... when you having hell, you just wanna yell... "damn, wish its over sooner!"

I woke up this morning by the warm kiss from my love and was also served with a cup of tea! This is Life ! Don't you think? haha.. but didn't last, Jos had to rush for work and me all alone once again with Muggy the cat! That is still life... cos then I can now do whatever I want with the house! First thing First, I decide to make myself a traditional Dutch Breakfast.. and I will for the next 5 days... I remember Jos make a egg sandwich for me and claimed its typical dutch.. I would think its more typical Jos, because he simply love eggs.. so this is what he made:

Typical Jos Breakfast

This morning I thought... typical Jos or typical Dutch breakfast today? And I decide to make myself a typical dutch! I'd think I need to start getting use to having bread instead of the fried bee hoon I have back in Singapore. Jos had problem when we were on ski mountain last week... cracking his head trying to think what I would like for breakfast that is closest to being Singa on a French Alps! Stress much? Poor guy! haha.. So here is my breakfast today:-

Typical Dutch Breakfast

So how do you think it looks versus the typical Singa Fried Bee Hoon for Breakfast?

Typical Singa Breakfast!

If you ask me... I think the Dutch Breakfast looks healthy and better but taste? Nothing beats Singa Cha Bee Hoon with Chix Wings maybe? haha... I am starting to miss it a little. But will not trade Cha Bee Hoon for life in Holland! =)

Also, last night we cooked! According to Jos its the typical way a Dutch cooks an Indonesian simple dinner, so here are the pictures:
