Something About Me
- Jenn in Holland
- The story begins like this: A couple of years ago my husband got a crazy notion in his head that returning to school after years in the professional world might be a good idea. So he and I along with our three children left our suburban life in the U.S. and traded it for a new adventure in The Netherlands.
The saga continues like this: A year of post graduate study was so much fun, we figured we'd stay a while longer. Working in a new field, attending new schools and living in a new city, I dare say we have settled into a rhythm in our expat lives.
This blog is the record I keep of our experiences here; good, bad and hilarious. Intended as an outlet for my expression, this is the place for me to say my something.
I welcome you warmly.

I just couldn't pass up the photo op once I saw the sign!
shaz-
ReplyDeletethere's a book? Oh, that sounds hilarious!
Does it come with a free doughnut?
ReplyDeletefunny! I saw that a lot when I was in China last year...just lost in translation. Good one!
ReplyDeleteHa! That's funny! Happy WW!!
ReplyDeleteLOL...be afraid!
ReplyDeleteCorn and cop? you have the right to get kernels between your teeth...
ReplyDeleteHehehehe! Thanks for the smile ... :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you explained it. I was wondering what the Cop was suppose to be.
ReplyDeleteBless, wonder if anyone has ever told them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot. Now this is funny. Tranlating can be tricky can't it. Happy WW.
ReplyDeleteFour Big Golden WW stars!
ReplyDelete****
Wordless with delight.
Take care,
Frances
Cop?! Ok then! Happy WW =)
ReplyDeleteToo funny!
ReplyDeleteMmmmm...a menu:)
ReplyDelete1.20 for corn and a cop? Not a bad deal.
ReplyDeleteI love Europe. :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like some of the signs in Chinatown in San Francisco. LOL!
ReplyDeleteHmmm....guess than is better than "Corn ON Cop"!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh now, I see Corn n' Cop. I am a little slow; it took me two visits to see what was awry.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a McDonald's menu overseas. Very funny - do you get extra protection with your corn?
ReplyDeleteHappy WW.

Well, I do love a man in uniform...
ReplyDeleteI'd rather have a pizza, lol!
ReplyDeleteThat's too funny! Is it a real menu?
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha. So great! I bet you have a whole LIST of that sort of thing by now!
ReplyDeleteOne 'cop' please, but then no thanks. :) I changed my mind.
ReplyDeleteYeah, there is fun to find everywhere... *giggles*
ReplyDeleteGreat capture - me, I just want to capue some Cole slaw...
hmm I must be the Dutchspeaking foreigner on here : I did not see the mistake until I read the comments. :)
ReplyDeleteA cute female cop hopefully. :p
ReplyDeleteI think the funnier part is the exaggerated "N" between corn and cop. That kills me.
ReplyDeleteI really don't like cops, in general. But I do like to cop a feel every once in awhile. And even feel a cop, if he's nice.
Hmm, no cops for me thanx! :)
ReplyDeleteLOL!! Happy WW!
ReplyDeleteGreat photo!!! Something is just not right...lol
ReplyDeleteTake care,
Connie
A cop salad ? must be quite indegistive !
ReplyDeletecorn and cop sounds like what my kids called it when they were little :)

ReplyDeleteNow there is something I will avoid if I ever visit.

Corn with the food police. I like the toothpick-sized holders in the corn too.
ReplyDeleteHappy WW! and thanks for stopping by my blog.
They should be arrested for murdering the language!
ReplyDeleteFunny....but "what does it all mean"??? :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday!
LOL! I think I would skip that one on the menu.
ReplyDeleteVery funny!
ReplyDeleteThey almost got it! I cracked up during my first trip to the Netherlands when I saw a hotel sign: "We are speaking English."
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenn for your comment on my law school post - I think I fixed the "link this post" thingie on my blog. Maybe it'll work.
ReplyDeleteI really do appreciate your words - it's a bit daunting to put my raw feelings out there. But that's how it is.
I always enjoy coming here to read your goings on . . . hope the rest of your day is awesome!
LOL, thats funny! I'll take a side of Cop to go, please, and make it sexy.
ReplyDeleteThis is too funny. great wordless!

ReplyDeleteNot that appetizing to me.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm think I'll go to another restaurant if I ever visit your city hehehe
