Need a star? Guess my country.
I was given one by a kind soul and feel the need to pass along the good deed.

So...if you can tell me what country - besides the US - I have lived in, I will make a donation to DU in your name.

7. Besides the US....
I lived abroad as a teen. Um, let me think of a clue...

In the country where I lived, they like to eat chocolate sprinkles on toast for breakfast. Yummy!

22. Nope, but we did use to travel to Antwerp to buy Doritos
They had an American store there, and it's amazing the things you miss when you can't have them!

Hagelslaag - my fave toast topper.

25. Why, THANK YOU!
Ya know, this has been a rather shitty year for me...not just on the political spectrum either--I sometimes feel I have been on the "If anything can go wrong, it will" treadmill! An unexpected gift like that is a real spirit lifter!

Have you ever had Nutella? Sinfully delicious on toast, and brutal on peanut butter--it's hazelnut and chocolate, but you add peanut butter and it tastes like a Reese's sandwich.

27. Yes, I love nutella
A little Nutella on a baguette, a cappuccino, and I am a happy happy girl.

I hope this is the beginning of a whole lot of things going right for you.

:hug:

28. Me too!
I had the same breakfast on more than one occasion, except I used crusty bread (Italy). I'll have to try some of those chocolate sprinkles on toast--what a wonderful way to start your day! Wonder if they are sold in here in the provincial US of A?

Thanks, again!
