My Husband is a native of the Netherlands and I found when visiting his family the Dutch are tall hobbits. They eat 11 times a day and they are not fat! The secret to the tall hobbits health is their food is without a lot of chemicals we have here in America and they eat small portions. Plus everyone walks or rides bikes because their cities and towns are so small.

An example of the Dutch people's eating habits, dinner is served 5:30pm, dinner includes dessert, some kind of vla, which is a sweet custard that comes in assorted flavors. Around 8pm everyone has tea and a cookie, then around 9pm cheese and meat platter with chips and alcoholic beverage or cola. I won't go into breakfast and lunch right now, I don't have time! Basically the Dutch eat non stop all day long!

After taking a week long break from my art I have to make an offering to the guardian of the creativity gate. Please Let me in kind and goodhearted gods of creativity!
