Someone stole your stroopwafel, Sam?? Aren’t those the little syrupy waffle sandwich things? How did that happen?
Well, in Amsterdam they're about the size of a dinner plate and bendy when warm, but yeah. :D
So, when I got there they had just run out of the waffle part, and I got to watch them toss dough on the irons and make more, but it meant that I was at the head of a bit of a queue -- we had all ordered and were just waiting for our orders. Mine came out first and I watched him spread caramel and chocolate on it and put it in a paper wrapper, and then he held it up and the guy next to me just reached over and took it.
I, being me and half-Canadian, thought oh, that must have been his, I was mistaken that it was mine. So I just kind of let it happen. The guy walked away immediately, but the cashier (seemingly the wife of the man making them) saw it happen and went running after him yelling THAT'S NOT YOURS loudly. She snatched it from him before he had taken a bite and brought it back to me, meanwhile scolding the man making the stroopwafels in what I assume was Dutch. It was definitely yelling.
It wasn't a big deal, it's just funny to say "Someone stole my stroopwafel." And also illustrates that while I have no problem yelling when I think someone is in the wrong, if I don't understand what's happening I tend to assume that patiently waiting will fix the problem. And to be fair, it did!
Inspired by ‘Stroopwafels’ which is a delicious Dutch waffle cookie made of two layers of sweet baked dough held together by caramel filling. Stroopwafels are very populair in the Netherlands and all over the world.
The headpiece is inspired by the best way to eat a stroopwafel, by putting your stroopwafel on top of your cup of tea or coffee, the heat will warm up the cookie and soften the syrup which makes it even more delicious.
The bodysuit is inspired by the Delft Blue can that contains stroopwafels.
So, I've just finished watching season 2 of Shadow and Bone (and only just started reading the books) and I need Wesper fanfiction writers to know something.
These are stroopwafels. They're a type of cookie, and not like a belgian waffle. They're not a breakfast food, they're a snack. The best snack you'll ever have, but a snack none the less.
That's it, that's all I wanted to say. The fics are amazing, just plz don't describe the characters eating 'a stack of stroopwafels' for a meal, because I've tried that when I was to lazy to make lunch, and it doesn't feel good afterwards.
