Aldrig stoppe med at spise

"Never stop eating"

At 8.30 on Sunday April 4 I arrived at my Polish friends place for breakfast. They had invited some of us over for breakfast and told us to all bring a dish traditional from our home country. However when I got there they had already prepared so much food - there was chicken lamb (a chicken in the shape of a lamb), bread, sausages, different types of sausages, eggs, a pickle/pea/egg salad, and there was still more in the oven! Then when everyone else arrived, we had bread and cake from Switzerland, pancakes from Russia, sweet bread from Austria, and several types of food from Italy. There was so much food on the table that it had to go onto two tables.

Only a very small portion of the food.


After the first round of eating was done at 9.40 we all did a Polish vodka shot to help us digest since we were so full. That was a big first for me, but it actually did help! And we were able to move on to the desserts - there was about 5 or 6 different types of desserts that everyone had made...for breakfast.


I moved from the table only to go to the washroom and to play a card game (which lasted maybe an hour and a half), other than that from 8.30-17.00 I was sitting at the breakfast/lunch/dinner table just eating. When we left there was still so much food left over! I was able to take enough for breakfast and dinner the following day as well.


So at 17.00 I left and bicycled to another friend's place where I enjoyed dessert dinner and games night! Everyone who came brought a dessert: fruit salad; Belgian chocolate; brownies; apple pie, cake, and crumble; banana bread...there was really too much food to say what exactly everything was!



All in all, it was a successful day and I have never eaten (almost non-stop) so much food in my life!!
