Most dogs do gobble things up just below the speed of light, but picky eaters aren't uncommon. Like with mine, 3 love any cheese, and one won't touch it. Unless its on pizza. :confused:

What kind of Lab? Black, Golden or Chocolate?

I know many small dogs are picky eaters, but not labs, they use to eat anything with out tasting lol...He is black/chocolate, his mother is a Golden retriver and his dad is a chocolate lab, but he is black with a brown shine to it :)

Mange tak lol, hvor er du fra siden du kan dansk ?

Jeg er fra America - jeg bor i Nevada. Jeg boede i Danmark i to år, i Helsingør og Allerød, på Amager, og i Ålborg (det var svært - det føltes som et nyt sprog). Det var næsten 25 år siden. Jeg har ikke øvet min Dansk meget - før få Dansker at tale med.

Det Danske sprog er let at lære, men umuligt at udtale. Jeg lød aldrig som en Dansker.

Jeg elskede de sennep markerne i Helsingør om sommeren. Og viennebrød. Jeg har søgt og søgt, men der er intet i America som det.
 
English is the preferred language for
public communications on this forum.

How about providing a translation? :)

Welcome! I hope you like it here. Don't apologize - your English is probably better than my Danish.

Many thanks. Where are you from, since you speak Danish?

I'm from America - I live in Nevada. I lived in Denmark for two years, in Helsingør and Allerød, on (the island of) Amager, and in Ålborg (that was hard - it felt like a new language). That was almost 25 years ago. I haven't practiced my Danish much - too few Danes to talk to.

The Danish language is easy to learn, but impossible to pronounce. I never sounded like a Dane.

I loved the mustard fields in Helsingør in the summer. And pastries. I have looked and looked, but there's nothing in America like that.

Yeah, I got a little too excited to use my Danish. That's enough showing off, I guess.

Yep, it's called a "Danish" in America. I thought it was funny to find that the Danes call them "Vienna Bread". I wonder what they call them in Vienna.

American danishes are nothing like the real thing - less quality and more sugar. Like eating at Taco Bell instead of a real restaurant in Mexico.

I used to go to the bakeries in Denmark and try a new pastry and a new type of bread every week. I actually made an entry in my budget for pastries every week. My favorite was the trekant.

For the others here, "trekant" means triangle, and a trekant is a triangular-shaped pastry, like the third picture down and third one over on this page. The long side of the triangle is about as long as a normal person's forearm. It has a flaky, soft crust between thin layers of cream, jelly, custard, and/or chocolate. Danes will typically cut them into small slices to share with a group of people. I am 6' 5", and I had a young man's metabolism at the time. I would eat a whole trekant by myself. Yes, Americans eat too much.

That would explain why translations of Kierkegaard have such difficult sentences.

You have been to tons of exciting places. I might have to check out your blog sometime.
