On my recent European trip, I got to visit the town of Edam, and got to sample the local cheeses, it was fantastic.

In 1984, I was an exchange student living in Delft, Holland. Every Thursday was a Farmers Market. Stalls were set up in the town square, and up and down the surrounding roads/canals. I was buying fresh cheese - Gouda and Edam every week.

The Dutch students we were living with had a standing order of having 8 cases of Heineken delivered to our living quarters (2nd & 3rd floors of a townhouse) every week. (there were 5 of us living there).

Needless to say, I love the Dutch!
