A real mixed bag.<BR/><BR/>I'm very anti-abortion, not on religious grounds, but on human grounds, and what you described here sums it up for me. This is the 21st Century for goodness sake, and there are so many other effective forms of birth control. As far as I am concerned, once a baby is "planted" in there, it's no longer just the woman's body, so it's not just her body she has "control" over when she is killing another human being. I shudder just thinking about it.<BR/><BR/>I now relinquish my soap box. :-)<BR/><BR/>I love Marmite, by the way. And Ovaltine too.

People should stop whining about this way of feeding and do it all over the place! It's entertainment, useful, and not sad because that's the way nature goes :)<BR/><BR/>2nd vid: hahaha had a good laugh.<BR/><BR/>Marmite: I think I might have had a small taste..didn't like it. <BR/>Don't know if there are pure Dutch dishes: but for instance 'mashed potatoes and mashed apples' add syrup and that's real good food!<BR/><BR/>Abortion: tough call, use condoms or alternatives. But if even when using the above you get pregnant..and you find it out quick enough I can understand abortion in most cases. Probably a traumatic experience nonetheless.Arjanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07889112872843077825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092261346236962635.post-46523264077690983912007-11-01T23:46:00.000+00:002007-11-01T23:46:00.000+00:00haha, no we dont microwave them on location.
