Our posts have been getting less and less frequent and I apologize. We've hit a dry spell with ideas. But this latest post about the flag was awesome (in my humble opinion). It really got me thinking. (That and I got an awesome email from a friend today) I have 4 ideas for post stories. Each will take some detailed research though. Yet each I really want to do. But which would you rather hear? This is also kind of a test to see who reads this here bloggy or who would actually take the time to comment. If no one votes I'll just pick one and write it up when I have time. If one is chosen however, I'll be even more determined to get it written in a timely manner.
Here are your choices.
1) But I thought the Dutch flag was orange? Was there ever another type? (The answer is yes... maybe?)
2) What does Spain have to do with the founding of the Netherlands? I thought they were practically an offshoot of German? I touched on this briefly (2 years ago!) but there are more juicy details.
3) On that note. Why isn't Belgium part of the Netherlands? They are so similar, right?
4) Carrots used to be purple and the it's the Dutch who turned them orange. (Yes, you read that correctly and aren't going insane... yet)
5)?? Other. There are plenty of other ideas but my brain is misfiring at this late hour. Your turn to come up with them.
Please, Please. Leave comments on what you think. I'd / we'd like to know. Cool, cool, cool.
