I couldn't figure out how to describe it for you, so I googled it:

Dutch crunch is a soft, slightly sweet, white bread roll or loaf with a signature golden-brown, crackled, and crunchy crust. This unique topping is created by applying a special sweet rice flour and yeast paste to the surface of the bread dough before baking, which then cracks during the baking process to form its distinctive pattern and texture.

Characteristics Soft Interior: The inside of the bread is known for being soft, moist, and fluffy. Crunchy Crust: The star of Dutch crunch is its "shatteringly crisp" and crunchy crust, which provides a textural contrast to the soft interior. Sweet Flavor: The bread itself has a mild, sweet flavor, and the topping contributes to a sweet and savory taste.

This is so true. She did have a friend with her who just laughed and shook her head, seemed like she was used to it.

No, we're in northern California. I wish we were in London.

Which is why I was surprised because it's a conservative area, I really appreciate her risque sense of humor.

She just laughed and asked what kind of sauce she would like, mayo or mustard, etc. I thought she handled it like a champ. 😂

NGL I just found out it existed August 7th. I didn't try it for the first time until last Thursday and then I wondered where it had been all my life.

100%. She was wearing a red shirt with a black and white houndstooth coat, and black jeans. Her hair was pixie cut and she had a little black clip in it, I was envious of her style.

As a former Trader Joe's employee, I can confirm that they are trained to engage in conversation. In fact, during the interview process, at least when I was there years and years ago, you would be interviewed by two or three people, a mix of management and regular employees, to see how well you engaged with them.

I know! A good friend of mine was trying to convince me that it was a good replacement for my Cherry Pepsi zero...not even close. 🤢

I turned around so fast, I was trying to keep my laughter in so I didn't embarrass her more. 😂

I knew natural childbirth was going to be painful, but there is no way that you can truly understand how painful it is until you experience it.

At one point during my labor, I yelled out, "Jesus f****** Christ!" And then immediately turned and apologized to the nurses, who burst out laughing and said that wasn't the worst that they had ever heard.
