I'm your typical eggs and bacon breakfast gal, maybe even a slice of toast and butter if I'm feeling adventurous! Recently I had a fantastic opportunity to visit the KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Pop Up in Union Square, San Francisco at 9:00am in the morning and got to partake in the traditional Dutch Stroopwafels for breakfast!
