I have too many baseball caps. Why are they important to Americans and to me? We don't need them all
Danish Girlfriend is helping me declutter. She points out reasons why all this excess stuff should not matter to me, and i am starting to see these excess things no longer as importamnt extensions of myself, but for what they are just things that are not serving me well.
She asks me simple questions about the items I have not gotten rid of like, “You only have one head, do you need all these hats?” Well if you don't, there really isn’t any reason to keep it; is there? “No.”
We also explore why American like and wear baseball caps. Also, why do I like some of my baseball caps and others well they can be given away.
Danish Girlfriend is helping me to keep our home organized and tidy, and reduce stress and anxiety. Decluttering is hard but with Danish girlfriend, she makes it possible.

What comes first the chicken or the egg? Either answer is correct and each item has its own unique merits. Here an American sees how an egg and the issues surrounding it can illuminate his relationship with his danish girlfriend. How they buy eggs have they use eggs the types of eggs they buy.

Does she fry in Lurpak? as you don't fry in virgin olive oil - I'm sure Danish GF knows that.
@@surfsusan Danish girlfriend is a big fan of lurpak the problem is finding it on a consistent basis. We generally have to walk mile and a half to this one grocery store that has it on occasion. Apparently a lot of Danish ex pats have similar issues finding lurpak
Ahh Now I just need to get a Danish girlfriend!😆 just kidding, it's gonna be interesting to follow this series 😍 I myself have found Dana K White to be the most helpful for decluttering strategies, because she understands people who deal with struggles like these :)
I second that recommendation. Particularly love the container concept and the idea of just moving things to where you would naturally look for them, any time you see they are out of place. Life is much easier when you are not trying to fit four cubic feet of empty plastic containers into a three cubic foot space!
What was she thinking, moving in with a hoarder? 🤣🤣🤣 Yes, I am Danish (but not Danish girlfriend)
Funny Danish girlfriend series! 🇩🇰
Keep it simple! Hallelujah!
I bet girlfriend buy Ecological or Barn eggs
Where do you get these good cracklings? Iwant to try them now. ;D
A Christmas-what? Stolen? Trying to figure out what that thing is.
It's "Stollen" (Christstollen or Weihnachtsstollen, Weihnachten = Christmas), a type of fruit bread. Greetings from Austria.
When life gives you eggs... make eggnog!
Are you going to ask her father, before you "pop up the question" ? 😁
We have been to vacation in Sæby, it is beautiful. We found a lot of mussel shells and conch shells on the beach. You could also visit the Bunker Museum "Bangsbo Fort", just 15 minutes north of Sæby.
You’re off to a good start 👏You can allways visit Aalborg Zoo - they have elephants eating grass 🐘🌿☘️🦒😉😁

Sounds like a great vacation ☀️😎You may be a bit too early for the Sæby 500 ys “Market Town” jubilee on August 10th. I bet you could do a whole “philosophical” video on that topic 📚🤓😁Looking forward to the next videos 🇩🇰☀️Happy Summer 😎
The best one, I remember, was when I still went to school. Early in the morning, the news in the radio said that an aircraft was crashed in a forest on Fyn. The aircraft was full of smuggler cigarettes. They also informed that the police were very busy with another thing, so they couldn't get to the crash site immediately. So people were asked not to enter the forest. Off course, many people chose the day for a "walk" in the forest. The radio station, later had to announce that it was an April Fools' Day joke, to avoid the forest and animals getting overrun. I will never forget it, it was so funny. It was around 55 years ago.
Can you check if my favorit WWII grafiti - "Det er Best Hitler Himler" - is to be found at the museum? (I've never been) Next time you're in Vendsyssel, I'd love you to take us all to Voergård. Your enthusiam might make waves in the moat 🥰

Yes, I went to the old town. It is a splendid place just to walk around. I’m gonna have a nice meal at their restaurant. You can have a nice hotdog and get a nice meringue at their bakery and you get to talk to people I talked to a teacher who was in the 1920s shop, everyone was very enthusiastic about the old town and so was I

I bought a bottle of genuine Olive Oil. 1 Press and into the bottle. Tasted it for days after. Horrible oil.
95% of olive oil is fake. Take any oil, add color, smell, taste and sell.
After my very short investigation into refined olive oil, I couldn’t agree with you more. Thank you for watching and thank you for the encouragement.
@@sambyrod8179 There is a book "Extra Virginity: The Sublime and Scandalous World of Olive Oil" by Tom Mueller. If you haven't read it, I suggest you do, and everybody else, of course. It is insane... I love olive oil, but after reading this book, I realized that there is no was to know if oil is real or fake.
he might be right, or i should say, his Danish GF might be right, but does anyone else get the impression this guy is in an abusive relationship with his Danish Girlfriend? Shes telling him all the wrong things in his life. This is satire BTW, I dont know this guy, i dont know his Danish GF. I just liked all the expamples of how his Danish GF "corrects" all of his problems
It is all in good fun, Danish girlfriend is incredibly sweet and caring with me and I love her dearly. She has introduced me to a great number of things that I am grateful for. BTW I am in a theater group. And I’ve done a lot of improv comedy so I like to find the humorous side of things
I wouldn't use what you have for anything but sauteing. I'm curious what she prefers for that.
I agree with the Olive oil. Refined oil is not good. Olive Oil has a diverse amount of uses. As for big box stores. We have large chains in the UK. They killed the local butcher, vegetable shop and fish mongers. The big chains offered fresh produce at first, but slowly reduced them for processed and limited variety. Now the local shops are gone, we have little choice but to use them. There are a few local food shops, but they cannot compete with the prices and so only those that can afford them use them.
Thank you reactions. there’s a saying,when a danish person are born the first thing we say is why to everything
Now that I’m in a relationship with a Danish woman, I couldn’t agree more with what you are saying
Ha ha, Danish girlfriend blowing your mind again. Brace yourself and wait until she tells you about the fact that you have to be even more careful buying extra virgin olive oil because it may be fake! Olive oil scams are proliferating, especially now with the skyrocketing prices.
Danish girlfriend strikes again 🥊 watch out 😲she will soon make a decent man out of you 😁
Dana‘s girlfriend is always encouraging me to improve. I think you’re right. I’m going to be a better man than I am and I think I’m a better man than I was.it has happened withoutwithout me even noticing it.
I stretch my socks out so my ankles can breathe they're just getting broke in
Thank you that’s what I am telling my Danish girlfriend these socks are just beginning to come into their own
Danish girlfriend is correct. Also, no Dane has ever been seen in socks with no elastic band. In Denmark it may even be considered a fashion crime! 😀
You’re absolutely right whenever I’m in Denmark I feel a little bit of socks shame and I bring my best socks with me and the United States, I guess I relax my standards a bit.
If it was allowed on the plane i would bring remoulade on vacations. Thats how much i love that shih 😋
When Danish girlfriend and I are in Denmark, we stock up and bring a few in our checked luggage. You would think that the danish authorities would make an exception for remoulade because no one would use it to make an explosive device
The other problem with buying large sizes is that stuff can get stale or go bad before you use it all.
I think it's about Americans always thinking about size and discounts, as a Dane I also think about discounts and sales, but when there's something on sale I prefer to buy things in small bottles etc. for example, I prefer 3 small Heinz ketchups instead of one large one. cooking oil of 1 liter instead of 5 litres Say hello to your girlfriend
I agree. Several normal sized containers of a thing will still last you a long time. Yeah, there may be a price hit but it all depends on what the priority is for your practicality. If it's just to save you trips to the market then this strategy will work.
@@jaapodac Well you know the price of gasoline and diesel in Denmark, as we say here "what's saved is erned"😉 Shurely your girlfriend knows this saying
Let’s go champ
Thank you for watching and thank you for the encouragement go bacon
My pancakes are more like the French style 🥞 - but still made in the iconic Magrethe mixing bowl 😁
Thank you for watching and thank you for the encouragement. That is one of danish, girlfriends mixing bowls, and she’s quite pleased with them.
Now I'm getting suspicious! Are you sure Danish girlfriend is actually Danish? I mean, Danish girlfriends only eat Danish pancakes and Danish bacon!
Thank you for watching and thank you for your encouragement. You must remember the Danish girlfriend has spent a good deal time in the United States and as I know from being with Danish girlfriend, it’s sometimes hard to find authentic Danish products in the United States instance they are not true Danish hotdogs, except that there is a butcher who lives in Missouri, who has contracted with local Pig farmers, to feed the pigs where the pigs in Denmark are fat. Then he makes a delicious danish hotdog, but even that’s not enough, because some of the condiments are hard to source as well. Remilard is nearly impossible to get in the United States and we bring it home when we go to Denmark along with pickled cucumbers, and of course, other things that we eat from time to time. So instead of calling Danish girlfriend out, should feel sorry for danish girlfriend she misses the food from her home country, and when we go back to make sure that we have true authentic danish treats.
Va duktig du är på att prata ett helt annat språk. Inte ens jag förstår danska
Thank you very much. I had to ask Danish girlfriend what your comment meant and she said it’s in Swedish and that you recognize it. Learning danish is a challenging exercise and it is.
@@sambyrod8179 I can give u a hint how to speek perfect Danish. Just put a hot potato in your mouth while talking only in vowels.😆
Danish or whatever, the lady is right! Forget your granddaddy's look FOREVER! You look SO much better !
Thank you for watching and thank you for the encouragement. Yes, you and Danish girlfriend are right. A little taking care of myself is a good thing, and it makes me more presentable to the world and myself.
