Yes, indeed. My dad was taken into hospital in the evening of 31 Dec 1999… so we spent the turn of the millennium at his bedside, where the nurses brought us cheap fizzy wine in plastic cups at midnight…. He survived that stay, but eventually succumbed much like yours a few months later. They say, no matter how old you are, you never really grow up until your parents are gone, and there’s a certain truth to that.
Good luck, and may next year be better.

Condolences. Lost my dad in 1987 to renal cancer. Hardest part was I missed him passing by minutes... sigh. Now that I'm a grandad and most of my children are 18+, I have so many questions for him. He's so much smarter now...

Oliebollen (oil dumplings) with sugar

Sounds delicious!

Yes, this year they were delicious, especially considerating that we didn't prepare them traditionally in oil, but in the air-fryer instead. A lot healthier too !

Air fryer, interesting.
would also be curious to know how they hold up after a few days?
(assuming you also followed the part of the tradition of making way too many... so after a week or so there's no way you feel like eating them again till maybe about a year later.)

We just heat them up a few minutes in the air fryer again, the outside tastes a bit dry compared to traditional oliebollen, but if you want you can put a some oil on them.
