Churros and Berlines
Is what I had last night with my gf. We got 10 of these plus many others from this Chilean Cake Shop and watched "Motorcycle Diaries" (A film about travels of Che Guevara through the South America in 1952) while eating them.
I am starting to pick up some words in Spanish here and there. I think I'm turning into a Latino

Churros and Berlines
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil

Berlines, even though it originated in Germany is one of the most popular cakes in Chile. It started in the german restaurants and shortly became widespread in Sandiago. Now you can find them in every Chilean Cake shop In and out of Chile

They do like "Churros" and we had many others. They like to put cooked condensed milks into many cakes they make. But out of all of them the two I posted were the main attraction

Yeh, the actor was good, the funny bit was the Mambo-Tango Originally Posted by Late_vamp

John F. Kennedy: "Ich bin ein Berliner" ("I am a 'Berliner'")

President Kennedy calls himself (in German), a Jelly Donut!
Of course, the German croud knew what he was trying to say, and applauded him.
