280 Days

The nightmare. When you get pregnant in spite of using the birth control pill all your life, it will take 280 days to the moment 'beschuit met muisjes' will be served. Beschuit met muisjes, biscuit with little mice (sugared aniseed in pink and white), is the traditional food served in the Netherlands to celebrate the birth of a baby.
