Doorhandles and doughy tubes

Here are a couple of random things about Romania that I'd like to share with you.

1. Doughy Tubes. These are not strictly Romanian (actually they're Hungarian, make sure you don't get that wrong!). They also have a proper name but doughy tube will do for you and me. They are something like doughnut dough, but in a tube, spit roasted over charcoal then coated in your choice of yummy stuff such as chocolate, cocoa, cinnamon etc. Yummy! Eating a whole one by yourself can make you feel a bit ill.



2. Doorhandles. Romanians like to take their doorhandle off then take it away with them when they leave the house. I guess it helps with security but it can lead to all sorts of problems!

Won´t the robbers just bring their own door handle? Better to take the whole door off and hide it somewhere in the garden..
