  5. Tess Kincaid,
    I agree, in both cases! :-)

    Cathy,
    alrighty! ;-)

    Vicki Lane,

    Danuca,
    I am sorry. I do get a bit shy about my older posts. More than five years of daily publishing means there are not only gems out there and there are people who feel it necessary to point this out to me.

    Svet,

  7. So, you mean you will live the past in the obscure?! You know, I want to impress someone living in Vienna for a lifetime, invite them to cakes, tarts, coffee, the Viennese coffeehouse :-)) when i visited Vienna some years ago I had no idea that you can, for the small price of a cup of coffee, upon payment of this mite every guest can sit for hours on end, discuss, write, play cards, receive his mail, and, above all, can go through an unlimited number of newspapers and magazines.
    Always in hurry, this time I'll take my time and so will he, ;-)
    I am still in hope to rediscover your older posts, seriously.

  8. I'll take Cathy's coffee and she can have my macaron. That coffee looks dessert enough for me.

  10. Since I cannot eat the macaron on my new diet, I will shellac it and wear it as a hat instead. Oh-la-la!

  11. Giant macaron, eh? That's definitely not the fat-free kind, I'm thinking. Hahaaaa. Looks beautiful.

  12. Falling upside down and backwards over your macaron...

  13. Cool! Tomorrow I will read as much as I can with a big cup of coffee and I will tell you what I liked best!
    Grazie Merisi!

  17. That macaron reminds me of some of the hats that were worn to the recent British royal wedding. Wouldn't that be a great idea--edible hats? Then one wouldn't run such a risk when declaring, "If that's true, I'll eat my hat!"

  18. Thank you all! :-)

    Louciao:
    Great idea, but I'd not consider it in the warmer seasons. ;-)
