  5. Whenever you display one of the wonderful cups of goodness, I immediately begin to thirst for one. Splendid entry, always. Sorry, I have been missing in action, doing so much to clean up where those 6 huge trees came down Happy week Merisi~

    1. Oh, Carol, that's great! You mean Billy Collins, don't you?
      He and Emily Dickinson, my favorite American poets, I suppose.
      You know the one about "Taking off Emily Dickinson's clothes"?

  14. Merisi, you are a true artist -- you have made a simple glass of water into a work of art! Is all coffee in Vienna so beautiful? Don't answer that - I want to believe that it is!
