  4. Thank you! :-)
    I wished I could take you all out for coffee and some of those fantastic Carnevale dolci, le frittelle (a sort of fried bigne', made with yeastdough, either plain with raisings, or filled with ricotta cream or zabbaione cream).
    Yes, Allie, I am in heaven: when I hit Italian soil, I feel at home and walk on air. ;-)

    I posted some photos of Munich "Faschingskrapfen" tonight - and I linked to your beautiful apricot Viennese ones:) So delicious. Today's the last day. Sigh.

  12. Darn!

    I'm having coffee right now. Instant coffee, that is.

    And then I saw your site via the Blogs of Note feature of Blogger and saw all these wonderful coffee pictures.

    I bet they taste and smell great, too.

    *sigh* Now I'll just imagine my instant coffee is like one of these wonderful coffees pictured here...
