  13. McVal,
    if it continues to snow in your part of the world, just think it is powdered sugar, falling on the cake in the snow globe! ;-)


    Charles Gramlich,
    "six sugars please"
    Only six? *rofl*
    Are the Saints marching in and having coffee, all of them? ;-)

  16. You have no idea how much I would like to join you!

  17. Yes! What a treat! Hot chocolate for me though, my new favorite now that I can't have coffee, doesn't agree with me anymore, sigh...

    ReplyDelete
  18. I'll go for the Guglhupf...looks scrumptious!

  20. Of course I would! Nibbling on an elephant ear sounds rather exotic too.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Yes please!
    If only I could teleport myself there.
    I don't think I have ever had a slice of Marble
    Gugelhupf or Poppy Seed either ...
    Maybe I will just have to try one of each!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Let's see, some greasy, deep fried dough, covered with powdered sugar, or the Guglehupf? I don't think I have ever had Guglehupf, but I'll take that.

  23. What a wonderful blog! Happy to find it! Greetings from Vienna ;-)

  24. Alan,
    oh no!!!!! Gugelhupf is baked in a Gugelhupf mold and is not greasy. ;-)

    Thank you all for your kind comments,
    I appreciate them all!

  27. Merisi,

    What a nice surprise that you stopped by my blog, and how happy I am to have followed you back here! I lived in Germany many years ago, and traveled a bit while I was there, but never made it to Vienna. Still, through your words and images I can smell the coffee, and feel the pleasure of that warm cup. Thank you for finding me!

    xox,
    Susan
