  2. What a marvelous doorway! I want to stand inside there and watch the shadows slide away with the sun.

  3. Vreni,
    I walked in yesterday and got a cupcake for my daughter, but had no time to linger. They now have savory ones too!

    Sara,
    I love moments like that, a glimpse of an interior world usually closed off from the outside.

  4. Oh I never heard them called Willow Catkins before, I like that and I would enjoy a bouquet, in fact, I would enjoy a whole tree, and I should take a cupcake as well;)

  7. The detail on the window (turquoise and gold decorations) is stunning.
    The little, "chinese food take out", box for a single cupcake - again stunning attention to detail.
    I don't think the devil is in the details. I think beauty and happiness is in the details :-).

  9. Mary Howell Cromer,
    may be a result of my mongrel language history. At times I translate something from another language without being really aware of, until it is too late. Weidenkätzchen, willow pussy cats, may have played a role in that one. ;-)

    Thank you, Mary! :-)

    Zosia,
    beauty IS in the details, I could not agree more! :-)

    Eugenia,
    thank you, made me happy to capture it! ;-)

    Carol, for some time now! :-)

    1. Michelle,
      about three years ago. This was the first cupcake store in Vienna. There are more now. ;-)

  12. Blogger seems to be completely out of order!
    I had to jump through all sorts of loops and hoops to publish a new post today, therefore this republished one.

    Is Blogger acting up also in your part of the world?

  13. Willow Catkins, what a delightful name, had never heard them called that before. These are so sweet, each one~

    1. Mary,
      do you know them as pussy willow?

  14. Lovely to have the light back, isn't it? We, on the other hand, have had light snow for two days...

    Blogger has been okay for me.

    1. I had been cooped up in the house, for over a week, and took a walk near the Danube today. I think I caught a bit too much sun. ;-)
