Vienna in Spring
Morning with Maxie

"I do not know which to prefer,
The beauty of inflections
Or the beauty of innuendoes,
The blackbird whistling
Or just after." *















Some mornings
even the coffee cup
refuses to sit up straight.

    Dear friends,
    I am trying to put a FB link that works, but somehow I seem unable to do so.
    Would you be so kind as to try to click on the link-picture on the upper right hand column and let me know if it works for you?
    Thank you in advance,
    Merisi

    On other news:
    Spammer love to have coffee in Florence these days (I noticed because that old post was all of a sudden appearing in the "Favorite Posts" line-up. I took the post back into draft for a couple of days, but as soon as I put it back up this morning, the Spammers were back, drinking coffee in Florence. The heuristics behind it ..... ;-)

    LOVELY!

    I tried your facebook link, but it is not working for me. I don´t think we are friends on FB, are we? What is your name there?

    Thank you for your recent comment.
    I had no problems getting into your FB link.
    The best way I have found of almost eliminating Spam is by changing the Settings on Posts and Comments to 'Registered User' rather than 'anyone'.

    They are all great shots and, for me, seeing those cubes of sugar wrapped like that really does take me back to my youth. I haven't seen that for years :).
