Lünebest

I never liked yogurt. It's gross. But I like the Lünebest vanilla and fruit combos. It's probably better for me than cake.

The little starry-sky banner on the front of these informs you (in German) that they are only available for a limited time. So if I end up really liking them, then that's just too bad.

Antipasti

I missed a day yesterday. After work, I got a great massage that really helped my neck and shoulders feel better. Then I met my husband for dinner at the combined club on base. I was just so content and relaxed, I did not feel like blogging. That's my excuse!

So I will post two pics for today, both food themed:

Latte Macchiato

I figure it is necessary to, at some point, post a picture of a coffee from an Italian cafe. I just have to.

Safety tip for Americans who don't know anything about coffee (like me): Do not ever order an "iced" latte macchiato.

Yes, this is a menu item at Starbucks. No, it does not exist in real life.

Apparently, as one barrista explained to me, it is not possible to ice an authentic macchiato. She went in to some of the coffee physics at the time, but the bottom line is, you can't do it.

Gufo

Our friends gave us this bottle of wine with an owl on it, dressed up all fancy. They know we like owls. The Italian word for owl is "gufo" like goof-oh. That part always cracks me up.

The plural of course is "gufi" like goof-y :)

Crepes

...with crepes, featuring dark and white chocolate sauce, for dessert!

Ravioli

Ravioli with Montasio cheese for dinner!
