Rememberence of Those Goods Days With Friends Over Coffee
Many a good day was spent with friends over coffee and cake. Just like the Golden Girls we had our cheesecake moments too. There were stories of ALL kinds.It all started in Germany, I was born in a little house on the Freudenberg Hills. The war had been over for several years and people were settling in to a time of new growth, and prosperity. As an Army Brat we traveled a lot but, I was never as Happy as I was in that little old house. It was a short bus ride or an adventurous walk to the River Rhine, where we would stroll along the tree lined colonnade amongst the ducks, and swans the smell of spring flowers perfuming the mid day air. We would pause for a late lunch at outdoor cafes and watch as people leisurely sailed their boats down the river. On late afternoons we would enjoy the coffee houses, were we would enjoy coffee and the most sumptuous cakes and pastries. On hot summer days I would enjoy my favorite lemon ice cream. Even today if I think on it I can still taste the tart, sweet flavor.This little bog is to be dedicated to just that. Coffee, Conversation and Sumptuous cake recipes. So I hope you will all join me, and share your stories of days gone by, and recipes old or new, shared by some one today or passed down from generation to generation. Love to you All, Micki
A Time Of Renwal
Spring a time of birth and renewal. These swans are a reminder of what is important in our lives. ~ LOVE~ Love of friends, children, country, family, the season, flowers, of good wine, great coffee, and wonderful sweet indulgences.
Take the time to bring a little love into someones life. Invite them to lunch or out for a sweet and coffee or tea. Put out all your finery and invite them to dine in your wonderful smelling abode or your lush backyard.
Time is short and precious, make the most of it and remember. You may be entertaining Angels Unaware.
Love, Micki
