Hearts To You

                                                               Hearts found in Prague,




From Paris with love




and one I found on Martha's Vineyard
                                                                     
                                                            Happy Valentines Day

Friday, February 3

Hot chocolate,coffee & beer, and a little something to go with it.

Between meals we found plenty to keep us satisfied



                                       no hot chocolate anywhere else will ever beat this one....
                                             thick thick velvety smooth...I will never forget it.


                                     Frank fell right into the role of sampling the local beer.


                                      rich vanilla pastry cream, rum whipped cream with a butterscotch glaze - yum!


I really needed coffee, not water to accompany this delicious puff.
this one wasn't between meals - just in case you were wondering

                                                                     
                                                                   but these two were :-)


                                                                    with lots to tempt us too
                                                     check out that white, pointy thing...I like it!



                                                                  Interesting street food






                                                                 

                                                               happy me...there were macarons too.


                                                            even cheese in macaron colours


                                                                        pretty sandwiches
 
                                                          amazing smells from a little bakery

                                             
                                             but not all of them were pretty or at all tempting!


Air France provides your first coffee in Paris. 


                                           from there you hit the streets and you find one of these,


and place your order


                                                       the above two steps are done over
                                                                       
                                                                              and over
                                         Your search continues for that "Prague"  hot chocolate.......
                                           it was not to be, but I did find the ultimate mallowpuff
                                                           (cookie + marshmallow + chocolate)


Now to replicate that hot chocolate at home, you know I have to at least try.....
I have the chocolate, 
all I need is the cream and a bit of skill  luck.


If you want one, you need to visit me...bring macarons please.

Streets Lined With Pavers






When you do a lot of walking, looking up isn't always what you need to do, 
 you can't help but look down too.















                                                  In Prague the man holes are worth spotting too.














                                            Other than these two attention grabbers I found,





                                             I'm sorry Paris, your footpaths just don't compare.
