Kidding! Glad you had a good vacation, glad you're back. And when you do figure out the salad recipes, I'll be waiting. Smitten Kitchen went to Europe and all we got was this lousy salad.

I had two weeks a few years ago and there was still so much left that I didn't have time to see! Like you, I need a lot more time in Vienna!

A coworker of mine made the infamous recipe and I was dubious, but it was pretty good when she made it. I made it again recently and honestly, I wasn't that impressed. Give me real oreos or a real cake anytime. P.S. It scares me that this bakery is promoting a recipe that is an American staple - Sex and the City changes things again, I guess, after promoting their cupcakes as well.

I also follow your advice on photo equipment, so for the last month I am a proud owner of the Digital Rebel and the 50mm prime lense. No, my pictures are still nowhere near yours! What a surprise to find out that you went to Prague! I come from Prague, and in fact I am returning back to Prague next week, after living in England for more than 6 years. What a pity - I missed you by about 2 weeks. I would have loved to meet you and hopefully be of some service. I would have loved to repay at least a little bit the joy and inspiration that your blog is for me. When you come next time, please do get in touch, or at least give some warning in advance! Many thanks for all the kind words that you had for my country Warm regards Jan PS: Do you know, my grandmother used to have a clothing shop in that narrow street on your first picture? Until the revolution in 1989, that street was filled with shops that sold clearance clothing and fabrics. I remember it being a really spooky place, an only such place in Prague. It was really a bit of a different world, a different century - think Harry Potter and the Diagonal Alley. I had my first ever jacket from their shop, I still remember it with great fondness.

Travel plans are long-overdue! I'm jealous of you and all your readers who's been to vienna recently. Given how crowded it was this time of year, maybe i will just accept my hubby's suggestion that central and eastern Europe is great in November and December! (My thin southern blood tells me otherwise.) Thanks for the gorgeous photos! mindy Oh, my. Travel plans are long-overdue! I’m jealous of you and all your readers who’s been to vienna recently.

Just curious... guess I'll find out...

Whoops! Anyway, I finally managed to control myself long enough to <a href="http://www.toomuchgarlic.com/coconut-bourbon-banana-bread/" rel="nofollow">actually get a loaf made</a>, and man, is this recipe ever a keeper. I added some shredded coconut, which gave it great texture, and I plan on experimenting with chocolate chips if I can ever get three ripe bananas all together in one place again. Thank you!
