Coffee in the Morning...

Hi guys.. So this is what some of my mornings look like (when we're not leaving town). Here's my little view when I am sitting outside drinking coffee reading, thinking, praying... Also here is the 'shakeratto' Claudia made for me... remember the description in the other post? It was delicious. Also, you know how I stated that most Italians sit to drink their coffee as they have it throughout the day...? I was wrong, they do have it several times throughout the day but many just stop by, stand by the coffee bar and just get their fix from their mini-cup and go on their way. I noticed this the last couple of days as I was walking around. =) The last picture is of a cappuccino, that's why it is a little bit bigger, and so is the shakerato... otherwise, coffee: tiny, tiny, tiny... and strong, strong, strong. I'm discovering that I like the in-between of the coffee I have at home & this one. I've been making the espresso & adding a tad of hot water & sugar - makes about half a cup... perfect.
