Rainy Day Escape

I needed to get out of the house,

so we stopped by one of my absolute favorite cozy spots:

Café der Provinz

"Is there anything special 

about these salt and pepper shakers?"

my boyfriend asked.

Everything is special 

once you take a picture of it.

My wish:

To spend an afternoon here

dedicated only to taking pictures.

Confession:

Too shy to ask.

Yesterday in Vienna

Banana Bread Study Break

The weather has been cold, wet and grey all week;

my roommate and I have been stuck inside studying/writing/working

for what seems like an eternity.

We desperately needed something warm, sweet and homemade.

So I made some banana bread for our coffee break,

using a recipe I found on this lovely blog.
