Some Like it Hot Pink Saturday

I'm still on the coffee theme, but this post shares a few pictures, a few thoughts and asks a question. Some folks like their coffee hot. Do you?

 

 

I'm generally an iced coffee fan, but after dinner out or for a treat I like cappuccino, which is espresso, hot milk and steamed milk foam. The name for this drink comes from the Capuchin friars, and it refers to the color of their habits. When the milk is added to the dark espresso the coffee resembles the habits. Last night I was out for dinner and the desserts were a great temptation. I'm happy to say I resisted, but I finished the evening with this cup of cappuccino.

I had this treat in Cuzco, Peru, somewhat accidentally. I ordered iced coffee and after several enjoyable sips I realized I'd gotten Irish coffee, which is whiskey, hot coffee, sugar and whipped cream. Yes, I could have sent it back, but what a treat! 

Sometimes, a cup of coffee is just a cup of coffee. Nothing fancy here, and I'm not even sure where I took this picture. But I caught a quiet moment in a café.

 

Though I'm still coffee themed "H," I'm also linking up to Pink Saturday. I'm late for "H" and I'm just under the wire for Pink Saturday. I've been blogging about three times a week before starting the Challenge daily blogging and especially picture taking and editing has been more work than I'm used to. I know I did a lot more writing and sitting in front of the computer when I was working, but I remember being exhausted by Friday every week. I'm not exhausted, but I've got to keep up the pace to get all my blogging done. One of the things I need to pay attention to is

Coffee Light and Mysteries (Mostly) Noir, which is overdue for an update.

So much coffee and so many mysteries and so little time! As ever, thanks for visiting and take good care.
