To the sweetest readers on the web, I’m taking my fist extended period off from blogging as I join family to cruise around Europe on a special vacation. I will return mid- June though, so mark your calendars and don’t forget about your DD!
In the meantime, I hope to have great Flan in Spain!
Great Custard Tarts in Portugal,
Great Macarons in France,
Great Almond Briouats in Morocco,
and Great Black Forrest Cake in Germany!
I shall dutifully report back when I return. Be sure to sign up for my mailing list here so you don’t forget about your dear, dear DD! 😉
I’ll miss you guys!!!!

pps: for any creepy people in cyberspace, we have a house-sitter with a barky dog, so you can forget about robbing an “empty house” 😛

You’re going to portugal! I’m originally from there and im going in mid-june. Im not a big fan of the custard tarts BUT i highly recommend a bakery in lisbon called “pasteis de belem” (www.pasteisdebelem.pt). They make the best custard tarts! Enjoy!
Have fun! I’m so jealous, I miss Germany like the dickens!
