"15 Süße Minuten " (15 sweet minutes)







Yeah, 15 Süße Minuten...it´s a Bistro, Cafe and Bakery in one. I just love this place!!! Located in the 4th District of Vienna, this is one of my fave Cafes in town. They have the best Poppyseed cheesecake that is so scrumptious..... it´s really heaven!




Just a few blocks from my work not so far away from the Belvedere Palace, I love to come here whenever the time allows me and take away some sweets...They also have light snacks and various soups that you could order for lunch or for tea.







You only need to have 15 sweet minutes of your time to be able to taste one of  the best pâttisseries in town.







Once inside, you´ll feel relaxed in the modern and friendly atmosphere






Since I´m always short of time for lunch break ( I only have 30 minutes),  I wouldn´t go out of this Café without bringing some of my favourite poppyseed cheesecake for my afternoon merienda in the office..





And while I sip a cup of Nespresso , I enjoy each and every tidbits of the poppyseeds in this cheesecake while looking at the wonderful and picturesque view of the Belvedere Palace from my office window.









So if you happen to visit Vienna... it´s located at Favoriten Strasse 45, 4th District just a few steps from Vienna´s most modern and biggest Rail Station called Hauptbahnhof Wien...





Hoping you´re enjoying your Sunday!

missing the white sands...




The frost is just around the corner and may come anytime from now.
Those of you who live in countries with tropical/warmer climate are very lucky.

During this time of the year , we now have a gray in gray skies in Vienna with temperatures
ranging from 0 °C to 8°C... 




I never like it when skies are cloudy and gray, it´s so gloomy...I miss the blue skies, the blue seas and white sands of the beaches in my home country, the Philippines.

I have no motivation to do anything when it´s cold. It´s the winter blues, perhaps ? The winter blues, oh my, I´ve been hearing about it!






Despite the weather odds, I´ve been doing a few projects that are still in progress... and because of this same cold weather...I´ve been postponing to finish those.....no motivation, no elan! hhhhhmmm :-((








These days, I dragged myself and finished all the 66 granny squares  for the blanket project.. I ran out of yarn for the frame and lace, so I ordered them already and this time, I wanted strong colors!

I think the bunch of new yarn would pep-up the boring color of the pastels... let´s wait and see.

Meanwhile, I´ll keep you posted on my projects..

Be safe and enjoy your Tuesday!
