I can't believe I'm blogging...

...Thus begins the inside life of yet another person - friend, sister, daughter, muso (I love that word), lover of God, lover of life, runner, worshipper - who sits randomly around the world in Jerusalem, Israel and has joined the ranks of those who also sit somewhere and think and ponder and then write...How exciting.

The Perfect Cappucino

Soo the other exciting part about the apt is the cappucino maker...Israel is full of coffeeshops with awesome capp's and we love them. It's a large part of the culture here (among other things, hummus, zatar, etc.) and after having large amounts them in the 3 years that I've been here, I'm very happy to make it part of daily life.

The challenge of course is, making them yourself, should you have a machine. I tried once a while ago when I first got here, it was a slight disaster - and it just wasn't quite the same as Aroma. But while I was away in Germany, Nicole who was also catsitting, would come by for one or two or three...So since then I've learned to make them...better...

AND one day (just a few days ago) I really did almost make the perfect cappucino, almost... We only know one person who we've selfishly required be on his life-long-goal list..and he makes them pretty dang good. Franklin bought his capp maker in ITALY though :) which of course immediately pushes the quality up to beyond amazing, but Franklin is famous for being a 'perfect capp maker...'

Mine came close. And now I have to leave the apt - with the cats and the Mr. Coffee behind. It's almost tragic and JUST when I was getting into it...
