Everyday affairs

[winter]

First of all, a very happy birthday to pinkdormouse :)

Thursday morning, I'm off to Berlin for four days - back on Sunday evening. Shopping, sightseeing, and possibly a dancing vampire or two ;) The weather forecast isn't looking too good, but since the heatwave has been pushed back in forecasts over the last few days, I'm hoping the bleak skies and rain will hold until I get back.

And with my new milk frother, I've completed the set of appliances that lets me prepare a Wiener Melange coffee - or a latte if the fancy strikes me - in the privacy of my own house. This will save me a fortune in coffeehouse bills.

One question I've always wanted to ask: is "melange" pronounced the French way ("me-LANSH") or the German way ("me-LAN-ge")?

/Hopes to visit Vienna in autumn and not look like a fool

Y'know, at some point we have to do a girls trip ;) Amsterdam is looking the best bet for that, ni? :D And then we can bitch about the weather and everything and it'll be fun :D

Automatically, I want to say the French way, but I can ask alighiera if you want :) Or you can order "the normal thing" and still be served, because that's what you drink, apparently. Even in Starbucks and Nescafe bars.
