The previous Saturday I bought some permanent markers for another project, and I didn't endure to the temptation to draw one of my white mugs and try this very known project of "DIY sharpie mugs".

"For I have known them all already, known them all-

Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,

I have measured out my life with coffee spoons."

T.S. Eliot, The Love Song of J.Alfred Prufrock and Others

I love cappuccino, as I love all kinds of coffees! But, the most I like in cappuccino is that you can drink your coffee in so many different and creative ways. And, you don't have to be an expert barrista to have a heart of steamed milk to your coffee cup - although barrista's foam heart may be undeniably perfect! All you need is your espresso machine (or moka top), a shot of espresso, steamed milk, cinnamon powder and a toothpick. You pour foam milk in the center of your coffee and then with the toothpick you stretch the edges to the desirable shape: hearts, leaves, butterflies, web, etc.

Every time I make cookies I wonder why I don't make more often. It's so fast and easy. This is a variation of the traditional recipe of cookies, but using butter, instead sunflower oil, and combining whole wheat flour with all purposes. And you have soft, fluffy, delicious orange cookies.
