Thank you.<BR/>Should any of you ever venture on the Italian Autostrada, I can recommand their Auto Griles too. Last May my daughter and I travelled from the Austrian border all the way to Rome, and we couldn't stop marvelling about their great coffee and snacks, presented in a pleasant atmosphere. And they offer great souvenirs, too. What a revolutionary concept, quality and great prices at highway stops! The Austrian versions are not too bad either.Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-84743611954404059522007-06-20T06:45:00.000-04:002007-06-20T06:45:00.000-04:00Lovely everything you post.Everything looks delici...Lovely everything you post.<BR/>Everything looks delicious!Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16734743330025974332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-86150151299494271522007-06-20T05:39:00.000-04:002007-06-20T05:39:00.000-04:00SO MANY GREAT SNACK SUGGESTIONS!

Our culture here in the U.S. really works against us for remaining healthy and developing a palate for very good food, while not breaking the bank. Of course, I came home depressed for more reasons than just that ... !<BR/><BR/>I was in the southern French Alps last November (to visit my friend who is lucky enough to live there) and discovered VIOLET yogurt at Monoprix. What a marvelous, beautiful, delicate thing! I brought home the face of the cardboard container -- it is by Mamie Nova, which makes other wonderful, unusual flavors, too. <BR/><BR/>*le sigh*<BR/><BR/>Thank you for your daily breakfast treat, Carol.
