un caffè macchiato per favore

So, huge news - I'm starting to like coffee! If you know me and my drinking habits well, you'll know that there are about 3 things I drink on a regular basis: water (often flavored with those little crystal light packet things), juice, and alcohol. I don't often drink soda and up until now I never drank coffee. I like to think of myself as a bit of a beer aficionado but have always been disappointed to have to say I didn't like Guinness because of the little bit of coffee flavor it has.

But now it's all changing! I've recently started drinking cappuccinos and my new favorite - the caffè macchiato. Caffè macchiato is a shot of espresso with a small bit of cream on top, kind of like a miniature, more concentrated cappuccino. It's delicious. And the one I had after lunch during the bike tour my mom, sister, and I went on in Tuscany even had the foam in the shape of a heart. Awww, right?! Maybe one of our tour guides was trying to tell me something? ;)
