Haha, won't those people be surprised when I show back up on their doorsteps to call in that favor they owe me!

I guess swinging by Nuremberg to drop off a few would be out of the question :-/

Oh well, I'll have to make a few myself.

But first: tomorrow its off to Vienna where I will be well fed as well:
Wiener Schnitzel
Sacher Torte
Apfel Strudel

Yummmm!!!

I will take the tortes and strudels! Not so much the schnitzels.

Having just googled "sachertorte", will definitely take one of those.

I am sure as hell not buying a cake from a website! I bet I could make that thing myself just fine.

TWO CUPS OF MELTED BUTTER

Holy crapoley that is amazing. I'm tempted to try this, but don't think I know seven different people in Canberra well enough to spring Surprise Pastry on them. Maybe if the rolls were filled with vegemite??

Yeah, in addition to the cup of oil already in the dough! Good god.

Plus, there's a range given for the melted butter - I stayed on the low end, but apparently some people could conceivably manage to cram three cups of melted butter in there. I have no idea how, since I had a frantic realization while wrangling the dough into an ungraceful, messy roll that the melted butter was seeping out into a congealing pool on the table, the chairs, the floor, my feet.

Also, Surprise Pastry! This is how you make friends! I am pretty sure there were at least a couple of people I mildly frightened with these, anyway.

Yeah, cinnamon rolls are just ... wow. Wow wow wow.

I love the baked goods delivery thing. I used to take mine to a local night club when I wanted to bake but not eat the results. (Or, er, prevent myself from eating all of the results.)

A nightclub! Brilliant! I am working on a comic about how to make friends with strangers at concerts, but that's probably about as surefire method as you can get.

I very much like the idea of you roaming the rainy streets with a car fulla delicious. Carry on.

Haha, I almost called you guys, having recently come into possession of your new address and all! But then I thought that would be weird. Also, Redmond.
