My Dad loved to go out for coffee. When I was a little girl he sometimes took me with him. Dad liked
Vienna coffee, with a cloud of whipped cream peeking over the edge of the cup. I had chocolate milkshakes. I loved the way they served them in the metal cups from the milkshake machine. They tasted better that way, I swear they did! We had brandy snaps filled with whipped cream too. When I was grown up, I taught myself how to make brandy snaps. They'll always be special to me, spicy, warm reminders of time relaxing with my Dad.
