NEW ESPRESSO

I was dying to have a good Portuguese coffee...As everybody know, I love to drink coffee...specially very strong ristretos with no sugar or espressos, but Aidan has no cups here in his holiday house.
I was craving coffee so much that I went to my favorite shop: A Loja do gato Preto and I bought these delicate cute little things for me to have coffee every time we come back to Portugal... 

   
Aidan loves them too...
Every morning around 10 we have our coffee by the pool...
