It's cold, cold, cold outside, and inside. I am dreaming of some warm, cinnamon-y sahlep.M. brought some back from his most recent trip to Istanbul, but he says it isn't that great.
I think it is fabulous.

Check out the old photo of a sahlep seller in Istanbul, above - and a new photo of a sahlep seller in Istanbul, also above...an enduring winter tradition...............
Interesting post. The link too!
