Oh yes, it is. The picture of the large structure was actually one man's house, built back in 1624. There is a pub in the former wine cellar and that is where the King Christian IV Guild has the induction ceremonies. I am a lifetime member of the Guild, having been inducted three years ago, and have my own key to the former secret back entrance to the place. The second picture is of my favorite Danish pastry called vienerbrød, which simply means Vienna bread.

I wouldn't call it crispy, but firm. The layers seem to be as thin as wax paper. It's not extremely buttery and they add chocolate, plain sugar frosting, and the yellow stuff is... hmm, what exactly is it? I never can quite tell, but it's good! Other Danish pastries have strawberry, raspberry, peach, and apple as the most common fruits. Marzipan is also common.

Florida's Natural brand is tops. It is not bitter like some canned grapefruit juice is or generic brands. They let the fruit ripen before making the juice.

I've gone through a couple of extended periods of appetite loss in my life when the mere thought of my favorite foods (e.g. bacon) made me nauseous. The first time, the only thing I could think of that sounded good was Taco Bell even though I've never really been much of a Taco Bell fan. The second time, it was Filet-o-Fish from McDonalds. It's kind of weird when that kind of thing is going on.
