Happy New Year, my dears! I wish I could have done an end of the year post, but internet service and life get's in the way. As there hasn't been a Cortado in almost two months, and I even miss the one planned, we have some extra links and loves. I think there may be a little bit for everyone here to enjoy. Or, maybe just me?
Enjoy this Cortadito, set a little different for my wide (but pretty predictable if you know me, and I think you all do) selection of interests and reads!
