Biscotti is like a gourmet biscuit. Can be pretty "high end" in western Europe and goes well with a few shots of espresso.The ferret_imp said:

Not that it matters, but those are chocolate chips, not raisins. More authentic, I’d say, are biscotti with almonds which would be delicious with tea.

Biscotti are classically Italian. They have many fancy varieties as North America has donuts, but are less harmful. I reckon the English would have tea when they choose to indulge in some biscotti (I have rarely seen).EmptySea_imp said:
So, what exactly is it you have rarely seen, GO? Biscotti? Tea? The English? The English having tea? Tea and biscotti? The English drinking tea and nibbling biscotti?

They are Italian in origin. There are indeed many varieties, although the almond ones appear to be the closest to “original”. I’ve had almond cookies with tea and a classic biscotti is, at its core, an almond cookie.
I would not rely on the Brits for their expertise on pairing food and drink.

Aye, food and Brits.EmptySea_imp said:
Some hard-core Italians don't like people messin' with their original almond formula biscotti. Ah well, no different than someone mixing a straight bourbon.
One great thing 'bout biscotti is it is also a durable biscuit, has some protein, and packs well in a CB1100 tank bag. I am unsure 'bout other motorcycle tank bags.

I do enjoy a cup of hot tea with toast or cookies or doughuts. I suppose a cup of tea with an almond biscotti would be enjoyable as well.

They travel pretty well. Oh and they’re generally crispy, which is probably why people dunk them in their coffee.The ferret_imp said:

Plenty of household chores competed with the sunny, but crisp 53° Saturday. I managed to squeeze in 53 miles yesterday afternoon that took me along Lake Michigan and to a taqueria that I hope to visit again and again.

Had time to enjoy a cigar and the view from a bluff overlooking Glencoe Beach, Glencoe, IL
Figured you might prefer to see more of the view and less of the cigar.

... maybe, but there is a shadow covering the boot MTC. Otherwise, the deal of the day looked good.
Fun fotos, MTC...the food/bike one particularly captures the pleasant "chores can wait" outing.

After playing 2 sets of country (&western) music with the Johnny Cash cover band "The Linewalkers" I rode easy on this sunny afternoon humming the lyrics and melody of the beautiful song "Baby ride easy" high in the saddle all day. Not a day, but an afternoon long.

On autumn days like this sometimes I wonder what a half and quarter CB1100 lump would feel like between the knee caps.
