"Reward Yourself With Austrian Poppy Seed Cake." #CatchyHeadline . . „Heidi Riegler, the founder and a baker of @viennacookiecompany in Baldwin, NY, has just added this specialty to her inventory. It’s a classic poppy seed cake, or mohntorte, a confection that was her favorite when she was growing up in Vienna. The cake is deliciously dense with poppy seeds and comes blanketed with marzipan“, reports food critic Florence Fabricant in the @nytimes. . . #Mohntorte #TasteOfAustria . . 📸 (c) Tony Cenicola/The New York Times
According to @davidnettosays in @townandcountrymag, the 📸 on the right might have been "the world's first paparazzi photo. The date is perhaps 1879, or 1881, the subject the elusive Empress Elisabeth of Austria, pursued while foxhunting and caught, creating the archetype for all paparazzi targets to come: the tormented beauty. In her long and reluctant reign, Elisabeth, known as #Sisi, became, like Princess Diana or Robert Mueller, the object of collective obsession the more she sought to avoid it". #meanwhile . . . 📷 Wikimedia & Austrian National Library
#Andritz to renew #Kentucky mill (📷) for North American Stainless! .

White wine, soda water, maybe some ice and a slice of lemon ...🍹💦 . . You could almost call it #Austria’s national drink: the #Spritzer. A light and bubbly #drink, perfect for every warm weather occasion, goes with nearly any dish. In fact, the word #spritz comes from the German word for "spray." In Germany the same drink is called #Schorle. We definitely prefer "Spritzer" though. ;) . Fancy a different variation? Try "#AperolSpritz" – a mixture of white wine, soda and the Italian aperitif Aperol. Or simply add elderflower syrup, mint leaves and lime to your Spritzer to create a #Hugo! . Cheers to the Spritzer (and the weekend)! . .📸 @stoeckler.sarah . . #tasteofaustria #wordoftheday #tgif #foodfriday

In 1999, @silhouetteeyewear revolutionized the industry by developing the world’s first hingeless and screwless "titan minimal art" frames. The featherlight glasses are now used by all @nasa astronauts on their space missions. During a spacewalk, the tiniest loose screw could cause a spacesuit failure and would jeopardize the astronaut's life. 😎🚀 . . Operating in the U.S. already since 1982, Silhouette employs today over 90 people in its branch in upstate New York. In 2015, the family-owned company opened a gallery in the heart of NYC's Fashion District to showcase their innovative designs. . . 📷 1: NASA astronaut wearing Silhouette sunglasses. © NASA 📷 2: At the headquarters in Linz, Austria. © Silhouette, designboom 📷 3: Titanium embossing profiles during the production process. © Silhouette, designboom
