[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm French and it's a cultural thing in France, to have a little cup of "express" at a cafe table whenever you want, if you're tired or you just want to sit and chat with friends. The hydration comes from water, or wine, or other drinks. The little cup is a shot. A pick-me-up. Often it comes with a little chocolate.

Personally, I have a very cute collection of espresso cups, with different designs, and half the pleasure is using one of them, depending on my mood in the moment ;-)

I find it a very amusing Americanism that you can't enjoy something you find tasty just because the volume is too small :-) Talk about needing to supersize!

The most intense pleasures sometimes come in the smallest of packages, or the briefest of moments, OP. I hope you remember that in your life. If you think back to the moments that brought you the most joy, did they actually last all that long? I think it was the emotional connection and intensity of feeling that probably made them memorable.
