The Theatine Church of St. Cajetan

The Theatine Church of St. Cajetan in Munich is one of those places that looks very unassuming from the outside and makes your jaw drop when you walk inside.  If you want to see boundless opulence on a small scale in white marble done in Italian high-Baroque – this place is a good start.  When a king, gets a long awaited son and the heir to the Bavarian crown, this is what he donates to the church as a thank you gift.  I guess its good to be the king.

    It is amazing – but not as amazing as your tomatoes in the paper. How did you get from your greenhouse to a full spread in the Journal. BTW we are missing those tomatoes here.

    Weird, right? Last weekend reading the paper and saw they were asking for garden harvest pictures, was going to send one of the loaded greenhouse, but I loved the heart pic (when I first showed the pic to Lanny, he was like meh….) so I posted it then and just came across it on Sat. Weirdest part, I am getting texts from phone numbers I don’t recognize, saying things like “nice tomatoes”. yup I need an iPhone!

    That is a great story and one day I want to see a proper picture of this, not just the Journal pic. That picture Anna showed me looked amazing and I wish we were there to invite ourselves over for the tomato feast. Those are so so good.
