Impressions of Belgrade and Serbia and maybe photos from an in-country trip by a long-term ex-pat.

A rose by any other name....
These little doughnuts without a hole are simply called 'mini-krofne' (mini doughnuts) here, but their counterparts in France are called 'pets de nonne' or nun's puffs, a euphemism for 'nun's farts'.
They're so light and airy. ;)
Thanks for the chuckle. (I'm playing catch-up and thinking it may soon have to be a choice between my job and my blog pals—and the scale's tipping in your favor!)

Nun's farts! Now that's funny. I used to like these things, now I'm not too sure! :)
They look delicious!
Love the names. In the USA, they'd be called donut holes.
And in Canada they'd be timbits.
Miam miam!

Does that mean nun's farts are light and airy?
