Fiesta!

We have been having a party almost every night. Saturday night it was the arrival of our friend from Madrid, Sunday it was Zahara and summer friends, and last night it was some colleagues from the summer program here in Cadiz. You don’t need a reason to have a party in Spain and Tin said he would like to have five parties this week, and we are well on our way.

We made mussels in the Andalusian style – chopped tomatoes, onions and sweet peppers on top of steamed mussels. queso payoyo (an artisanal cheese in Cadiz), manchego (Spain’s best cheese), chorizo, ham, tomato salad, pan integral (bread from the local bakery), and of course a tray of bon bons complete with torcino del ciel (heaven’s bacon which is actually a flan that is deliciously eggy custard).

  1. Tin looks like he’s in pain — forbidden pastries?

    (he somehow has a very “adult” face in this pic… could be the camera caught a glimpse of his older soul)
