Ana y Carmen’s Tortilla Española
January 11, 2012 at 9:00 am | Posted in Lunch, Travels | 9 CommentsToday I decided to change up the Wordless Wednesday theme and publish a guest post from Ana Ibañez Garcia!!! Sweet Ana, Maggie’s hermana in España was featured on the blog earlier in December and agreed to help me with a special potato project by sending me this beautiful compilation of photos and recipe of her mother’s tortilla española.
Here is lovely Carmen. She treated Maggie like a queen in that household and fed her amazingly. We were so lucky to be able to have a specially prepared lunch on our visit. So without further ado, please go for the jump to see pictures and the recipe!

La Boqueria
December 23, 2011 at 7:00 am | Posted in Appetizer, Entertainment, Lunch, Travels | Leave a commentThe next morning, our last full day in Barcelona, we set off to wander and peruse the big amazing market, La Boqueria!!! I had anticipated this visit for many years – I had heard great things. And it did not disappoint.
It was huge and and busy and full of lots and lots of things to eat. We had fun perusing, then went shopping at El Corte Ingles for a bit and then came back to find random things to eat for lunch! Go for the jump to see lots of pretty foodstuffs.
The Fountain, Columbus and Margarita Blue
December 22, 2011 at 2:00 pm | Posted in Dinner, Entertainment, Travels | 1 CommentWhaaa whaaa WHAAAAAA. Come on doesn’t that picture just scream a cool entrance theme? Yeah I know I’m right and I also know I’m crazy… crazy bout Barcelona!
We took a quick cab ride to the fountains at Montjuic Castle and had a grand ol time listening to the christmas music and seeing the beautiful water.
Love this shot of the four of us. Love that you can see the water droplets kinda fogging up the lens. Go check out some more fountain shots and our delicious dinner…
Gaudi y Almuerza
December 22, 2011 at 7:00 am | Posted in Entertainment, Lunch, Travels | 2 CommentsHappy Thirsty Thursday my friends! woooot, I wish I was having a drink right now, but instead I have eaten lots and lots of christmas cookies. Just wait for my Elizabeth’s Cookie Christmas 2011 on Saturday! So when I last left off, we had arrived in Barcelona and had an awesome authentic dinner. The next morning we had a nice breakfast in the hotel and then set off to look at all things Gaudi all around town! First stop was the Casa Mila…
Next stop was SAGRADA FAMILIA!!!! I know you guys have seen all of these cool pictures before, but I was just in such amazement I could not contain myself. I literally walked around this structure and kept saying “This is so awesome… This is so awesome…”
Just as Becca and I discussed tonight, it is so cool to be able to witness such a magnificent structure and be able to see it while it is still in construction. I can’t wait to go back in 30 some odd years to see it completed. Now go check out some more pictures from around town and a nice quick lunch we had in a random square!
