So I finally got to spend time with Debbie Love Love! We’ve known each other online for years, and have briefly met up twice at two of our mutual friend Jeanine’s (then) bars, but we never really had a chance to sit down and talk until now. A lunch date was set and it HAD to be at Barra Baja in “our corner” at the bar – by chance both Debbie and I have adopted the end of the bar at BB as “ours”, so this time we shared.
Debbie’s is in the process of ending one chapter of her life and beginning a new one, closing her business Cookie Love Love after 11 years. She is still unsure about what lies ahead but I am sure she’s going to find her new passion before too long. We had a great time talking non-stop for ages and it was great getting to know each other a bit.
Anyhow… lunch. You guessed it…
It went on a while, ending with a penúlitima at another favourite place, Bar Rioja La Esquina, where we were joined by Jeanine. A good day.

i had not seen this, and thank goodness you shared it with me so that i could experience for the first time the feeling of chills on only the right side of my body. i wonder what that means?
maybe it’s flattery to have been written about by “sevilla tapas”, a voice that i have respected, heeded and admired for so many years. shawn will never know just how many reservations or plans i’ve made with friends based on her taste and guidance. i’ve even ordered dishes by showing a waiter one of her photos.
or maybe i’m just happy to have made a new friend, one who like me loves sevilla for everything that it was and almost isn’t anymore; some one with whom i can truly eat, drink and – sobre todo – learn.
mil millones de gracias por la comida espectacular y por las palabras.
a por la próxima … pero jamás la última.

Only on your right side? Stroke??¿
Hey, that was a great afternoon and I was equally glad to finally spend time together and get to know each other. Also… someone who likes day drinking as much as I do!
We’ll have to do it again soon. xx
