This week’s Friday Foto Finder challenge is “sale”.
An appropriate theme for the last day of the winter sales that started on January 7th (aka my birthday!). It occurred to me that I didn’t buy one thing during the sales – damn. Will have to wait until July now.
Check out what other Friday Foto Finders are posting over here!

Last night I was invited to a special event at the gorgeous Parador Hotel in Carmona, just a half-hour’s drive from Sevilla. There was a presentation about new products and promotions for 2014 followed by cocktails and snacks. Then there was a draw for a night’s stay in any Parador Hotel in Spain. AND I WON!!! But now … which one to choose? A happy dilemma indeed.

Flamenquin con salmorejo (Córdoba) | Gazpachuelo (Málaga)
Andrajos (Jaén) | Tortilla de Sacromonte (Granada)
Yep, the things I do for my public. This was not just lunch but a tapas tour around Andalucía. Andalucía is one of Spain’s 17 autonomous regions, comprising eight provinces. As a very clever way of celebrating Andalucía day (this Friday) Juanlu at La Pepona came up with the idea of offering one traditional tapa from each Andalusian province. And here they are!
Olla de trigo (Almería) | Tortillitas de Camarones (Cádiz)
Huevos a la flamenca (Seville) | Habas con chocos (Huelva)
I was aided in this endevour (which I could never have managed on my own!) by Peter @SVQconcierge and Markus @veoapartment. We fearlessy tasted each provincial delight for you, including crunchy pig’s ear and BRAINS. Thanks guys!
