A shout out to my flatmate and longtime friend Peter. Because I honestly don’t know how I’d be getting along without his help right now. Especially since the KNEE happened… he’s been hanging my laundry up on the roof for me because not only would walking up to the roof be challenging, doing it with a basket full of wet laundry would actually be impossible. He also takes the rubbish down to the bins (a five minute walk that would now take me 15). He changes the cat sand, does a lot of the household chores (while I do all the cooking and household management, making sure rent and bills are paid, etc, dealing with repairs, landlord issues, etc).

He is also my sous chef… all those great meals you see me posting on my azahar instagram? He’s peeled all the onions, garlic, potatoes… AND he does the washing up! Anyhow, just to say that we may drive each other crazy at times, but it turns out that after 20 years we’ve found a way of sharing a space and our lives, and that’s it’s actually nice. Thanks Peter!

sister sue (1)

The last time I saw my sister Sue was when she was back in town in 2014. So it was a wonderful surprise when she left a message here the other day saying she would be passing through Sevilla over the weekend with her husband Greg. Anyhow, as Paul is also in town this week we decided to all get together for a fabulous feast, with Peter joining us too.  And feast we did. We started off with a few tapitas at Casa Morales and then moved on for the “main course” at Señor Cangrejo.

It was a lovely afternoon, catching up, lots of laughs and some reminiscing. Sure hope it’s not another ten years before I see her again.

What a lovely surprise to see Ishay again after… 9 years! Last time we were together was in London as part of a Foodie Hub global meet up. Ishay got in touch while I was in Jerez to say she’d be in town for a couple of days with her friend Tuanni and so last night they joined me on a tapas tour with a lovely couple from Australia. We had a great time and it was lovely to her again and catch up. Our last meal together (below) at Kitty Fisher’s in London.

I first met Yin in person a couple of years ago (after knowing her for years virtually) and this week she was back in town for a quick overnight stop. Happily she had time to meet up for lunch and we headed over to Palo Cortao, a new spot for Yin although she’s no stranger to Sevilla. Lovely afternoon and, as always, she somehow got me to pose for a selfie. Well, she also always allows me to “hide” so there’s that.

Another fabulous Twitter Pal meet up, this time with Fred & Susan. I’ve known Fred on Twitter for ages (Susan is more of an Instagram lurker) and we have a lot of the same London Twitter friends in common, so it was great to finally get together for an afternoon of tapas, wine and chat. And omg what a wonderful day it was. We started off at Zurbarán and finished at Salmedina with a seafood feast, though of course not properly finishing without a cava penúltima at nearby Catalina La Barra. Thanks for a delicious day guys, come back soon!
