I’ve been enjoying the lovely weather this week with still quite warm daytime temperatures (30º) but with cool breezes, and overnight temps requiring the light duvet for the first time. Next week will be a whole other story as the forecast in Galicia is for RAIN all week and daytime highs of just 16-17º, which is like January in Sevilla. It also means that I will have to wear (gasp!) TIGHTS & SHOES. Let’s hope there are still at least a couple more weeks of sandal weather when I get back…

Happy Andalucía Day!
It’s also the first day wearing sandals this year, and a record-breaker. Previously the earliest day recorded was on March 9, 2015. In fact, it’s been warm enough for sandals (at least during the day) since last weekend, but I only now got around to doing a quick pedi. My toes already feel happier. 🙂

Coldest day of the 2018-2019 winter so far – overnight temps 2º, daytime high of just 14º. Brrrrrrrrr…. and so while I do have the luxury of functioning central heating here at Casa Azahar, it’s also nice to feel warmed up from the inside. Hence this spicy chicken garam masala, chock full of veg (red & green peppers, onions, garlic, spinach, courgette, parsley, cilantro) which is making the house smell amazing. Will add yoghurt when it’s served. Only problemita is that I’ve made enough for at least 8 people. Who’s coming over? 😉

I am finally resigned to the idea that it is NO LONGER SUMMER. I’ve swapped over my wardrobe and have put the sandals away. It’ll be tights and shoes until March now! And the duvet is on the bed, which actually feels nice and cosy – also, the cats love it! Still haven’t put the heat on at home yet though, but reckon that’ll happen soon. So yeah, this is winter (we don’t really get autumn here). Some days it’s still warm enough to wear just a light jacket, but the rains have started so there’s also that. But then there are beautiful wispy cloud days like this, which I also love. Hola winter, and welcome.
Summer temps have arrived – 30º and higher all week – so it’s time to put away the duvet and sip strawberry daiquiris on a shady rooftop next to the pool. 🙂
