Remember when I told you that my pal Diego was being featured in an ad campaign for the Sevilla Feria & Toros this year? Well, here he is in action at Casa Morales. Last night he gave me his autograph – I think fame might be going to his head. 😉

mr potato face

The other day I was doing some tapas tour training with Aldara for the We Love Tapas Market Tour and we came across this guy. It reminded me of the very best tomatoes I’d ever tasted, bought out of the boot of a car in a village near Sevilla. They were the lumpiest, most misshapen tomatoes I’d ever seen too. Lately there is a growing trend of shops selling “wonky veg”, along with food that is past its sell-by date, at bargain prices. It’s a great idea, don’t you think? Especially for families on a budget, but really for anyone against wasting food for no reason. I think – and hope – we will see more of these outlets soon.

crosses to bear

Spotted these guys while on a tapas tour. They were transporting wooden crosses from a van parked in Plaza Santa Cruz to… wherever. Probably the Santa Cruz Church. These will be carried by some of the Nazarenos (others carry long candles) during the Semana Santa processions. There is so much preparation that goes into this crazy week (I like it, but it really is crazy) that I find my heart aching for everyone who is going to be devastated by the seriously rainy-stormy weather, forecasted to start Palm Sunday. Let’s hope things clear up! Because if it rains, nothing happens.

az wuz here

I picked these beauties on my way home. Love carrying azahar around in my pocket and, when I was doing this in Jerez, I’d leave them on the ledge behind my hotel bed (which happened twice as we changed rooms for the second night). Jo said it was like leaving my “trademark” behind – az wuz here. 🙂
