Six years ago today we went into Covid-19 lockdown in Spain, which also happened to be a Saturday. Don’t know how l would’ve managed without these three, seen here competing for lap and leg space. Morcilla 🐈⬛ and Luna🌙 are still with me, Loki 🐈 is still missed 🐾

Look what has arrived! My good friend Jorge Guitián has published his first solo book. Congratulations Jorge! Now all I need is for him to come to Sevilla and sign it. 🙂
This essay reflects on how cuisine has become a powerful mirror of societal transformations. It questions issues such as the meaning of haute cuisine, the role of criticism, culinary traditions, and new food dynamics. But it is not only a diagnosis: it is also a poetic and urgent call to reconnect with what is authentic, familiar, and everyday.

Thank you Thank you Thank you! 🧡
So not only did I turn over to 500 subscribers after posting my last article on Ronda, my 500th subscriber ended up being Sergio, my friend from Grazalema
I had been hoping to hit 500 by January 1st, my Bitesize first anniversary, but this kind of feels right.
I’m also #59 Rising in Culture, whatever that means.
