There are a lot of things that keep bringing us back to this area of Spain. Today I will share a couple of things that we have been able to count on. The sunsets are almost always grand.
They are a deep pink orange in color. Our building faces the water. We have two windows that face backwards - towards the sunset.
Which means the sun rises over the water. This time of year the mornings are overcast and it takes some time for the sun to come through. The small dot in the patch of light is a fishing boat heading out for a days work.
And the last thing I want to show you is the great idea of "Menu de Dia" This is a bargain of a meal that includes 3 different courses for a fixed price. We paid about $30 for the two of us to have - in this case - actually 4 courses. The first was a cold tomato soup - no photo. Then a starter followed by the main and then a coffee or desert. It also included a drink - that could be wine, beer or soda.
My starter - a chicken salad made with oranges, chicken vegetables such as carrots and celery and lots of mayo.
Michael's starter - mussels
One of the choices for the main - was this lasagna which was delicious.
Michael got orange chicken. A nice piece of white meat chicken served with fries.
I had a cola, Michael had red wine and bottled water. The desert was called flan - I am not a fan of any of those kinds of deserts - so Michael got his expresso and had my desert! I was so full I didn't mind at all. That is why we don't order this meal very often!
OMG. Mom. Your starter is very certainly very perky. You need to go back and look back at your picture of the mayo starter salad you had. I literally started crying from laughter.
