OK, breakfast can consist of bacon, egg and chips...
...but if you are on a diet, maybe just a bocadillo.
After all, we only come here once a year!
After the shopping it's on with the BBQ and the aubergines and peppers are roasted first,...
...the strawberries hulled and quartered...
...and the cheese, jamón and olives put onto plates.
Outside, the weather isn't too good, after all, it is Easter Monday and it's traditional for it to be cold and wet...
...but inside we have the fire roaring away...
...as the food is prepared.
This year there are only 3 couples for the meal...
...but that certainly doesn't stop it being really enjoyable.
Next up, the artichokes are roasted, they have hearts too,...
...and then the meat is cooked,...
...loads of lamb chops...
...and some morcilla.
When we bought the meat this morning at the local butchers we asked for lamb chops and the butcher brought out half a lamb and cut it up for us - none of this hanging around pre-cut in boxes in a cool display with a best-by date on it!
The weather is looking brighter...
...as we work our way through the meal.
Everything in the countryside looks fresher after the rain...
...and we finally get to the strawberries and cream.
What a wonderful way to spend an Easter Monday!
