Cafe Touba, Spanish Street Life and A Senegalese Supper

22 Sep

1. A beautiful breakfast of croissants with Spanish ham and Cafe Touba, the smell and taste of which took me straight back to Senegal and our breakfasts in the outdoors dining area. This morning was also full of conversations using English, French and Wolof!

2. D had to work this morning so A took us for a stroll around Granollers, meeting him after his teaching session. We waited outside the school and watched the world go by, families, a man with a tree, a woman hurrying by with a cake, and round the corner, a wedding with explosive confetti and an amazingly long Limousine.

3. A cooked us a beautiful Senegalese chicken dish called Yassa which was utterly delicious and which again took us back to Senegal and our fabulous time there in April for the wedding.

    I love people watching too – it looks like the Spanish are a beautiful people. When I was in Italy it was like that too….sitting in Venice in St Marks square with a too expensive coffe watching people…well worth it.

    I love eating outside. The weather here is now getting nice enough to enjoy eating on the patio. Get a big tray and carry it all outside. Leisurely eat and visit. 🙂

    (then carry it all back in…..lol )

    And this chicken dish looks wonderful!
