Monday Morning Photo - Wisteria Time in Andalucia

How quickly spring comes around after the short winter here in the Sierra Sur de Jaén. After lots of very much needed rain we´re back to the normal cloudless blue.  My garden is shooting incredbily with the moisture and now sunshine. And my beautiful wisteria flowers grandly albeit it short-lived. The big black carpenter bees love it. Each flowering season reminds me of the Botanical Gardens in Malaga and the ´tunnel´ of wisteria that I haven´t yet caught in bloom. April is a good time to plan to go if it´s on your list.  Here´s the botanical garden link La Concepción Botanical Gardens. And a sneaky peak at the wisteria. See the Monday Morning Photos list.

Monday Morning Photo - Wild Asparagus from the Olive Groves

After a month of rain and two weeks of sun the wild asparagus is prolific this year. Revuelto de Espárragos for supper tonight.




Revuelto is a great recipe/idea to use up any leftovers you might have. A few green beans or spinach or asparagus? Pop it it a frying pan with some olive oil and garlic, add any chopped up bits of chorizo or jamon you have then pour in a beaten egg or two, depending on the quantity of veg/meat you have and there you have it a quick instant and healthy supper.
