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.

Mouth-Watering Spanish Recipes - ebook

I had the pleasure of being sent an ebook of Mouth-Watering Spanish Recipes written by Victoria Twead of Chickens, Mules & Two Old Fools and Two Old Fools - Olé! fame together with Gayle MacDonald from Orce Serrano an online Spanish delicatessen.

It was for this reason I wrote the post Kindle app for free as I didn´t have a kindle and Victoria pointed me to the free laptop app on Amazon, which I wouldn´t be without now and has me converted to the world of Kindle reading. Of course I want a proper one now.

But I waffle. The ebook with colour photographs is very good. Recipes and comments by both authors make it lively and fun, a cut above others. I´ve (well hubby actually) tried a couple of recipes with great success. He´s definitely a better tester than me as he´s a stickler for weighing out accurately rather than guessing like me.

Every recipe is accompanied by a photo of the dish made by Gayle and photographed by her husband Iain. The team-work shows in this carefully prepared ebook. It´s easy on the eye and tempting too.
