Turkey Newburg: with Sherry and Iberian Ham; Romantic Spain; our Valentine’s Day story

Thyme for Cooking Posted on February 14, 2011 by KateAugust 11, 2013

Note: This is a reprint from Valentine's Day, 2008.  I didn't get my act together in time to participate in Mele Cotte's Cucina d'Amore this year, but I wanted to share this recipe, again, as it makes a lovely dinner for two… As to our Valentine's story, well, it did have a happy ending! The weekly update will be tomorrow. Mon mari often complains that I never forget anything and, … Continue reading →

White Wine Sangria; Cheap wine and a Tapa

Thyme for Cooking Posted on July 28, 2010 by KateAugust 16, 2015

Paradors (and Pousadas)

Thyme for Cooking Posted on May 19, 2006 by KateMay 19, 2013

The idea of staying in a 'state-owned' hotel never had much appeal to me….visions of early 'eastern-block'  square, concrete architecture with tiny, glass-block windows, faded linoleum, and drippy faucets (cold water only) were conjured in my mind.  I'll pass, I thought.  Since I left university I have insisted on some basic comforts whilst traveling: running hot water and bathrooms (loos) with actual toilets (rather than a nice, ceramic hole in … Continue reading →
