Navidad



To celebrate Christmas Day, we went to Jonathan and Eric's house and prepared a wonderful feast fit for the kings, the three wise kings to be specific. We had partridges (perdices in Spanish), ribs with homemade BBQ sauce (since that sort of thing can't be found in stores here), mashed potatoes, green beans with ham, apple tart, and pumpkin pie (thanks to Madre). We stuffed ourselves and then proceeded to sing a few carols, with the accompaniment of Jonathan's guitar. Those of us that don't have a clue as to how to play the guitar opted for other instruments--cookie tins, beer bottles, etc. Although we missed seeing everyone in North Carolina, we are so fortunate to have had such good friends here in Spain with whom to spend the holidays.
