bird's eye view...

Incredible isn't it? Tulip fields in Holland! 

más Madrid

 We took a quick trip to Madrid to start the process for Diego's residency visa last week-step one is complete, two more to go! The rest of the trip we relaxed on terraces with tinto de veranos, window shopped in Chueca and Fuencarral, enjoyed PhotoEspaña exhibits, and took an afternoon stroll at the Real Jardin Botánico.

Easy Tinto de Verano: 

1 (3 1/4 cup) bottle red wine (make it a cheap one) 

2 liters lime flavored seltzer water

2 cups sugar 

4 slices oranges (to garnish)

Mickey D's

Isn't it funny how McDonalds changes the menu to fit cultures? Now serving toast with tomato and olive oil, a Spanish classic.

summertime rafts...

This looks just like where I spent all my summers as a kid in Michigan...in the middle of the lake on the old wooden raft. And these clothes look just like how I want to spend this summer. See more dreamy summer looks at Hound. 

Así pase mis veranos de niña en Michigan, flotando en una plataforma vieja medio del lago. Así quiero pasar mi verano nuevo, en ropa tan sencilla. Ver más en Hound.
