Food: Pastries and pinchos y tapas

'
"Palmeras de chocolate" my favorite...

Pastries and chocolates...





Jamon Serrano...



...and these are tapas and pinchos...they are displayed like this in bars and you eat whatever you want. at the end, and when you are going to pay, you tell them how many you ate and pay for them....they trust your honesty!

I feel like cooking.....bad food! (or delicious treats...:)

Nooo!!!! I'm trying to lose some weight before I go to Spain and this is all I can think about today!!!...homemade oreos????


....what??? I found the recipe here, and they also have recipes for homemade Twinkies and hostess cupcakes!...I hope I'm strong enough to resist the temptation of making any of these not- so- healthy treats!

jello salad=pain the in the butt:)


...yes my friends...I always wanted to do one of these, because it's such a part of the culture here in Utah, but let me tell you, in order to do one of these you need to have a whole day at home, no babies and tons of patience!!!!...my nephews liked it and Elizabeth even dressed accordingly!:)
