A friend and his wife have been planning a ten day trip to Spain for a while. I had told him he needed to eat lots of tapas and drink lots of Rioja for me. I was telling him about some of the tapas and finally brought my Penelope Casas "Tapas - The Little Dishes of Spain" to show him. He borrowed it. He came back to work Monday. He told me proudly how he carried my book around with him and into the tapas bars. When he asked to try something and they didn't understand him he would point it out in the cookbook to ask if they had it. He said they frequently would beam "Si". I can't believe my book got to go and I didn't, but I will cherish the mental picture of my book in all those tapas bars.
