Off, Off and Away

No, I am not abandoning you.  I'm just taking a two-week hiatus from this blog.

There is good reason for this.  Henry and I are about to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary (how did I get to be this old, anyway and how in the hell have we managed to stay married for this long?) so we decided to do it up right.

We are headed to Spain, first to hike for a week in the Pyrenees, then another week in Barcelona and Madrid.  I'm thinking there is a lot of pork in my future.

Can we afford this?  No.  Should we be doing this right now, given all of the family drama that is currently going on?  No.  Are we doing it anyway?  Yep!

We thought about canceling this trip, more than once.  At the end of the day, we decided we should go for it while we are still "young" enough and healthy enough to trek through the Pyrenees. 

 I promise I will come back with lots of food ideas and recipes.
