Nerja Carnival 2012 : God amongst men

Out of all the images I took this evening this is the one I adore. Truly, this man was Adonis in the flesh.

One of my favourite salads in Nerja can be found at Cafe La Forja, Avda Mediterraneo, Nerja. This delightfully fruity salad comes with strawberries, kiwi, apple, pineapple and orange as well as the more “traditional” salad items. Delicious drizzled with olive oil, white wine vinegar and a light sprinkle of salt. Lovely! Taken on my mobile so a little fuzzy

Walking along the front at the moment is lovely. On Saturday the sun was shining but, owing to the strong winds, it was still a little cold. The flowers in the small gardens have started to bloom though – very pretty. Failed to do them any real justice.

Apologies for the lack of updates of late – my schedule is hectic. Not only do I currently have quite a few jobs on at present but my exercise regime is really busy too. In between walking, interval training and swimming all I seem to do is work! But I am hoping for a payoff come August when I intend to take the month off to celebrate my (hopefully) greatly reduced moi

I find Roscon de Reyes irrestible at this time of year – if anything is likely to lead me off the path to weight loss its this Spanish delight! (most especially when filled with nata or crema de trufa). Since my birthday lands on the 5th of the month I generally have a Roscon instead of a birthday cake I love it so much – filled with crema de trufa and nata because I´m greedy!

We ate the final pieces of our Roscon on Saturday for breakfast (shaming I know) and then the staff of Cafeteria Jamaica made it worse by ignoring my denial of a dessert by bringing me a free slice – oh, how I love those guys!

New Years Eve was spent on the Balcon de Europa in Nerja. It was a fun night with lots of champagne but a lower key affair than previous years owing to the cutbacks. Still everyone seemed to be having fun.

At this point we were on the 30 minute countdown to New Year

Happy New Year!

Our “Tronco de Navidad”, our pudding for today. Its filled with a personal favourite of mine – crema de trufa. Yum!

More Christmas lights have appeared in the main public areas in Nerja. These are the beautiful lights on the Balcon de Europa.
