a nice spring time evening

Our version of a backyard bbq- enjoying some spanish tapas and sangria with friends on the terraza. Nico is a friend of mine from Charlotte who lives here in Madrid now and Lucia, his girlfriend, was visiting from Guatemala. Sarah and Khalil (our photographer) are also from Charlotte. The weather was great, the food was yummy, and the company was even better. Sarah and I took our shot at making steamed mussels and they turned out fantastic! They are so easy to make if you enjoy shellfish: a bit garlic, parsley, sherry, olive oil, and lemon and voila!
