New year

Hello dear readers. I´ve been away all this time, driving around southern Spain staying with friends and relatives. There´s nothing better and more fun, and having no wi-i for days means you appreciate an internet connection so much when you get back.

The trouble is, I have to sort out our mountains of luggage and cram everything I didn´t do in Madrid into two days, so I can´t do a good, thoughtful post.

I will just say that along with everybody else, I´m brimming with good resolutions, and one of them is to give this old blog a good dust and brush up. Also to post a few good comforting recipes for horrid winter days. A list of my favourite cookbooks of 2010, of great posts found elsewhere, etc.

But not now. Now I have to cram a ton of clothes and a tribe of toys into two suitcases. Argh.
