Usually barefoot in the summertime, warm socks in the wintertime.

This just makes me sad that thanks to Covid we were originally going to have a Spanish boy at our house this year - but no more. :(

The two Spanish girls we had at our house were a delight to have around though, even though they came from completely different parts of the country, and had completely different personalities.

Okay, wait. What is a "tortilla" in Spain? Because what they just ate looked like a piece of cake, not a tortilla as I know them. :unsure:
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Once you move to Spain you will have to identify which football team you want to support and, more contentiously, if you are a concebollista or a sincebollista. These are very much "Sliding Doors" type decisions :o

The wonderful Felicity Cloake did a version recently - and they are fun to make but I have accidentlaly had to make enormous ones due to over-ambition not having an appropriately sized frying pan :blush:

Meri doesn't have to decide...it will definitely be a sincebollista.  :P

I looked it up. I don't eat onions, so that's a simple answer for me. ALWAYS sincebollista in pretty much everything... which Toni is well aware of. :lol:

Perfect. :) That's where I'm looking, anyway.

So true.  :lmfao:

I'm a "sincebollista" that tolerates the opposite option.  :)

Another fault line is the degree of doneness. Does it have to be fully solid or can it be runny?

I get genuine nausea when that shit's not done properly.  :x

I am very much an interloper in this debate - but fully solid. It's not a French omelette which is all about runniness <_<
