Crafty in the Med

I am here to enjoy meeting other bloggers and to share my love of craft ,mostly crochet, my thoughts and my daily happenings here in Alicante,Spain, my adopted country. I belong to a local choir because singing and music makes me happy. Flea markets and book shops are two of my favourite places to be. I read lots......sci´fi/fantasy,buried treasure, and off world adventures. I have a passion for history! I walk and walk and walk for about 10 months per year during the hot months I swim.

HAPPY HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL

FELIZ AÑO NUEVO

as always I am in a rush!!!!! 

 I have to host a dinner for 6 this evening ....all last minute prep.
I thought we would be going out but the city is heaving with people and everything was left to the very last minute. My nephew and his wife are visiting from Dubai and it was difficult to make plans until we could sort it with them on arrival ....no matter it is going to be a fun,fun,fun dinner and then a race down to the Town Hall to eat the grapes (that is what they do here...1 grape for each chime) to the chimes of the Town Hall clock!


I hope you all have a wonderful evening and I wish you all dear friends out there in bloggy world a happy and healthy 2014. 
Thank you most of all for your patience when I haven't always been able to reply to your comments and off I go ...... fly, fly ,fly to cook some quick and easy but yummy things to eat this evening.


oh!!!!    yes please!!!


Amanda :-)
