Roughly translated the title of this blog means, "with bread and wine we make the journey." I have picked this Spanish proverb for two reasons. First, the proverb is a nice reminder that in order to live, we actually need very little. (both bread and wine are very cheap in Spain) In difficult times, I hope that we can remember we all have much more than we need and that we can all live with less things. Secondly, this proverb makes me laugh because of how much Spanish people love bread, which is a staple at every meal of the day. During my recent trip to Caceres I discovered a new use of bread that I had never heard of, the chocolate sandwich. That is right!!!!! I took a picture of my friend's roommate (above) who introduced me to this magical invention. Aparently a very common sandwich for small kids, it is quite easy to make. Grab some bread and a chunck of chocolate and walaaaa!!! you have it. It reminded me of a smore without the marshmellow.
