Glúglu

Posted by staley | 25th November 2009

Apart from the classes Matt dedicated to teaching his kiddos about Turducken, Thanksgiving would likely have quietly come and gone without as much as a glúglu (gobble, gobble) being uttered here in Vera. Since the Spanish obviously do not celebrate Thanksgiving and Matt and I aren’t planning on stuffing a turkey or searching for a cranberry bog later this afternoon, tomorrow will likely be a normal day (maybe we’ll at least eat a turkey sandwich or two). Still, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, we thought we’d share a few things we’ve found ourselves to be most grateful for while we’ve been living in Spain.

* Mercadona- Mercadona is the grocery store in Vera that Matt and I frequent at least two or three times each week. The store is relatively smaller than most grocery stores in the U.S., but if you can’t find the food item you are looking for in Mercadona, you won’t find it anywhere this side of the Spanish Sierra Nevada mountains.

* Döner Kebab- Vera’s only “fast food”
