151/365: In preparation for the Full Experience
We had a "typical" Catalan dinner at our house: tortilla de patatas (bottom left corner, not entirely visible), olives, tomatoes, really good ham, bread, cheese, beer. Also not pictured: the lovely fuet. Instead of beer, I had a clara, another inspired Spanish drink consisting of half a glass of beer mixed with half a glass of Schweppes or Fanta lemon soda. Among my greatest sadnesses in life is that Fanta sells all sorts of nasty soda flavors in the US, but not lemon. I guess in Britain this same drink is called a shandy, and it could be made with Sprite or non-carbonated lemonade, but it just wouldn't be the same.
Also, despite recently having made fun of the Pan con Tomate flickr group, I nevertheless added my contribution.

Ham and bacon are really the only two meats I miss, so I would welcome that "full experience"
