Missing Madrid on this crisp fall morning. Would have been the perfect day for a café con leche caliente on a terraza and a toast with crushed tomato and olive oil (tostada con tomate) somewhere, anywhere there.

Thinking about my first time in Granada back in 2009. It was the beginning of my love affair with this amazing city. This is the Generalife -the summer getaway palace- inside the Alhambra. Do you want to visit this site? Send me a PM!

So true!

Yesterday in Spanish history: On August 19, 1936, Federico García Lorca was assassinated by Franco's forces near Granada. He was buried in a mass grave, the site of which has never been verified. Although a site has been postulated, Lorca's family have refused permission to disturb the graves of others in order to find him. In life, Lorca was obsessed with his own death, haunted by a premonition of his early demise. His severed head can be seen in some of Dalí's work from the era in which they were close friends. When he died, Lorca was working on a trilogy of plays and we were left with the gaping hole of the final play, although many wish to argue that one of his completed plays was the final one. The controversy continues. He was a poet, a playwright, a musician, and a philanthropist; he was the type of person who could get along with anyone. Everyone who met him only spoke lovingly of him. The world lost out greatly when he died.

On this day in Spanish History: In 1936, part of the army, led by Francisco Franco, rose up against the Second Republic of Spain in an attempted coup that started the Spanish Civil War. This day marks the start of a three-year struggle that ended in a dictatorship which lasted until Franco's death in 1975.

On this day in Spanish history: Juana of Austria was born in 1535 in Madrid. Great Granddaughter of the Catholic Kings, Ferdinand and Isabel, she held many titles, was married off to the Portuguese King Joao Manuel, and was even regent of Spain during her brother Felipe's absence when he went to England to marry Queen Mary I of England.

On this day in Spanish history: In 1158 Sancho III of Castilla (Castile) and his brother Fernando II of León signed the Treaty of Sahagún which brought peace between both realms. It also promised mutual support and, in the event that either died without an heir, bestowed that realm to the surviving brother. They also agreed to split evenly all lands "reconquered" from the Moors.

On this day in Spanish history: In 1833, the daughter of King Fernando VII, Isabel, was named the Princess of Asturias and heir to the throne. She was only three years old and, when her father died a few months later, her uncle refused to accept her as Queen. This led to the First Carlist War.
