Capone riding a Bike


 That is a funny graffiti with Capone letters and Tetris blocks/bricks.

I purposely captured the rider because I liked the idea of Al Capone on a bike.

That graffiti is located between Segura river and the beginning of Ciudad de Almeria avenue.

 TrIbute to Murcia as the Spanish Capital of Gastronomy 2020. That graffiti was made by Kraser and Nels and she is Hestia, greek goddess of the hearth, home, domesticity, virginity, family, and the state. It is 180 square meters located in the neighborhood of El Carmen.

December'20 Theme Day: Comfort Food.


 At CityDailyPhoto community, the Theme Day for December 2020 is "Comfort Food". From definition on Wikipedia: "Comfort food is kinds of food that provides a nostalgic or sentimental value to someone, and may be characterized by its high caloric nature, high carbohydrate level, or simple preparation. The nostalgia may be specific to an individual, or it may apply to a specific culture."

Well, taking that definition, I have selected: paparajotes as my comfort food. That is the most famous dessert from Murcian cuisine.

Below, the recipe:

 A piece of lemon-leaf batter. It's a dessert that although it is somewhat rustic, is delicious. Indeed, there is NOT eating the leaves, just the batter.

Then, ingredients and preparation of paparajote. I hope you enjoy it. -2 Eggs -1 / 2 liters of milk -1 / 2 on yeast -500 Gr flour -100 Gr Sugar -Olive oil -Sugar and cinnamon to sprinkle -A pinch of salt -Lemon-leaves

Beat the eggs, and milk is added, the yeast and the salt is removed by adding all the flour to form that supports a creamy mass.

Put the olive oil to heat, when hot are wetting the leaves of lemon in the dough and fried.

You can eat as they leave the pan, sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon. It may be accompanied by ice cream.

Bon profit!

Here you can see thumbnails of all participants on Theme Day.
