The Christmas Holidays are here and I have discovered a new tradition that I am quite fond of. I also have a few other food oddities to mention.
But first- Pan de Jamon. (there is no Panda in this dish- sorry). Around Christmas the bakeries start to roll out these delightful loafs full of Ham, raisins, and green olives. It sounds an odd combination but let me tell you- it is so tasty that even Lisa forgets her wheat allergy and has a small slice or two.

| Pan de Jamon does not come with cute plush toys. |

| All told this thing weighs a good 8 pounds. |

| and the innards! looks a bit suspect- but tastes like a feliz navidad! |
Some other foods that have caught my eye. Butter can be hard to find at times until a friend told us about butter in a can- Cannot figure out why the picture is sideways- but let me tell you- butter in a can is delightful and most likely what all my friends back in the states will be getting for christmas this year.
Not much to say on this last one except that I have never enjoyed reading a sugar bag more than when I read an azucarcasa sugar bag.
