How to Keep a Builder Happy

November 27, 2014

Vincent lives in my village, he is a retired builder and has done some work on my house over the past couple of years.

One day and completely out of the blue he told me that this place (my casa) needs a little pool. I replied crying with poverty, it is on my wish list. He asked me if I had the funds for the materials which I did more or less so without prompting he offered to build it for me for free.

Well, you cannot turn an offer like that down, can you? Anyway, it costs me an arm and a leg in sausages and cold beer but it is a small price to pay.

Sausage and fried onions wrap with Salsa y Especias Sierra Nevada's salsa picante de mostaza habañero.

Muy picante!
