One of my favourite things to do on holiday is to go food shopping.
Three out of four of our contingent is vegetarian, so with the best will in the world, some meals have to be self catered.
Vegetarians get a raw deal in the UK, however we always come home from our holidays grateful that at least most places here have a vegetarian option.
During our recent trip to Spain, we found a particularly lovely Carrefore supermarket.
It was clean and airy with a vast range of everything we could possibly need. It was easy to navigate and even the girls didn’t mind visiting.
There was an abundance of choice of everything that we could possibly want to eat.
We were particularly taken with the produce section.Just look at those tomatoes and aubergines – wonderful!
As you would expect, the Tapas section was huge.
We enjoyed the feasts we created from our finds!
One of my many guilty pleasures is crisps and we all giggled when we saw this packet with my name on ha!
Am I alone in this slight obsession with foreign supermarkets because don’t every get me started on Publix in America, my favorite ever!
Have a lovely day!
OMG the colours are amazing and the food looks delicious!

Fruit and Veg always taste so much better in warmer climes I find. The bigger the bag of crisps the better – especially if it has got your name on!
