I love every aspect of this post, from the Recip(e)rocity newsletter to the memories attached and the adventures that you and Mark have had in coming up with recipes of your own. I love tapas. I loved them in Spain and I love being able to make them at home. However, I've never tried tapas like the ones you've provided recipes for today. I am really intrigued by the stuffed dates, I want to make them for myself! Thanks so much. Yum!
