Wonderful paella!  And everything else.  My daughter ordered all of the
paella makings from the Fulton Fish Market in NYC and a paella pan from La
Tienda and she made paella for their 11th wedding anniversary on Saturday.
The photos looked fantastic but it was probably not as good as one made at
the source!  It was about the same size, though!

Your photos make me jealous!  I want to travel.

Thanks!

Tina
