\nBut I begin with a misty morning as seen from my back yard. Ten minutes later the sun had done away with this fog:

\nAlternates<\/strong>:<\/p>\n
\nOne afternoon at the office, the sky was interesting so I photographed the abandoned construction project that constitutes my view. This building was one of the first victims of the crisis and has been in this state for two years:

<\/p>\n
\nOne of the social clubs at the office is the Intellectuals cricket club. This week it inaugurated its own pitch, at a local country club. Until now, they had no home pitch and all games were played at grounds 50-100 km from Alicante. I am the unofficial team photographer:
\n![\"L1001245\"](\"uploads\/2010\/16alt2.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nThe new ground was inaugurated with an intra-club game. Here is the captain giving last-minute instructions, which are being listened to not very attentively:

<\/p>\n
\nThe scorer in action; note the critical supplies behind the scoreboard:

<\/p>\n
\nThe long walk after being bowled out:

<\/p>\n
\nThe crowd goes wild:

<\/p>\n
\nWe have quite a few informal receptions in the office, either because of someone’s birthday or, like here, to celebrate the retirement of a project management reporting system which has been replaced by something better. Here are Pilar and Maria, cleaning up afterwards:
\n![\"_1000835\"](\"uploads\/2010\/16alt7.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nAnother social club at the office is the wine club Bacchus. Its main activity is a monthly wine tasting, where a representative of a bodega comes to present the wines. Usually, before the tasting itself there is a presentation of the winery. Here is the co-owner of Castell d’Encus in Catalunya, Ra\u00c3\u0192\u00c2\u00bcl Bobet. His slides are in Catalan but he spoke in normal Spanish, Castellano:

\nFernando works in IT. He is a real foodie and wino:

\nSwirling with a suspicious look at the photographer:

\nMy wife is Puerto Rican, but has over the years learned to make one of the traditional Polish dishes, go\u00c3\u2026\u00e2\u20ac\u0161\u00c3\u201e\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6bki<\/em> (literally it means “little pigeons”), basically cabbage stuffed with rice or meat. Note the vodka–indispensable to make the Polish culinary experience complete:

<\/p>\n
\nMy daughter’s hobby in the kitchen is to make vegan food; this week’s highlight were these tequila cupcakes:
\n![\"L1001257\"](\"uploads\/2010\/16alt12.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nFinally, a different kind of “food”. I was enjoying a beer and the sunshine on Saturday afternoon when the cat brought this contribution to the household:
