Too many and too often!
This article caught my eye this morning. The return of an annual romeria - local pilgrimage - by Galicians to the Cruz de Ferro on July 31st. This event has been suspended for two years because of Covid. One of a number of stories I have seen recently noting the return of romerias in various parts of Spain. A significant part of Spanish religious culture that has no real equivalent in my own homeland in the UK. I read the article using Google Translate and was pleased to see that one of the attractions of the day is to be "pregnant buns" :)

 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

Seems like so many of this type of specialty dish have colorful names. I guess "pregnant buns" are a good name for buns contiaining a piece of chorizo. Not to my taste, but I'm sure many will enjoy them. Glad to see the romerias are back.
