The Butcherette
I just came across a photo I took last summer:
Even if you don't know what a Carniceria could be, SeƱora Mari Carmen's sign helps you figure it out. The sign actually caught my eye as it is very unusual in Spain (and I guess in other countries too) for a woman to own a butchery. However, when I went in and saw this very large older lady with very strong arms and very big hands chopping steaks with a ferocious expression, I knew she was born to be a butcher!

I think it's a blogger issue - ever since they started using their own Picasa to host the blog images, it's been playing up!
