Spainbuddy’s Spanish Christmas Gift Ideas – 2013
Well… it’s almost that time, so we’ve brought together some silly Spanish Christmas gift ideas to get you thinking. What’s on your Christmas list?
The items in our list don’t always match exactly between Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk… but we’ve tried to get them as close as possible for you. Happy shopping!

For the Chef
The “cazuela” is the most used item in the Spain Buddy kitchen… and once you have started cooking with one, you’ll see why!
These dishes are found in any self-respecting Spanish kitchen, and can be used for everything from pies and casseroles… to prawns and veggies
Want some inspiration? Here are a couple of recipes for you

For the budding señorita
What little girl doesn’t like to dress up? Not many, that’s for sure.
Put a big smile on your little princess’ face with this charming frilly number.
Be prepared to run the washing machine overnight though, as your little treasure may well refuse to go anywhere without popping on her lacy dress… twirling and stomping as she adds a new musical take onto her newly-composed Spanish songs.
Britain’s Got Talent could always benefit from your talented gem and her charming rendition couldn’t it?

For your Mum
Yes, we know it’s clichéd, but getting Mum some smellies is always going to keep you in her good books.
This popular Spanish scent has floral notes and we are reliably informed, is considered a lovely gift for the more mature lady in your life… or for the lady that likes to smell great all year round
It’s only fair – after all, she brought you up to be the well rounded grown-up that you are *cough*
Just don’t tell her you bought it for her because she smells a bit whiffy.

For Dad
While we’re rolling with the clichés… let’s have one for Dad – socks!
Sod your Simpson’s socks… your Garfield socks… and your “Best Dad in The World” socks… these black socks are a little more stylish, with a discreet Spanish flag on each ankle.
When you click the links to the right, you’ll see there are a number of different nations to choose from – so why not stock up on a few… that’s the next few birthdays and Christmasses covered then… and Dad’s tootsies will be lovely and warm. Oh, and he’ll be able to match them into pairs easily too.

For the idiot mate
Anyone with half a braincell knows that the Sombrero hat is not Spanish… and that no Spaniard would be seen dead in one (except perhaps for a fancy dress party).
We’ve all got “that mate” though… who will jump at the opportunity to don his large brimmed hat, his fake moustache, a poncho… and head to the nearest party. So make his day by nabbing him one of these straw numbers.
Don’t be too dismayed if he chooses to wear it down your local pub though – once he’s had a cerveza or two over the top… you can use his hat for target practice. How many peanuts can you toss into the brim before he wakes up and demands his turn on the karaoke?
