This week, Ailsa’s Travel Theme is “Temptation.” That immediately made me think of food, not only because there’s a lot of tempting food out there, but also because eating is such an important part of understanding and appreciating the cultures of the places we visit. Here are some tempting foods from my travels.

Delicious oysters in Brussels.

Paella in Madrid, Spain.

Langostinos in Fortaleza, Brazil.

Sinful strawberry dessert in Brazil.
