The only thing I brought home from my first trip to Spain was an after-shave drenched love letter and the biggest can of Pimenton (smoked paprika) I could fit in my backpack. I still have the can that held the Pimenton. It’s long since been empty of spice, but safe inside is the first, last and only love letter I received from my Spanish admirer. The scent of the after-shave has been replaced with a smokey memory.

BACKSTORY: Geoffrey doesn’t like anyone to know the actual spelling of his name, and prefers the less bourgeois “Jeff” (his pedigree determined years ago in a wealthy Chicago suburb). Jeff’s great grandfather, grandfather and father all held seats on the Chicago Board of Exchange and were not pleased when he decided to apply to Agriculture School at The University of Illinois (a state school). Jillian (Jeff’s young wife) studied art at a lesser known art school in the Mid-West where she met Jeff at a summer party in Saugatuck, MI. When everyone else was wearing notable designers, Jillian arrived at the party wearing a simple white cotton sheath with a small noticeable tear at the hem.
