Tie dogs with Sausages

In Spain when somebody is rich and wants to show off we say that they “tie their dogs with sausages”. This “dicho” or saying originated in the town of Candelario, near Béjar, Salamanca and is one of my favorite sayings for its long and illustrious history that links it to the Prado Museum and the Spanish King Charles IV. #Spainfromhome #Españadesdecasa#InstitutoCervantes (drawing by Miguel Angel Valencia Rivera)

En España cuando alguien es rico y quiere aparentarlo decimos que “ata los perros con longanizas”. Este dicho es originario del pueblo de Candelario, cerca de Béjar, Salamanca y es uno de mis dichos favoritos, por su larga e ilustre historia que lo conecta con el Museo de Prado y el Rey Carlos V. #Spainfromhome #Españadesdecasa #InstitutoCervantes (dibujo de Miguel Angel Valencia Rivera)
