The last few days, I've been soo hungry!

I never thought it would come...the day that I actually felt hunger before eating. But alas, a miracle, I have had a crazy appetite lately and a stomach recovering enough to act on it. So last night, I walked a lot and came home for dinner. After enjoying the soup and brocolli, I asked for some cheese. "Oh COOURSE," mi señora replied, her voice filled with excitment and enthusiasm. She was SOO pleased. Another chance to do her job, feed. She pulled out pechuga de pavo también. Why not? Cuando estás en España And I cut myself a healthy slice of wheat AND white bread, bathing them in extra virgen olive oil. Tonight, yes. I'll have the turkey too. This is one of my last nights in Spain, AND I'M HUNGRY (most important detail) so I decided to really take advantage and savor the things I will not have at home. I cannot wait to control my own diet, but there are great things here too. Just sniffing the soft, fresh bread... And soaking up the olive oil in my mouth...then skin and hair. I really am getting to know how a familia sevillana eats and lives. That's what I wanted; an authentic spanish experience. And that's what I got. Muy fuerte a veces (demasiado), pero....está terminando ya, pue'...Very strong at times (too much so), but...it's coming to an end very soon, soo...

I am sniffing the roses alright....Nice tranquilo mornings with spanish television that won't be available to me very soon. But, I did just learn today that with the flat screen tv my mom and Deke bought, there are lots of spanish channels with HD! hoorrayy! And I'm pumped for my telenovelas latinoamericanos.
