I have come to the realization that while walking the streets of Sevilla each day, I witness something notable.
Today's experience:
Old woman walking dog wearing diaper. The dog was in the diaper, not the woman.
Bad Thing
Yesterday, the city smelled like pee. It rained a bit off and on, so the streets were wet. I subconsciously mixed these two thoughts and became nervous walking around because I thought that all of the puddles were pee.
Necessary Thing
My final exam for my intensive grammar class is tomorrow afternoon.
Exciting Thing
I'm going to a bull fight tomorrow. I anticipate this to be difficult to watch, but it's a dying art and I believe that I personally need to experience this in my lifetime.
Tasty Thing
Dinner tonight. Green beans (really more like pea pods...I think they were cooked in olive oil and garlic, but I could be wrong). Something similar to potato salad (potatoes, tuna, hard-boiled egg, olive oil-vinegar type dressing, rather than mayo). Bread. A pudding cup with a cookie in it (vanilla/cinnamon flavored. It was flan in pudding form...only cinnamon instead of caramel flavored...Pepe licked out the pudding I didn't eat).
Missed Thing
American pizza. After a 10 minute discussion about pizza in class yesterday, my teacher and our entire class concluded that pizza tastes best in the United States. After this discussion, everyone in my class craved pizza. At this point in time, I believe the first meal I want when I get back is Chicago-style deep dish pizza.
Sleepy Thing
Me.
This post was highly entertaining. Hope the exam went well and I anticipate a post about the bull fight.
ReplyDeleteI love the title Que Guay! I'd never learned the word before studying in Sevilla. We were so amused with it and two other words that we'd never heard of before that I believe meant the same thing.... I've always considered them to mean cute but I'm not sure if I'm right on that. Soon it became that all three words of these words had to be used together. Que chule - chachi - guay! (not sure on the spelling) If you are planning to travel at all to Italy you've got to try pizza from Napoli. The woman who wrote Eat, Pray, Love raves about it. We have a Neopolitan pizza place called Punch here modeled after the pizza places in Napoli and it's AMAZING! Totally not going to take the place in your heart for the Chicago style but I'll bet it you'll love it just the same!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE hearing about what you're eating! Such fun combinations ... and I've got potatos that I needed to do something with.... now I've got a plan!
Stay out of the puddles!
