Quiz Night at the Irish Bar

So there is this bar... it's an Irish Bar - called Michael Collins I believe and it's a few blocks from my house right in front of Sagrada Familia. Every Tuesday night they have a quiz of 4 rounds, 10 questions done in English and Spanish of various kinds of trivia about all over the world (mostly Europe and S. America) and so I've gone the last 2 weeks in a row now. Last week I did really well! Well.... there was this guy who joined our team and he actually helped a lot hahah but we won a bottle of Cava for being 7th! This week? Not so well. I think the most we scored was 5/10 in one round.... terrible!!!! But it's a fun thing to do and for 2.5E your chances of winning some type of alcohol are actually pretty good. One day I want to eat dinner there, the sandwiches and "chips" look amazing! Also everyone who works there is ACTUALLY Irish, so you get to hear some great accents and really amusing sayings such as "a poke of the yellow" - a pint of beer ahahha!

Today I have my Spanish class. I did some studying of the things we covered last week and I hope that today I won't be the stupid one. I'll try to be more confident. Other than that I was pretty bad and didn't do a lot of studying today but tomorrow will be a much better day!

So I'm writing partly to ask a favor, because I'm trying to improve my diet because I notice that I'm not feeling so great lately and I think what I'm eating is a lot of the problem. So once again I am going to stop eating most wheat (not gluten - just wheat), cut my sugar by about 1/2 and pretty much no dairy except for chocolate once a week! It's not too hard, but the only thing is that this country is SO reliant on bread for everything! They are truly a culture of croissants for breakfast and bocadillos (baguette sandwiches) for lunch. So if anyone has some ideas for good easy wheat free lunches/dinners/even breakfasts! Please leave me a comment or send me an email (Aunt L, you will be especially good at this one! Baking recipes are also greatly appreciated, I know you do that too!).

Alright, 2 posts in 2 days, that's it. Don't everyone go crazy with the Black Friday shopping! ESPECIALLY you papa, jeez ;)
