Tapas

Last night I went with a few girls to a spanish tapas restaurant.  One found an amazing deal online, so we took advantage of it.  £10 was still a lot, but for the amount of food we got, it was great. The restaurant itself was really fun and well decorated.  It's nice to be at an actual restaurant instead of a seedy fish and chips place!  Sophie and I ordered the sangria, yum.  





Then the food arrived.  This picture shows like 4 of my 6 dishes.  They were:

- Albóndigas (meatballs)
- Croquetas de Pollo (chicken nugget type balls that were my absolute favorite)
- Tortilla Española (Spanish omelette)
- Paella del Día (Chicken and prawn paella)
- Patatas Bravas (fried potatoes)
- Spanish ciabatta garlic bread


Pretty presentation!

The walk home was refreshing, and it's starting to get a bit warmer, so I enjoyed it.  Leeds is so pretty at night.  



Today has been a quite pleasant one so far.  I had class at 9, then did some school work.  Then I met up with a girl from Albuquerque who's at Leeds Uni this semester.  It was sunny and warm today, so I wore a bright yellow dress (Clara) to embrace it.  The English look so weird when it is sunny!  They still wear heavy black and grey, so I stood out like a bright beaming ray of sunshine ;)   We had yummy tea and sweets and just enjoyed being outside and talking about green chili.  Next up, group project (boo) and dinner with the flatmates!  

Miss you guys and want to hear from you!
