Barberry Rice and Saffron Chicken

I learned to make this delicious Persian Dish over the weekend, and I thought I would try out for my family. It was finger licking good~
I was surprised it came out oh so tasty for my first time.
There weren't even left overs..
Yummie~

Me and My Lauren <3

I've had fun hanging out with my baby since I got home. We've gone out to eat, a little shopping, and just hanging out together.. I sure missed her, and I love being home with her.

Coming Home to TEXAS!!

We arrived at the airport and as usual I had to move some of my things into Robyn's bag because I went over the weight limit.
I got to the Madrid airport about 7 or 8 am, can't remember; I waited until 4:35pm to leave. Why??? don't know.. Just bought my ticket to leave that late...
Here are the pictures of me coming home....... FINALLY!
So happy :)

Last day in Spain

We celebrated at the Negra Flor (a local bar) in Valladolid, and from there to Sotobanco ( a discoteca). I decided not to sleep that night since I had to be at the bus station in Valladolid at 4:00 am. I'm glad I didn't, b/c I was ready and on time by 3:45. Anyway, we left Valladolid, and took a 2.5 hour bus ride to Madrid. We were there with plenty of time to spare!
It was nice to hang out with everyone before leaving.. I met some great people, and made great friendships.. Here are some pictures from the night.

PARIS WAS A BLAST!!!

Hello!!! I know, I know, I say the same thing about all the places I've been to since being here in Europe. Seriously though, Paris was AMAZING! I really enjoyed seeing my cousin who I hadn't seen in 8 years!
Marieth! I had a blast... You are the best!
(The people in Paris are much nicer than here in Spain... I hate to say that, because I've heard terrible things about Paris)
Apparently people in Paris are gone since it's "HOLIDAY" (vacation)
Anyway... Hope you enjoy the pics.

Paris!

So, I'm a little nervous about traveling to Paris alone. I'm scared of getting lost especially since I cannot speak a lick of French.
I leave today and will be back on Thursday. (YAY!!) then off to Texas on Saturday. I thought this week would never come. I'm extremely excited about getting my ass home to TX!!!

Santander, Spain

I went to Santander this weekend and it was so cool... The water was freeeeezing cold.. Maybe because we're close to the Arctic?? I went in for 2 seconds and couldn't bear it.... It was a really nice little town. Glad I went. We ate a wonderful restaurant, the food was exquisite, and not too expensive....Here are some pictures from the trip.
