Psychologists and psychiatrists have found that fatter people are happier than thinner people. I am living proof of that claim. I’ve definitely softened up quite a bit since being here (just see my previous post and you’ll know why), but I’ve never been happier!!   

{side note, but figured it was appropriate: was typing this when she called us for lunch….we had cooked cauliflower with egg today. I never thought I would say Iiked cauliflower, but it was soo good! Also, I finally perfected my fruit peeling and when I said mira! to my senora she looked so proud and said muy bien! muy bien!}

But even more so that just being happy, I’m so content - so satisfied with life right now. The other night, I remember I was going to sleep and literally had a huge smile on my face. It was probably a combination of things - the wine, the delicious chocolate pastry, the cute waiter who made us flowers out of napkins - but I keep remembering that I am in Spain. I am in Spain! It still amazes me every time.
