What's Cooking Good Looking?

It finally happened....my dream come true.....what I've been waiting for since my first taste of paella.....

COOKING LESSONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Part of my BC program includes getting cooking lessons from one of the BC site coordinators in Madrid, Paloma.  In small groups, we went to her house and she taught us how to make paella, tortilla española, and flan. My love of food is no secret (my dad has made comments about how I talk about food more than anything else on social media....lol) so this day was pretty much the coolest ever.

Paloma did most of the cooking and we helped out here and there, but luckily, I learned that making each of those dishes is quite easy.
**Again, roommates - prepare yourself for some authentic Spanish food next semester :)
**Parents/family - I'll be bringing some sort of Spanish food to Christmas this year, so get ready for that! :)

All in all, the meal was a definite success and I am so pumped for when I'm back home and I can spread the amazingness of Spanish food to everyone back in the States! I'll probably butcher some stuff and it may come out weird the first few times, but it'll be worth it because Spanish food is just so good and needs to be shared.
