Just when I thought I was out of the woods with the food situation......they threw me a curve ball!!! I was online talking to Sammy and my dad come and asked if I would like an "aperitivo" (appetizer). This is the exact same thing he asked me before he gave me BLOOD SAUSAGE!!! So obviously I was walking into the kitchen a little apprehensive. I looked at the plate on the counter and it had bread with what looked like butter on it. So I thought to myself "well this doesn't look too bad!".........THEN..........THEY PULLED THE JAR OF ANCHOVIES OUT OF THE FRIDGE....... so they wrapped one anchovy up on each piece of bread and scarfed them down! I told them I was scared to try it and that I probably wouldn't like it (I'm not a HUGE fan of fish). My mom grabbed a stack of napkins and set them in front of me. She told me if I didn't like it then I could spit it out. I told my family that I didn't want them to watch while I tried it....so of course i took a bite.....and it was the most disgusting thing I have ever tasted!!! Definitely not like uncle Tod's fish AT ALL!!!! It was sooooo fishy tasting and still had scales on it that I could feel.....So it went right into the napkin and into the garbage :) I think I actually preferred the blood sausage over this, but I chased the taste down with a nice, cold cerveza!!!!! Our normal dinner course consisted of a chicken patty covered in cheese. That was really good! Why can't the food be like that all the time?!?!?!?
Also, I need to apologize for all the mistakes in my previous post :( Mother Theresa was not to happy about it :) Good thing my major is Spanish and not English :)
Have a great night everyone :)
