Fruit and parks

So this afternoon as I was attempting a siesta (in reality, messing around on the internet), I heard a knock on the door and then someone yelling, "FRUTA!"

"Odd," I thought, assuming I had misheard, but went to answer the door anyway since nobody else was around. However, when I opened the door I saw nothing but two giant boxes stacked right on the doormat. They were indeed full of assorted fruits and vegetables.



Apparently produce in Spain is delivered right to your doorstep by the fruit fairy.



In other news, I have successfully completed my first week of classes! They are all mostly interesting and I like my professors. When I'm not in class I just wander everywhere. On a particularly nice day a friend and I went to the Parque de Berlin, which is just a few blocks away from campus, and took some pictures of some trees.



I can't wait for it to get warmer and more sunny - apparently in the spring and summer, everyone flocks to the parks and lies in the sun for hours on the weekends. (I know what you're thinking, of course I will lie in the shade.)



And, in a completely unrelated public service announcement, if you gave up on Project Runway after last season's epic disaster, do not despair! This new season is back in New York (wonderful), the judges we know and love have resurfaced, the show obviously hired someone new to come up with interesting challenges, and Lifetime actually found some designers with talent. I am very optimistic - if you aren't watching, you should be.
