Things I miss from home:

-Mis padres, always :)
-My dogs! All of the them—Jazzi for the snuggling, Riley for her cuteness, and Sandy for her sweetness. 
-Mi familia.  Duh.
-Oatmeal (Seriously. It’s a good breakfast food.)
-Reese’s (WHY don't they understand peanut butter here??)
-dollars (Euros are expensive!)
-Running with the team
-peanut butter No more now that I found it!
-mom’s meals (really I do! All those vegetables and sauces and salads and soups that I can’t/don’t know how to make...yummm)
-Dinner with the fam (Now I eat dinner in my room, or with my landlady.  How sad.)
-family weekends.  Being a tourist would be even better if I was being a tourist with my family!
-Pancakes! Mmmmm.
-Cookies and brownies. (A candy bar is NOT the same thing as a well-baked brownie!)
-Tori's homemade biscuits...especially when she makes them snowman-shaped in the middle of the summer just because she can.
-Trees and other green things.  They just don’t have that in Barcelona…
-My car!  (I’ve used the metro maybe three times, other than that, its all been walking.)
-Recycling.  I think they do that here, but I am still a little unclear on how to do that, so the plastic bottles are slowly accumulating in my room…)
-The little used bookstore near the house.  (I love that place.  It’s so cheap, and well organized and its got all the cool old books in there.  The bookstores here aren’t like that at all. Plus, the books have the words going the wrong way on the spines!)
-Brad’s fish obsession.  Hey, it’s great to watch!
-Walking in the woods.  Especially with my dad. 
-Biking!  Its sooo much faster than walking.
-Adam’s magic shows…
-Granola!  I know they have it here, but I can’t seem to find it. 
-My apartment.  And my roommate!
-Sunday football…haha, the REAL football.
-The team!!! Especially Michaela's awesome ideas.

Hmm.  Basically, I miss food and people…
