Some toast and some Twinings. I’m sick today. Oddly enough, toast and tea is more than I’d eat for lunch if I’d gone to school today, so I’m guessing that that is some sort of bonus. But I still have to read a stack of Seneca, so maybe not. ---

A can of tuna and a dollop of spicy mayo with high fiber crackers (7 grams per piece and I have 2-ish) plus a third of a pound of roasted Brussels sprouts. And I just finally had time to finish off the apple I brought. ---

A pincho which was a sandwich of Spanish ham on _pamtomaca_ (pà amb tomàquet, bread with tomato). The bread was a bun of romano about the size of a spread hand… uhm… of a truck driver’s spread hand, I have tiny hands. 1.50€ And a soda from the machine (0.40€ and 33cc). A soda from the tapas bar would be 20cc and 1.60€ - no way José! ---
