I am starting to feel a little more Spanish everyday. A couple of days ago, I went to the
mercado central, or the central market, to buy my produce, bread and ham. Yes, I am now one of those people who buys a fresh baguette every other day to have with my meals and I stood in line at a
jamonería, or a ham shop, to have the butcher slice me off pieces of
jamón serrano and a chunk of cheese
.

The market is really, really nice. It's big, bright, clean and full of people. You can buy anything there from fruits, veggies, meat, and when I say meat, I mean every part of the animal, bread, pastries, fish, cheese, eggs, olives and pretty much anything fresh. I now know where I will be going for all of my fresh food because it's cheaper than the supermarkets, probably more local and better quality.
