Re: (...)
Well my daughter got her official notice. So for her junior year of college she will be at Granada Spain University. She has taken spanish classes since 6th grade and fell in love with the language, so much so, it became her second major.
As much as I hate her going that far I am so proud of her
She worked her tail off to get all her classes lined up and completed with honors. I only wish we could go visit her while she's there but unfortunately that's way out of our price range.
What fun to live in Europe for a year. Anyone been to Granada that has any tips or tricks or hotspots to check out?

Oh Denise - I'm proud right along with you!!! How exciting and how thrilled she must be. Oh, Spain!!! Oh, the food!!!
You only live once . . . but if you do it right once should be enough!
Oh, that is just wonderful!! Congratulations to Laura for working so hard. Never been to Spain (but I kinda like the music) - can you imagine the photos that she is going to be sending back to you!!

Very exciting news, Denise! You must be so proud and rightly so. What an incredible experience to be able to spend a year in Spain.

How wonderful, but I know you will miss her! My daughter Erica's best friend spent a semester in Spain, I will ask her for some advice.

If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?
