Today was a get back on your bike day and sort yourself out. So I did just that…got back on the bike for another double circumnavigation which send my legs into orbit for most of the day but what the heck. So instead of walking the wall today I walked the town. I found a lovely little garden to read my book in. The sun was back into full form and blazing away so I sat in a piazza and had a gelati. I did a whole lot of shopping and even bought a little ‘stick thing’ …just a very cheap, crappy one so we’ll see how it goes but it inspired me to stock up on veggies with a view to making some soups.
Then I decided it was time to get brave Sue out of her box and I took myself off to find an Italian School. I have booked in to start next Monday for 2 weeks, a 2 week break and then another 2 weeks. I’m utterly terrified!!! Far more than last time in Bologna when I didn’t know what I was getting myself in for. This time I know positively that I’m doomed to frustration, failure and embarrassment!!! After I left there I went to some crappy church….what the hell does that say???
I then came home, had a 5pm lunch of cheese and bread and then started chopping up a mountain of veggies, as I said with a view to soups!! I was cooking up leeks and thought damn, no white wine but then I had the inspired thought that I would use a splash (or 2, or 3, or 4) of Grappa…I’ll let you know if it was inspired or just me in the kitchen making a shit mess.
Ciao ragazzi
