okay
let me explain something
i would definetly give up MY LIFE to have access to this food FOREVER.
so, per cena ieri, ho mangiato una stew di pomodori, formaggi e uove. anche, fresh prosciutto e salami e pane e fresh melone con miele.
e oggi, per cena, ho mangiato pasta con meat sauce e zucchino con suoi fiori sauteed in olio con pane e ricotta e per dolce, un buon pudding-creme brulee type thing which was too damn good.
but its really lonely here. no one speaks english, save a family from palatine il who came by today and i acted as translator, which was horrendously difficult bc one of the daughters speaks way too fast.
also, i will walk you through my first day
7 am: wake up and go back to sleep
8:30 am: wake up and realize that i was supposed to be up 30 min ago
8:45: walk to cheese making thing and promptly get sheep poop all over the floor via my shoes
9:00: fully outfitted with new shoes, an apron, and a hat.
9-12: clean cheese container after cheese container. if im not the best damn cheese container cleaner by the time i get out of here, ill be pissed
12-1: help make ricotta, which im not very good at. veloce and then piano, not piano e veloce
1-3: help with lunch, read, eat
3-7: say im going for a walk, but actually fall asleep by the pool while reading. crap.
7-11: help make dinner, read, eat dinner, do dishes, do more dishes, do even more dishes, read, watch tv, and show pics of my family to giovanna e natalie.
11-now (mezzanote): be on computer.
okay, i need to go bc im exhausted. also, i have an awful cough bc EVERYONE here smokes and EVERYONE smokes INSIDE THE HOUSE.
gah! also, its really effin cold at night, so if someone wants to send me a blanket, thatd be much appreciated.
i dont have a way to upload my pics, so ill steal them from their computer.
voila!
love,
abby
I know you’re in Italy, but you should put less italian in your posts. It makes them harder to read.
Miss you!
Abbyy! lo siento de que I didn’t pack you warmer clothes! but it sounds like you are having quite a fun time. i love you so! i almost invited you to our bouldering competition yesterday, but alas, you were not here. anyway, enjoy your ricotta and sheep poopses. im sure you’ll watch your step next time
te amo y te extrano mucho! (y trateria de escribir eso en italiano para te, pero todavia no hablo italiano, y entonces, escribi un poquito en espanol para que pones loca!)
bella! its okay, its very hot here now and i am wearing too many clothes as it is!
i love you too and guess what! theres another wwoofer here from the french part of switzerland, but she doesnt know raphael. i am enjoying my ricotta and if i dont have it on a regular basis when i come home, i dont know what ill do!!
i think you said °i tried to write in italian for you, but i dont speak italian, so you need to write in spanish for something…° soooo
HOLA.
