Me and Max

By grete

Recipe for a Perfect Day.........

- Getting up early (well, early for me...) to do some yoga while hubby is still in bed...
- Collected after breakfast by boy now man now Italian man driving like a mad man...
- Sitting in back seat with Italian girl sweet as honey...
- Driving into Italian countryside or possibly film set of The English Patient...
- Wine, wine, wine... Not used to this, at least not in the middle of the day, before lunch...
- Mmmmmmmm....white wine, red wine, rosé, sparkling, half sparkling, still, fresh, reserva... (oh, my goodness...!)
- Driving further into the film set, now with slightly red cheeks, trying not to giggle (The giggle gives you away, says hubby) (You could have spat it out, says son)
- Cheese, cheese, cheese, cured meat in various tastes and sizes. Water...
- Watching Norwegian boy and Italian Girl dancing waltz to imaginary music by village square...
- Walking into film set...
- Trying to pronounce library in Italian...(biblioteca) (which I must admit sounds very much like Norwegian, bibliotek) (trying to let the vowels linger in my mouth, much like I had tried to let the wine linger...) (just looooove the Italian long vowels...)
- Clicking away with my camera, Italian girl willing to smile every single time...(amazing...)
- Back in rented flat, flicking through the clicking done earlier...
- Skyping with Boy 2, then Boy 1 plus his wife... (all well...)
- Wondering whether to chose Italian girl as sophisticated diva or giggly schoolgirl...(Guess which was my choice...)


And then tomorrow comes...
