Visto che, dopo quasi quattro anni di blog, ci siamo affezionati parecchio, abbiamo deciso di regalarci il dominio &lt;a href="http://www.sacchibelli.it"&gt;http://www.sacchibelli.it&lt;/a&gt; e migrare su &lt;a href="http://www.wordpress.com"&gt;wordpress&lt;/a&gt;. Siamo ancora in fase un po' "pasticciona" nel cercare di configurare al meglio &lt;a href="http://www.wordpress.com"&gt;wordpress&lt;/a&gt;, ma speriamo che il blog continui  a piacervi. &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;D'ora in avanti gli aggiornamenti saranno visibili solo su &lt;a href="http://www.sacchibelli.it"&gt;http://www.sacchibelli.it&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;hr/&gt;Today is an important day for our blog. After almost 4 years of blogging we decide to buy a domain (&lt;a href="http://www.sacchibelli.it"&gt;http://www.sacchibelli.it&lt;/a&gt;) and to move from blogger to &lt;a href="http://www.wordpress.com"&gt;wordpress&lt;/a&gt;. Although we are still learning things about &lt;a href="http://www.wordpress.com"&gt;wordpress&lt;/a&gt;, we hope that you will enjoy our blog as it happened in the past. &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Please, remember to look at &lt;a href="http://www.sacchibelli.it"&gt;http://www.sacchibelli.it&lt;/a&gt; for new posts&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1468915093146351815?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1468915093146351815/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1468915093146351815' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1468915093146351815'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1468915093146351815'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/10/trasloco.html' title='Trasloco'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TLm_BJ7CsaI/AAAAAAAAByI/5NCOu4tXKjc/s72-c/trasloco.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1929350125719340507</id><published>2010-10-09T20:31:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-10-09T20:46:28.382+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Cinque anni dopo...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TLDF8YZjsQI/AAAAAAAAByA/KSATKXfToFA/s1600/enrico_silvia_paella.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TLDF8YZjsQI/AAAAAAAAByA/KSATKXfToFA/s320/enrico_silvia_paella.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5526134383916069122" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Sono passati cinque anni dall'8 ottobre 2005, una data per noi importante. Cinque anni decisamente speciali, belli e intensi. E anche se quest'anno e' stato tanto difficile e funestato dalla tragedia che ci ha colpito, sia io che Silvia ci sentiamo sempre piu' legati l'un l'altra. Ieri, per la prima volta, abbiamo festeggiato il nostro anniversario. Ci siamo goduti un'ottima paella al ristorante spagnolo &lt;a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=93270829791"&gt;"Sangria Tapas y Allegria"&lt;/a&gt;.

Oggi pero' ci abbiamo riprovato seguendo una ricetta diversa (tratta da &lt;a href="http://www.ibs.it/code/9788889711637/verbert-sigrid/easyfinger.html"&gt;Easyfinger&lt;/a&gt; di Sigrid Verbert (alias &lt;a href="www.ilcavolettodibruxelles.it"&gt;Il Cavoletto di Bruxelles&lt;/a&gt;). Ovviamente abbiamo optato per un condimento a base di prosciutto cotto e gorgonzola (uno dei nostri preferiti) e come potete vedere dalle foto, il risultato e' stato piu' che decoroso.... Ovviamente dovete un po' fidarvi, visto che le uniche due pizze fatte sono state mangiate da noi stessi....&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TKttol9SRmI/AAAAAAAABxw/e2ttw9zvCKQ/s1600/home_made_pizza2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TKttol9SRmI/AAAAAAAABxw/e2ttw9zvCKQ/s320/home_made_pizza2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524629912051402338" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Two years ago we posted our home-made pizza (see &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/08/sacchibellis-pizza.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;) but today we repeated the experiment following a new recipe found in &lt;a href="http://www.ibs.it/code/9788889711637/verbert-sigrid/easyfinger.html"&gt;Easyfinger&lt;/a&gt; a nice book from Sigrid Verbert (alias &lt;a href="www.ilcavolettodibruxelles.it"&gt;Il Cavoletto di Bruxelles&lt;/a&gt;).

Qui dai sacchibelli in effetti ne alberga una discreta famigliola. Da quando pero' Silvia ha scoperto la passione, come passatempo, di realizzarne con le proprie mani, a maglia o all'uncinetto, l'allegra combricola sta moltiplicandosi. L'ultima arrivata e' Grenny, la rana, ma nella foto di gruppo ci sono "quasi" tutti i piccoli capolavori di Silvia. Che dire, sono decisamente stupendi.&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TKh-IjdOn5I/AAAAAAAABxY/FwcWOQ3XX8o/s1600/group.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TKh-IjdOn5I/AAAAAAAABxY/FwcWOQ3XX8o/s320/group.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523803628391800722" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Here at sacchibelli's it is not impossible to see some peluche to appear within the pictures we published in our blog. We have a nice family of "peluches" living with us, and this family is quickly growing thanks to Silvia's passion for knitting (not only) animals. The newest is this lovely frog, but in the second picture you can admire "almost" all the group.

La pizza non poteva mancare, e cosi' eccoci ritratti (chi in bella posa, chi in posa un po' piu' innaturale) in questa foto, tutti piuttosto soddisfatti per l'ottima pizza mangiata alla &lt;a href="http://www.letretorrirestaurant.com/"&gt;Pizzeria Tre Torri&lt;/a&gt;. Forza Fede, resisti ancora pochi mesi ai menu' tedeschi e poi da dicembre, col tuo rientro definitivo in Italia, la buona pizza potra' tornare un elemento basilare della dieta... Grazie a tutti per la bellissima serata.&lt;hr&gt;Last Thursday our friend Federica has been in Pavia (she usually lives in Germany now, but starting from December she will definitively come back here) and this was a good opportunity to spend a nice evening with her and whith a bunch of friends. Here you can see the group picture and with the exception of Enrico, everyone looks pretty normal and happy because of the great pizza we had at &lt;a href="http://www.letretorrirestaurant.com/"&gt;Pizzeria Tre Torri&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-2915150388144063366?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/2915150388144063366/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=2915150388144063366' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2915150388144063366'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2915150388144063366'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/09/pizza-di-gruppo-per-la-fede.html' title='Pizza di gruppo per la Fede'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TKTbn7Io7vI/AAAAAAAABxQ/uJHwSvxbvrc/s72-c/pizza_fede_gruppo.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-7967057200110459028</id><published>2010-09-26T21:22:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2010-09-26T21:28:08.676+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='casa'/><title type='text'>Nuove luci</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJ-sxOFqE3I/AAAAAAAABxI/XQE3B3_aY3g/s1600/nuovo_lampadario.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJ-sxOFqE3I/AAAAAAAABxI/XQE3B3_aY3g/s320/nuovo_lampadario.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521321629774910322" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Siamo nella nuova casa ormai da tre anni e mezzo. Ed e' cosi' giunto il momento di sostituire alcuni lampadari dichiarati "provvisori" in fase di insediamento. Quello della sala, di carta, che potete vedere in &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2007/04/nuova-casa-operativa.html"&gt;questo post&lt;/a&gt; in effetti non era particolarmente bello. Siamo cosi' lieti di mostrare, in anteprima, una foto della nostra sala col nostro nuovo lampadario. Un po' strano forse, ma a noi piace parecchio. E tutto sommato e' questo che importa.&lt;hr&gt;We moved in this house roughly three years and a half ago. It is thus time to substitute the "provisional" chandelier we installed in our living room and that you see in this  &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2007/04/nuova-casa-operativa.html"&gt;post&lt;/a&gt;.

Entrambe vengono dichiarate riciclabili, ma sulle campane della raccolta differenziata (almeno qui a Pavia) vengono citati solo vetro e alluminio.

Da pavesi doc e quasi doc era un po' lacunoso, da parte nostra, che conoscessimo cosi' poco i musei dell'Universita' stessa. La colpa e' senz'altro nostra, ma certo non tutti i musei che Pavia offre sono ben pubblicizzati. Questo &lt;a href="http://www.paviamusei.it/"&gt;sito&lt;/a&gt; invece raccoglie un po' di utili informazioni e, approfittando anche di iniziative speciali con apertura dei musei anche in certi weekend, abbiamo di recente visitato il &lt;a href="http://www.paviamusei.it/muniversita4.html"&gt;Museo di Storia Naturale&lt;/a&gt;, davvero straordinario ma penalizzato da una location davvero disastrosa, e il &lt;a href="http://www.paviamusei.it/muniversita5.html"&gt;Museo di Tecnica Elettrica&lt;/a&gt;, davvero interessante. Considerando che il celebre &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alessandro_Volta"&gt;Alessandro Volta&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazzaro_Spallanzani"&gt;Lazzaro Spallanzani&lt;/a&gt;hanno insegnato nella nostra Universita', direi che questi musei sono un riconoscimento piu' che doveroso.&lt;hr&gt;Even if there is not a lot of advertising, Pavia has some very interisting musuem. At &lt;a href="http://www.paviamusei.it/"&gt;this web site&lt;/a&gt; you can find some useful information about them. In the last month we visited two of them: "Natural History Museum" and "Electricity Museum" exploiting free entrance during some special events. Them both are really beautiful and considering that &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alessandro_Volta"&gt;Alessandro Volta&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazzaro_Spallanzani"&gt;Lazzaro Spallanzani&lt;/a&gt; taught in our University, these museums are a good way to remember them.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-3208350069607635116?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/3208350069607635116/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=3208350069607635116' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3208350069607635116'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3208350069607635116'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/09/musei-pavesi.html' title='Musei pavesi'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJ-ju3uaYLI/AAAAAAAABw4/f9YusuYKLAY/s72-c/tecnica_elettrica.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-2209588257298154417</id><published>2010-09-26T20:20:00.006+01:00</published><updated>2010-09-26T21:38:49.695+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bike'/><title type='text'>Giungla ciclabile</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJ-eoKpdRRI/AAAAAAAABww/awa879dXlX4/s1600/DSC01001.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJ-eoKpdRRI/AAAAAAAABww/awa879dXlX4/s320/DSC01001.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521306081069712658" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ci siamo spesso lamentati dello stato "penoso" in cui versa la viabilita' ciclistica pavese. Nulla e' cambiato, ovviamente, ma anzi si lascia che il degrado progressivamente si porti via il poco di ciclabile che avevamo. Cosi', pur non pretendendo di avere delle piste ciclabili lisce come tavoli da bigliardo, sarebbe carino che non ci fossero pericolose voragini e dissestamenti. L'altro giorno, percorrendo la pista ciclabile che costeggia gli istituti universitari del Cravino, ho constatato che lo stato di manutenzione era cosi' accurato che i nostri amministratori erano riusciti a far crescere anche l'erba dall'asfalto...&lt;hr&gt;We often denounced how critical it to ride a bicycle in Pavia. Bikes could be the solution to many issues related to traffic and so on, but the few bike paths we have are mutually disconnected, dangerous and their maintenance is disastrous. Few days ago, riding to the new swimming pool close to the university, I noted that a kind of miracle was happening: grass was naturally growing from the asphalt of the bike path....&lt;br \&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Update: today I observed that some maintenance to the "growing jungle" has been done. However the general situation of the bike paths here in Pavia doesn't change at all&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-2209588257298154417?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/2209588257298154417/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=2209588257298154417' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2209588257298154417'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2209588257298154417'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/09/giungla-ciclabile.html' title='Giungla ciclabile'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJ-eoKpdRRI/AAAAAAAABww/awa879dXlX4/s72-c/DSC01001.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-4297861396345627725</id><published>2010-09-26T20:13:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-09-26T21:36:22.467+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Cena coi Repox</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJ-cc6g23SI/AAAAAAAABwo/eC_uLxtwzyk/s1600/repox_family_2010.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJ-cc6g23SI/AAAAAAAABwo/eC_uLxtwzyk/s320/repox_family_2010.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521303688736857378" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Matteo, Laura (e Emma) sono nostri cari amici che ci sono stati particolarmente vicini in questi mesi cosi' particolari.

Questa torta marmorizzata invece, pur partendo da una ricetta di Silvia, e' stata interamente preparata da Enrico. Certo, non e' un dolce complicatissimo da preparare, ma spero venga apprezzato lo sforzo. E chi l'ha assaggiata mi pare fosse piuttosto soddisfatto.&lt;hr&gt;As you know we posted here many cakes. They have been made by Silvia and usually they are delicious. However, the cake you see in the picture, has a peculiarity that makes it unique: it has been completely prepared by the sacchibelli male component (following a recipe provided by Silvia). And the result was good enough, according to the lucky people that tasted it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-4739621836827945875?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/4739621836827945875/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=4739621836827945875' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4739621836827945875'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4739621836827945875'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/09/torta-marmorizzata.html' title='Torta marmorizzata'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJZVoJFxf_I/AAAAAAAABwg/zBxtzrbqlBg/s72-c/torta_marmorizzata_enrico.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-4879683738236487511</id><published>2010-09-19T19:00:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-09-19T19:18:35.251+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='flowers'/><title type='text'>Gerani speciali</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJZT8YmuG_I/AAAAAAAABwY/5JyrBf7XA5A/s1600/gerani_enrico.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJZT8YmuG_I/AAAAAAAABwY/5JyrBf7XA5A/s320/gerani_enrico.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5518690690251234290" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;L'estate ormai se ne sta andando e con essa se ne andranno molti dei bei fiori che hanno adornato i balconi di casa sacchibelli.

L'abbiamo fotografata &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/08/uno-strano-ospite.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/09/la-mantide-gia-era-venuta-trovarci-vedi.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/volte-ritornano.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;. Cosi' quando abbiamo visto planare questa simpatica cavalletta sui nostri ciclamini, e' venuto spontaneo pensare che abbia saputo dalla nostra amica mantide che qui poteva trovare un approdo sicuro. E cosi' e' stato.&lt;hr&gt;As you know there is a mantis that usually stops at our place to relax a little bit. We posted its pictures  &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/08/uno-strano-ospite.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/09/la-mantide-gia-era-venuta-trovarci-vedi.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/volte-ritornano.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. So, when we have seen this nice grasshopper staying on our new cyclamens, we realized that maybr it was following a suggestion from our friend mantis. And probably it was also try to send us greetings from the mantis, but we don't understand its language&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1141036184975156542?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1141036184975156542/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1141036184975156542' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1141036184975156542'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1141036184975156542'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/09/lamico-ritrovato.html' title='L&apos;amico ritrovato'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJZOw3cQQJI/AAAAAAAABwQ/mICUPbwH6A0/s72-c/mantide_ciclamino.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-356603773275685756</id><published>2010-09-19T18:38:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-09-19T19:00:16.957+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bicycle'/><title type='text'>Ladri di biciclette</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJZNOSGXdJI/AAAAAAAABwI/AY6FqXE0MHI/s1600/DSC00999.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TJZNOSGXdJI/AAAAAAAABwI/AY6FqXE0MHI/s320/DSC00999.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5518683301161170066" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Sara' che, essendo ciclisti, una delle paure recondite e' quella di subire il furto della bicicletta (o di parti di essa), fatto sta che sia io che Silvia siamo molto sensibili all'argomento. Cosi' ci si e' stretto il cuore quando abbiamo visto la bici qui fotografata. Certo il lucchetto ha resistito... pero'. La speranza e' che chi ha subito il furto non perda la voglia e il piacere di pedalare.&lt;hr&gt;We both love to ride our bicycles, and one of our fears is that our bicycles can be stolen. So when we have seen the bike you see in the picture, we were very sad thinking to the owner.

Probabilmente stressiamo un po' anche troppo i nostri amici con questa nostra passione per il software libero, tanto che Matteo un caro amico (e uno dei piu' frequenti commentatori di questo blog) ha ben pensato di regalarci un estensore di porte USB a forma di pinguino, per l'appunto il simbolo di linux. Non e' stupendo? Grazie ancora!!! &lt;hr&gt;As you know both Sacchibellis are a little bit "linux" addicted; now we are enjoying &lt;a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynx"&gt;Ubuntu Lucid Lynx&lt;/a&gt; on our home desktop and on our two laptops. And as you can imagine, we are not missing Microsoft OS and softwares in any way. Probably we are stressing too much our friends when we talk about Linux, open source and so on... So few days ago Matteo, a dear friend that use to comment a lot our posts, gave us an amazingly cute gift: a penguin-shaped USB adapter that you can see in the picture. Thanks a lot, we like the penguin :-)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8617540589511086220?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8617540589511086220/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8617540589511086220' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8617540589511086220'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8617540589511086220'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/09/usb-penguin.html' title='USB penguin'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TIy7pX5pu5I/AAAAAAAABwA/DuFAauaxOf8/s72-c/pinguino_usb.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6958720867643174069</id><published>2010-09-05T19:49:00.009+01:00</published><updated>2010-09-05T20:03:54.279+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Mongolfiere</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TIPnmeNnHbI/AAAAAAAABvo/-oT7Seu_fdA/s1600/mongolfiere_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TIPnmeNnHbI/AAAAAAAABvo/-oT7Seu_fdA/s320/mongolfiere_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513505016962817458" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Tra le varie iniziative nell'ambito del &lt;a href="http://www.comune.pv.it/on/Home/FestivaldeiSaperi.html"&gt;festival dei Saperi&lt;/a&gt;, la presenza delle mongolfiere e' stata sicuramente una delle piu' suggestive nonche' originali. Sicneramente non le avevamo mai viste dal vivo e ci hanno stupito per le loro dimensioni (piu' grandi di quanto immaginassimo). Vederle volare sulla nostra citta', tutte colorate e in un cielo fortunatamente azzurro, e' stato davvero un piccolo tocco di magia.&lt;br \&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;P.S.

Among them, the most attractive was the presence of ballons within the city. We never saw ballons in reality and they appeared to us quite big.

In realta' abbiamo pranzato a casa di Silvia, dove la mamma ha preparato un pranzo a dir poco eccezionale. Forse le calorie ingerite sono state piu' delle due tipiche del tic tac, ma a partire dagli antipasti, passando per lo straordinario riso e fagioli e per il brasato con insalata di pomodori e peperoni per poi finire con il budino alla vaniglia.... beh, un pranzo del genere e' veramente da applausi. Grazie davvero!!!&lt;hr&gt;Today we went to &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sartirana_Lomellina"&gt;Sartirana Lomellina&lt;/a&gt; the place where Silvia used to spend her childhood, because there was the famous  &lt;a href="http://www.comune.sartiranalomellina.pv.it/sagra-della-rana.17.e4m"&gt;Sagra della Rana&lt;/a&gt;. We had lunch at Silvia's place, where his mom prepared something delicious. We probably ate too many calories, but everything was amazing, starting from appetizers and ending with vanilla pudding (and without forgetting the rice with beans and the "brasato"). Thanks a lot for the great day.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-2403361037400100547?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/2403361037400100547/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=2403361037400100547' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2403361037400100547'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2403361037400100547'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/09/come-un-tic-tac.html' title='Come un tic tac'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TIPk7ZA6XhI/AAAAAAAABvg/0FQb_oKr5I0/s72-c/sartirana_pranzo.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1859674324820383098</id><published>2010-09-05T19:26:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-09-05T19:32:29.709+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cars'/><title type='text'>De gustibus...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TIPiJzvPwVI/AAAAAAAABvY/m0kHbaLQ3Zo/s1600/DSC00119.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TIPiJzvPwVI/AAAAAAAABvY/m0kHbaLQ3Zo/s320/DSC00119.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513499026966692178" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La premessa e' che ognuno puo' scegliersi il colore dell'auto che piu' gli aggrada.

Paolo, Silvia and I shared a lot of job experiences and now I moved to a different company, but it was Friday night so, no room for job at that time...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8019046603166513988?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8019046603166513988/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8019046603166513988' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8019046603166513988'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8019046603166513988'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/paolo-rosy-e-elisa.html' title='Paolo, Rosy e Elisa'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THjlT8AMYJI/AAAAAAAABuw/SnSU5VDt39A/s72-c/paolo_rosy_elisa_2010.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6252033603598434526</id><published>2010-08-24T07:00:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-08-24T07:29:49.611+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Una cena in buona compagnia</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THNmbfON7YI/AAAAAAAABuo/akGd06r4UaE/s1600/chiara_zube_luca.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THNmbfON7YI/AAAAAAAABuo/akGd06r4UaE/s320/chiara_zube_luca.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5508859391627881858" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Essere in compagnia di buoni amici e' da sempre una delle peculiarita' dei sacchibelli. Tra colleghi, ex colleghi, amici d'infanzia, ex compagni di scuola e cosi' via, in questi mesi stiamo davvero apprezzando il fatto di avere cosi' tante persone care intorno a noi. Cosi' ieri sera, visto che l'esperimento precedente (vedi &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/compagni-di-scuola-20-anni-fa.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;) era stato piu' che positivo, abbiamo avuto il piacere di avere Luca e Chiara, in compagnia dell'ottimo Roberto, a cena a casa nostra. Si e' divagato un po' su tutto, e si e' anche mangiato, ovviamente. Dalle bruschette al mitico ciauscolo, per poi approdare alla pasta col sugo a base di fagioli e un ottimo arrosto "arrotolato" preparato da Silvia. Per finire il gelato (eccezionalmente non autoprodotto....). Tutto ottimo, ma ottima e' stata soprattutto la bella serata che Luca, Chiara e Roberto ci hanno regalato. Grazie di cuore.&lt;hr&gt;It was an already tested scheme (see &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/compagni-di-scuola-20-anni-fa.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;), so it was a pleasure for us to have yesterday at our place for dinner Roberto, Luca and Chiara. They are three of many friends that in this period are close to us, thus giving us energy and happiness. The dinner was very nice, not only because of the great food Silvia prepared (bruschette, the amazing ciauscolo, a pasta with tomatoes and bean sauce, and a special rolled turkey roast) and although, exceptionally, we didin't prepare our famous ice cream, everything was great. Thanks a lot for spending with us such a nice evening...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-6252033603598434526?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/6252033603598434526/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=6252033603598434526' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6252033603598434526'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6252033603598434526'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/una-cena-in-buona-compagnia.html' title='Una cena in buona compagnia'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THNmbfON7YI/AAAAAAAABuo/akGd06r4UaE/s72-c/chiara_zube_luca.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6540752577974752146</id><published>2010-08-22T19:20:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-08-22T19:32:36.010+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gelato'/><title type='text'>Gelato al caffe'</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THFtNzkZGBI/AAAAAAAABug/SwTF2PyOQTk/s1600/gelato_caffe.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THFtNzkZGBI/AAAAAAAABug/SwTF2PyOQTk/s320/gelato_caffe.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5508303903199402002" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Come i nostri lettori sanno, qui dai sacchibelli siamo molto golosi di gelato, specialmente di quello da noi prodotto. E anno dopo anno la varieta' dei gusti aumenta. A inizio estate abbiamo creato quello con &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/mint-ice-cream-with-chocolate-chips.html"&gt;menta e pezzetti di cioccolato&lt;/a&gt;, mentre all'anno scorso risale lo straordinario &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/08/sacchibelli-delicatessen.html"&gt;gelato al pistacchio&lt;/a&gt;, probabilmente il nostro preferito. A questi si aggiungono i gusti piu' standard e collaudati, dal fior di latte al cioccolato, e poi quelli alla frutta (fragola, pere e cioccolato, pesca). Abbiamo provato anche quello alla &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/bottarga-in-compagnia.html"&gt;nocciola&lt;/a&gt;, probabilmente da perfezionare. Mancava pero' uno dei gusti piu' classici, cioe' il gelato al caffe'. E oggi abbiamo colmato la lacuna. Al solito dovete fidarvi del nostro giudizio, ma era davvero buonissimo...&lt;hr&gt;As you know, we really enjoy ice cream, and we are particularly proud of the one we are able to make with our ice cream machine. In these years we tried several flavors, starting with the classic "fior di latte" and ending, recently, with the &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/mint-ice-cream-with-chocolate-chips.html"&gt;mint and chocolate crisp&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/08/sacchibelli-delicatessen.html"&gt;"Gelato al pistachio"&lt;/a&gt; is probably the one we prefer, but today we tried a new flavor, and we enjoyed it a lot: coffe ice cream. You can see it in the photo, and we have to trust us, but it was really cool....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-6540752577974752146?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/6540752577974752146/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=6540752577974752146' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6540752577974752146'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6540752577974752146'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/gelato-al-caffe.html' title='Gelato al caffe&apos;'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THFtNzkZGBI/AAAAAAAABug/SwTF2PyOQTk/s72-c/gelato_caffe.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1796390237444148511</id><published>2010-08-22T08:02:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-08-22T08:27:18.568+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'>A volte ritornano</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THDNuAOuMiI/AAAAAAAABuY/MqRecO47zXQ/s1600/mantide_2010.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THDNuAOuMiI/AAAAAAAABuY/MqRecO47zXQ/s320/mantide_2010.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5508128534493540898" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Circa un anno fa (&lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/08/uno-strano-ospite.html"&gt;"Uno strano ospite"&lt;/a&gt;) avevamo avuto la simpatica visita di una mantide religiosa; evidentemente deve essersi trovata bene da noi e deve aver fatto buona pubblicita' di casa Sacchibelli. Cosi' ieri sera abbiamo avuto la gradita visita di un'altra mantide (un po' piu' piccola). La foto al buio non e' stata agevole, ma alla fine siamo riusciti a immortarlarla in modo decoroso.&lt;hr&gt; Roughly one year ago (&lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/08/uno-strano-ospite.html"&gt;"Uno strano ospite"&lt;/a&gt;) we discovered a mantis on the balcony of out apartment and it was quite cool to take a picture of it. Probably that mantis was excited of that experience and suggested to some other mantis to visit us. So yesterday Silvia found a little mantis on the balcony, and although it was dark, we were able to take a picture good enough&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1796390237444148511?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1796390237444148511/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1796390237444148511' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1796390237444148511'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1796390237444148511'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/volte-ritornano.html' title='A volte ritornano'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/THDNuAOuMiI/AAAAAAAABuY/MqRecO47zXQ/s72-c/mantide_2010.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-5407494172638080303</id><published>2010-08-17T22:41:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-08-17T22:49:06.833+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Una serata allegra</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TGsDCZn3COI/AAAAAAAABuQ/V9inW6UeQ7g/s1600/simo_ale_sergio_sanz.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TGsDCZn3COI/AAAAAAAABuQ/V9inW6UeQ7g/s320/simo_ale_sergio_sanz.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506498309163256034" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Gli ottimi Simone e Alessandra, con in loro bellissimo Emanuele, ci hanno proposto stasera una pizza, approfittando anche della presenza dell'altrettanto ottimo Sergio, in modalita' single, in attesa che moglie e bimbi tornino dalle vacanze. Alla gia' allegra comitiva si sono poi aggiunti Davide e Marta, e cosi' il gruppetto si e' fatto piuttosto consistente. Nonostante le poche pizzerie aperte in questo agosto pavese, siamo riusciti a infilarci alle &lt;a href="http://www.tretorrirestaurant.com"&gt;"Tre Torri"&lt;/a&gt;, dove abbiamo gustato un'ottima pizza. E all'uscita, nella piazza per l'appunto delle tre torri, ecco l'allegra compagnia al completo.&lt;hr&gt; This evening our friends Simone and Alessandra, together with their lovely Emanuele went out for a pizza with Sergio, a common friend living in "single mode" waiting for his wife and babies now in vacation. So we were very happy to join them, together with Davide and Marta, to spend a nice evening together. We were very lucky, finding a table at  &lt;a href="http://www.tretorrirestaurant.com"&gt;pizzeria Tre Torri&lt;/a&gt;, and this allowed us to eat a great pizza. And once we went out, a group picture was mandatory.

E siamo stati fortunati. Il sole ci ha degnato della sua presenza per tutta la giornata, e questo ha contribuito a rendere il Ferragosto decisamente piacevole. Poi la compagnia di Fulvio e Eva, con Antonella e Vic e la presenza anche di Luca e Laura (i temibili Xticati) e di altri amici (Luca e Susanna), unitamente alla scatenata allegria di tanti bimbi felici , ha reso la giornata piu' che speciale. Una menzione speciale poi alla grigliata e ai vari fuochisti che si sono susseguiti, capaci di cuocere alla perfezione tutto, dalla carne ai tomini, passando per le bruschette e le pannocchie. Grazie davvero a tutti!!!&lt;hr&gt;Although weather forecasts were not so good, we happily accepted the invitation to join Fulvio and Eva in Poggio Ferrato for the mid-August barbecue. We were quite lucky because we had an unexpected sunny day and we enjoyed the friendship of many people: Antonella and Vic, Laura and Luca (the Xticati), Luca and Susanna; moreover there were many babies that made the day really cheerful and eventful. A particular mention to Vic, Eva and the others who perfectly managed the barbecue: we really had an amazing lunch.. Thanks for the lovely day, we really appreciated it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-2083436642580667576?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/2083436642580667576/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=2083436642580667576' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2083436642580667576'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2083436642580667576'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/la-grigliata-di-ferragosto.html' title='La grigliata di Ferragosto'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TGglMndV0GI/AAAAAAAABuI/K5-NW9J7udw/s72-c/grigliata_ferragosto.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-3727259049047917631</id><published>2010-08-13T06:50:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-08-13T08:01:30.298+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Un gelato con Alice e Filippo</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TGTg5Vrs3xI/AAAAAAAABuA/cJJUQJD4aME/s1600/ali_filippo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TGTg5Vrs3xI/AAAAAAAABuA/cJJUQJD4aME/s320/ali_filippo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504771920231194386" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Certo il tempo non era dei piu' invitanti. Siamo ad agosto ma i temporali qui la fanno da padrone. Pero' e' pur sempre estate, e l'estate e' tempo di gelati. Cosi' ieri sera la gradita visita di Alice e Filippo e' stato il pretesto per preparare un gelato alle pesche bianche. Purtroppo ci siamo dimenticati di fotografarlo, ma direi che e' venuto piuttosto bene, nonostante il colore inevitabilmente un po' pallido. Grazie ancora per esserci passati a trovare e per una serata che, tra poesie, pesto, barche a vela, Corsica e quant'altro, e' stata decisamente piacevole.&lt;hr&gt; In the last period we are having thunderstorm every day. We don't know if summer is already expired, but for sure temperature is lower than expected. However summer is summer, and this means that it is always time for our famous ice cream. So yesterday we prepared a special "white peaches" gelato for our friends Alice and Filippo, almost ready for a travel to Corsica, a place we love a lot. Thanks for coming and for the nice evening spent together, discussing of so many topics, starting from Corsica we then moved to poetry (?) and then to pesto (we are very curious to try the one you will prepare), to sailboats and so on. And obviously we hope to see them again quite soon.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-3727259049047917631?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/3727259049047917631/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=3727259049047917631' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3727259049047917631'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3727259049047917631'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/un-gelato-con-alice-e-filippo.html' title='Un gelato con Alice e Filippo'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TGTg5Vrs3xI/AAAAAAAABuA/cJJUQJD4aME/s72-c/ali_filippo.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-5567118860412387188</id><published>2010-08-09T07:18:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-08-09T07:35:08.974+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Sant'Alberto di Butrio</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TF-g7WUTzCI/AAAAAAAABto/kkESbW57Ya4/s1600/sant_alberto_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TF-g7WUTzCI/AAAAAAAABto/kkESbW57Ya4/s320/sant_alberto_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5503294211133525026" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Non bisogna dirlo troppo forte, ma in queste ultime settimane al clima caldo e umido tipico delle regioni padane si e' sostituito un clima molto piu' simile a quello californiano, da noi tanto amato. Sole, cielo limpido, caldo (non troppo) e ventilato... Insomma una meraviglia. Cosi' ieri, essendo tra coloro che non sono andati in vacanza, ci siamo concessi un pomeriggio tra le colline del nostro Oltrepo', facendo in particolare una visita all'&lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eremo_di_Sant%27Alberto_di_Butrio"&gt;Eremo di Sant'Alberto di Butrio&lt;/a&gt; , posto decisamente suggestivo.

There is always a lovely sun (not too how), its windy and it is not so wet. Amazing. Let's cross our fingers and let's hope that also in the next weeks we will enjoy such a lovely weather. So yesterday we decided to visit &lt;a href="http://www.visual-italy.it/EN/lombardia/pavia/ponte-nizza/sant-alberto-butrio/"&gt;the hermitage of Sant'Alberto di Butrio&lt;/a&gt; a lovely place on the hills between Pavia and Piacenza.

La ricetta per una bella serata e' semplice qui dai sacchibelli: l'ingrediente fondamentale e' avere cari amici (in questo caso alcuni ottimi colleghi della componente maschile dei sacchibelli e i mitici Ivan e Gabry, piu' volte citati, ad esempio &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/06/una-gita-in-val-grande.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt; in questo blog); dopo di che se, come ieri sera, si trova un bel posto (clima perfetto e sorprendente assenza di zanzare) dove pure si mangia bene, la serata diventa per forza speciale, e cosi' e' stato. Grazie davvero a tutti, e un messaggio speciale ai leoni della Namibia: Fernando, il nostro amico che non ama i blog, e' davvero un caro amico, e poi, dal vostro punto di vista, mi sa che e' pure un po' indigesto, per cui....&lt;hr&gt;Yesterday we came back at "Osteria del mal tra insema" (called "da Camillo" many years ago), a place we love a lot, at least in this last period. It is quite strange that so close to the river there are no mosquitoes, but this makes this "osteria" very attractive. So, after the dinner with old school mates this time we easily convinced some dear friends (Ivan and Gabry and a bunch of colleagues of the male component of Sacchibelli) to share a nice evening together. Thanks a lot to everyone: to have so many friends around is something really energizing, and we hope to repeat the experiment again. And let us send a message to the lions of Namibia: although Fernando doesn't love the blogs, he is a dear friend to us, so please, avoid to raven him...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-4843023238233286419?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/4843023238233286419/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=4843023238233286419' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4843023238233286419'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4843023238233286419'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/gabry-ivan-fernando-piero-carlo.html' title='Sempre lungo il fiume, con altri amici'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TF0C-i9vaBI/AAAAAAAABtg/RNgCi2Pz6wo/s72-c/camillo_marvell_st.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1780643827150388731</id><published>2010-08-04T05:46:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-08-04T06:27:13.769+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Una sera d'estate, lungo il fiume</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TFj5gC_54aI/AAAAAAAABtY/afAd6PYEHoQ/s1600/liceo_camillo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TFj5gC_54aI/AAAAAAAABtY/afAd6PYEHoQ/s320/liceo_camillo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5501421273789096354" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Si potrebbe pensare che cenare lungo il fiume ai primi d'agosto, appena fuori Pavia, sia una scelta folle, invece... Invece e' stata davvero una bella serata, un bel ritrovo con vecchi (si fa per dire, in fin dei conti sono passati solo 20anni dalla maturita') compagni di liceo, un incrocio di ricordi e prospettive, in un posto suggestivo e senza zanzare (potere della disinfestazione). Nonostante il gruppo fosse un po' ridotto, causa vacanze e impegni pregressi, la serata e' trascorsa davvero in modo piacevole: ai tempi del liceo il locale si chiamava "Camillo", ora credo si chiami &lt;a href="http://www.nessundove.net/domenica-al-fiume/"&gt;"Osteria del Mal tra insema"&lt;/a&gt;, ma la sua posizione su una splendida ansa del Ticino lo rende davvero suggestivo (e comunque si e' mangiato piuttosto bene). Grazie ancora per la bella serata, in attesa di organizzare un raduno esteso a tutti gli ex, per celebrare i 20 anni della nostra maturita'.&lt;hr&gt;Yesterday we had a nice dinner together with some old high-school mates. We went at the &lt;a href="http://www.nessundove.net/domenica-al-fiume/"&gt;"Osteria del Mal tra insema"&lt;/a&gt;, the old "Camillo" and surprisingly we didn't find mosquitos. Although someone has missed the appointment (it is vacation time, by the way), to share a nice dinner in a nice place with some good friend is always a good exercise. And soon we will try to gather all the old school mates to celebrate the 20th anniversary of our school living certificate.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1780643827150388731?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1780643827150388731/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1780643827150388731' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1780643827150388731'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1780643827150388731'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/una-sera-destate-lungo-il-fiume.html' title='Una sera d&apos;estate, lungo il fiume'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TFj5gC_54aI/AAAAAAAABtY/afAd6PYEHoQ/s72-c/liceo_camillo.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-5940008109976727836</id><published>2010-08-01T12:09:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-08-01T12:19:21.665+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Il frutto dell'estate...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TFVYAUPQFrI/AAAAAAAABtI/xLV7Sa44Z-I/s1600/blueberry1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TFVYAUPQFrI/AAAAAAAABtI/xLV7Sa44Z-I/s320/blueberry1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5500399282358851250" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Quest'anno i sacchibelli hanno preso la bella abitudine di comprare frutta e verdura di stagione al &lt;a href="http://www.nessundove.net/fragranti-imperfezioni/"&gt;mercato a impatto zero&lt;/a&gt; della Coldiretti, che si tiene in piazza del Carmine il mercoledi' e il sabato.

And the idea of buying products that comes from here around (without the need of long transportation and thus pollution) sounds good to us. There is a particular fruit that we love a lot and we used to buy there. Let's see if some of our readers is able to guess which is this fruit...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-5940008109976727836?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/5940008109976727836/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=5940008109976727836' title='6 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/5940008109976727836'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/5940008109976727836'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/08/il-frutto-dellestate.html' title='Il frutto dell&apos;estate...'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TFVYAUPQFrI/AAAAAAAABtI/xLV7Sa44Z-I/s72-c/blueberry1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-7068506124120505832</id><published>2010-07-26T20:02:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-07-26T20:13:38.953+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bike'/><title type='text'>Che palle...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TE3eFXM-x_I/AAAAAAAABs8/si6LkS8hoVo/s1600/pale_mozart.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TE3eFXM-x_I/AAAAAAAABs8/si6LkS8hoVo/s320/pale_mozart.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498294903798417394" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Quest'anno le avventure del &lt;a href="http://www.pedalemaiale.org"&gt;Pedale-Maiale&lt;/a&gt; non si sono ancora concretizzate del tutto, visto quel che e' successo. Ma il nostro amico Antonio, pure lui appassionato di cicloturismo, e' appena rientrato da una stupenda pedalata lungo il Danubio, con arrivo a Vienna (per un totale di 350 km). Avremmo voluto essere con lui anche fisicamente, ma ci siamo dovuti limitare ad accompagnarlo col pensiero... E lui, molto cortese come al solito, ci ha portato un apprezzatissimo regalo: le mitiche palle di Mozart. Grazie di cuore!!!! Pensiero molto dolce e apprezzato :-)&lt;hr&gt;This year we didn't have a chance to organize a &lt;a href="http://www.pedalemaiale.org"&gt;Pedale-Maiale&lt;/a&gt; adventure; not yet at least. However our friend Antonio, a bike lover too, just came back from an amazing bike ride following the Danube through di Austria, up to Wien. We were thinking to him during these days, and, very kindly, he tough to us. In fact he gave us a really cool gift, here shown in the picture. And as you can imagine, Sacchibelli appreciated it a lot. Thank you very much Antonio!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-7068506124120505832?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/7068506124120505832/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=7068506124120505832' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7068506124120505832'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7068506124120505832'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/07/che-palle.html' title='Che palle...'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TE3eFXM-x_I/AAAAAAAABs8/si6LkS8hoVo/s72-c/pale_mozart.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6958059008641732630</id><published>2010-07-24T12:09:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-07-24T12:47:27.065+01:00</updated><title type='text'>When the sky turns blue</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TErNqOEc-XI/AAAAAAAABss/r7Fq3nCmhnU/s1600/sanmichele_cielo_blu.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TErNqOEc-XI/AAAAAAAABss/r7Fq3nCmhnU/s320/sanmichele_cielo_blu.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5497432420374083954" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;E' forse banale, ma quando il cielo e' blu, l'aria frizzante, il sole tiepido, tutto appare piu' bello. Qui a Pavia purtroppo capita di rado, specie d'estate, ma i temporali di questa notte ci hanno regalato una bella sorpresa stamattina. Godiamoci questo week-end simil californiano (sperando che il vento tenga lontane anche le zanzare questa sera).

However this morning, after the night t-storm, we received a great gift: an amazing blue sky, with some wind and a warm sun. A California-like weather that allowed us to better enjoy our Saturday morning walk through the center of the town. And everything looks better, starting from the castle, and ending with the bridge on the river. And San Michele too, with this sky, looks more impressive than usual.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TErNCK3DsyI/AAAAAAAABsM/BejKQ0cCUHw/s1600/castello_cielo_blu.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TErNCK3DsyI/AAAAAAAABsM/BejKQ0cCUHw/s320/castello_cielo_blu.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5497431732317827874" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-6958059008641732630?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/6958059008641732630/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=6958059008641732630' title='3 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6958059008641732630'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6958059008641732630'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/07/when-sky-turns-blue.html' title='When the sky turns blue'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TErNqOEc-XI/AAAAAAAABss/r7Fq3nCmhnU/s72-c/sanmichele_cielo_blu.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-5334266273802570564</id><published>2010-07-18T12:58:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-07-18T13:23:09.728+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Ghiaccibelli</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TELxzmXLGAI/AAAAAAAABsE/4g2SBajmuIU/s1600/enrico_ghiacciolo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TELxzmXLGAI/AAAAAAAABsE/4g2SBajmuIU/s320/enrico_ghiacciolo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5495220364118792194" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Non ci pare che il caldo e l'afa di questo periodo siano cosi' eccezionali come i giornali sottolineano, ma certo non si puo' dire che il clima sia piacevole.

Al solito tendo a focalizzarmi su problemi di mobilita', traffico o simili. Cosi' oggi, quando ho notato con piacere che alcuni operai stavano ripristinando la segnaletica orizzontale lungo l'alzaia (anche nelle altre citta' la segnaletica orizzonatale si cancella cosi' in fretta???), l'impressione favorevole e' durata proprio poco. La foto evidenzia infatti l'accuratezza con cui la linea bianca e' stata disegnata... Certo, tagliare l'erba a bordo strada avrebbe richiesto piu' tempo e piu' sforzo, ma disegnare la linea sull'erba mi pare proprio inutile....&lt;hr&gt;Here at Pavia we are experiencing many serious problems (see &lt;a href="http://milano.corriere.it/milano/notizie/cronaca/10_luglio_15/Corvi-chiarico-e-la-ndrangheta-1703382801071.shtml"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;), but let's talk a little bit about a small issue we observed today, just to show how accurately "public jobs" are carried out... Today I was happy to see that painted road markings were under remake, but when I focus on some details (see picture) i realized that to paint grass is not that efficient... This is probably a reason why, in few weeks, painted road markings usually fade...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-4945180326486166692?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/4945180326486166692/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=4945180326486166692' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4945180326486166692'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4945180326486166692'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/07/un-lavoro-di-precisione.html' title='Un lavoro di precisione'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TD9tK_qbcMI/AAAAAAAABr0/LmIMk2dRpk8/s72-c/DSC00981.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1217577175795890827</id><published>2010-07-12T18:22:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-07-12T18:38:53.375+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Un pranzo solitario</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDtS78qYc0I/AAAAAAAABrs/gzys0GcoMM8/s1600/pasta_senza_silvia.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDtS78qYc0I/AAAAAAAABrs/gzys0GcoMM8/s320/pasta_senza_silvia.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493075360358101826" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Oggi Silvia, dopo tanti mesi, ha ripreso ad andare a lavorare. Di per se' e' una buona notizia, perche' lentamente le cose si risistemano e, anche se non e' facile, insieme cerchiamo di riprendere il ritmo e il tran tran che ha contraddistinto la nostra vita fino a circa un anno fa. Certo forse sarebbe stato piu' d'aiuto per Silvia poter tornare al lavoro prima, ma di questo si e' gia' parlato, e gia' si e' detto che la legge che obbliga anche in casi come questi ai tre mesi di maternita' appare troppo rigida. Le sensazioni sono strane e di sicuro, soprattutto per lei, non e' stato facile riprendere. Per la componente maschile dei sacchibelli l'effetto collaterale e' stato invece minore, anche se non e' facile dover ritornare a pensare al pranzo, quando ormai ci si era abituati ad avere Silvia che preparava succulenti manicaretti. Cosi' oggi, tornato comunque a casa e superato lo choc di trovare la casa vuota, mi sono comunque dilettato nel preparare un buon piatto di pasta. A dir la verita' appare piu' bello di quanto non fosse buono, ma visto che questo e' un blog e i nostri lettori si devono accontentare solo delle foto, ecco qui la pasta con pomodoro fresco, olive e pecorino sardo che ha costituito la base del mio pranzetto.&lt;hr&gt;Today Silvia came back to work, after almost 11 months, with the heart full of strong sensations. It was not easy for her, although to start again with the regular life we used to have until 1 year ago will probably help us finding the good rhythm and new energies. For the male component the choc was not that big, but I had to think to the lunch and it was not easy because it was great to have lunch with her in this period (also because she was always cooking something delicious. So today I had to prepare something by myself, but I was happy enough because the pasta I cooked tasted good. Fresh tomatoes, olives and "pecorino" cheese....

L'occasione e' stata la tradizionale visita estiva della Contafamily, al completo. Con la scusa poi di vedere la semifinale Uruguay-Olanda insieme, si sono poi aggiunti Flavio (per la verita' non interessato alla partita), Luca e Laura e i binaschini, Enea, Ilaria, Greg e il piccolo Riccardo. Una rimpatriata vera e propria di ex compagni di Universita'. Certo, se si pensa che ci siamo conosciuti addirittura 20 anni fa, da matricole universitarie, fa un po' impressione, ma rivedere vecchi amici e' sempre una sensazione stupenda.

Contafamily came back to Italy for a short vacation, and thus we invited Flavio, Luca and Laura, Enea, Ilaria, Greg and Riccardo at our place, to meet all together. The pretext was to watch together Uruguay vs Netherlands (as you know Italy early disappeared from Soccer World Cup), but at the end it was the occasion to talk with dear friends we don't see so often. Thanks for coming and thank for being so kind with us.

Qui i vigili urbani non transitano quasi mai, e abbiamo gia' documentato parecchi episodi di sosta selvaggia su marciapiedi e incroci... Ieri pero', primo lunedi' del mese, e' giorno di pulizia di un lato della strada, e sorprendentemente i vigili urbani si manifestano, puntuali, e multano chi ha comunque parcheggiato lungo il lato della strada soggetto a pulizia. Sembra una buona notizia, senonche' si dimenticano di multare chi invece ha parcheggiato sul marciapiede. Certo la ford fiesta scura nella foto non intralciava la pulizia della strada, ma di sicuro intralciava i pedoni. Evidentemente pero' a Pavia e' tollerato il parcheggio sui marciapiedi e la morale e' che il primo lunedi' del mese prossimo, per evitare la multa, tutti parcheggieranno sul marciapiede. W l'Italia.&lt;hr&gt;Probably it happens only in Italy, and more specifically in via Bixio, in Pavia. Usually there are many cars parked on the sidewalk, thus causing troubles to pedestrians, but there is no any police guy that give them a parking ticket, mainly because police guys are probably too busy and don't have time to come here. But yesterday it was scheduled a street cleaning and traffic police appeared thus giving parking tickets to all the cars parked on the left side of the street. Unfortunately they didn't give any parking ticket to the ford fiesta parked on the sidewalk... thus confirming to me the sensation that in Italy it is allowed to park over there. I'm worried that next time, to avoid parking tickets during street cleaning, everyone will park on the sidewalk....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8591088715490559999?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8591088715490559999/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8591088715490559999' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8591088715490559999'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8591088715490559999'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/07/sosta-selvaggia.html' title='Sosta selvaggia'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDM0SeCaSkI/AAAAAAAABrU/bY_rxI2abSI/s72-c/multa_lavaggio.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-743527265829814011</id><published>2010-07-06T14:15:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-07-06T14:30:04.722+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='family'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Una cognata a cena</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDMvQyKdfCI/AAAAAAAABrM/_bUYE1pzoDk/s1600/francy_sacchibelli.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDMvQyKdfCI/AAAAAAAABrM/_bUYE1pzoDk/s320/francy_sacchibelli.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5490784336084827170" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ieri abbiamo avuto a cena Francesca, la cognata dal lato maschile della famiglia sacchibelli, dopo che, settimana scorsa, era toccato alla cognata Luisa, accompagnata da Paolo. Francesca invece ieri sera era sola, giacche' papa' Marco, nonna Margherita, il piccolo Michele e la non piu' piccola (ma non ancora grande) Ilaria sono felicemente al mare. La maturita' ha invece richiamato Francesca a Pavia, e cosi' ne abbiamo approfittato per una cena (rigorosamente fredda, viste le temperature di questi giorni). Serata piacevole e tranquilla, e anche se Ilaria e Michelino erano assenti, si sono manifestati due o tre volte per telefono, suscitando in noi un po' di invidia per il fatto che erano in riva al mare mentre telefonavano...&lt;hr&gt;Yesterday Francesca, one of the two sisters in law of Sacchibelli family, came at our place for a dinner. She was alone because the rest of the family (dad Marco, grandmother Margherita, little Michele and little (but not so little) Ilaria were in vacation. The dinner was quite good, and hopefully we had air conditioning working well. This allowed us to relax a little bit and to survive to high temperature and humidity we are experiencing in these days.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-743527265829814011?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/743527265829814011/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=743527265829814011' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/743527265829814011'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/743527265829814011'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/07/una-cognata-cena.html' title='Una cognata a cena'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDMvQyKdfCI/AAAAAAAABrM/_bUYE1pzoDk/s72-c/francy_sacchibelli.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6089232264508845535</id><published>2010-07-04T10:10:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-07-04T10:47:46.235+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Home-made ricotta</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDBVvqA-7PI/AAAAAAAABqk/tbdYbM19JVY/s1600/ricotta_honme_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDBVvqA-7PI/AAAAAAAABqk/tbdYbM19JVY/s320/ricotta_honme_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489982222985260274" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Milk with salt and citron, as a starting point&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Qui dai sacchibelli produciamo abitualmente pane, pasta, gelato, yogurt e cosi' via. E siamo piuttosto orgogliosi di questa nostra peculiarita'. Riguardo al formaggio, invece, non abbiamo mai pensado di produrlo, ma ci siamo limitati a mangiarlo, in ogni sua forma, in gran quantita' (abitudine che, probabilmente, a causa del valore elevato di colesterolo (208) da parte della componente maschile andra' un po' modificata...) Tuttavia recentemente la nostra cara amica &lt;a href="http://uilborina.blogspot.com/"&gt;Daniela&lt;/a&gt; ci ha spedito per posta, da Portland, un regalo davvero speciale: un kit per fare in casa ricotta e mozzarella. Cosi' oggi, uno dei giorni piu' caldi dell'anno, ci siamo messi in cucina a far bollire latte e quant'altro, e alla fine abbiamo prodotto la prima, eccezionale, ricotta sacchibelli. Eccezionale. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDBVwqsrF5I/AAAAAAAABqs/1C9GjvmoGiA/s1600/ricotta_honme_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDBVwqsrF5I/AAAAAAAABqs/1C9GjvmoGiA/s320/ricotta_honme_2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489982240348379026" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Ricotta is almost ready&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Grazie Daniela, sarebbe bellissimo poter condividere i risultati del tuo regalo, ma per ora mi sa che dovrai accontentarti di ammirare la ricotta in queste foto.

And we are very proud of this peculiarity. While we usually eat a lot of cheese (although recent blood analysis will probably change this attitude, at least for the male component), we always tought about it as something to be bought, not to be made. However, recently, our special friend &lt;a href="http://uilborina.blogspot.com/"&gt;Daniela&lt;/a&gt; sent us by mail, from Portland, a great gift: a kit to make home-made ricotta and mozzarella cheese, amazing!!! And today, one of the hottest day here at Pavia, we decided to follow the recipe for home-made ricotta.. And the result was amazingly great. Thanks a lot Daniela, we have really enjoyed to make cheese together; it was very funny (and the result was very good).&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDBVxUtlQLI/AAAAAAAABq0/Y2Ua4HXz5RA/s1600/ricotta_honme_4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDBVxUtlQLI/AAAAAAAABq0/Y2Ua4HXz5RA/s320/ricotta_honme_4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489982251626479794" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Here we go...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-6089232264508845535?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/6089232264508845535/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=6089232264508845535' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6089232264508845535'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6089232264508845535'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/07/home-made-ricotta.html' title='Home-made ricotta'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TDBVvqA-7PI/AAAAAAAABqk/tbdYbM19JVY/s72-c/ricotta_honme_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-4587774776395877425</id><published>2010-07-03T07:49:00.006+01:00</published><updated>2010-07-03T08:25:58.017+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Social sacchibelli (5)</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC7g9ygsNsI/AAAAAAAABqM/7GvbBwRKYlI/s1600/enrico_silvia_luisa_paolo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC7g9ygsNsI/AAAAAAAABqM/7GvbBwRKYlI/s320/enrico_silvia_luisa_paolo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489572347946743490" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Il gruppo, con Gino in primo piano&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La vita sociale dei sacchibelli prosegue intensa.

Serata piacevole, completata con il classico gelato al cioccolato e i prelibati biscotti canadesi portati da Paolo. E alla fine la classica foto di gruppo, con Gino, il maialino fatto da Silvia, in primo piano. Grazie per esserci venuti a trovare e grazie per la bella sera trascorsa assieme. E grazie al condizionatore che ha reso vivibilie l'ambiente....&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC7g-gnzYuI/AAAAAAAABqU/_1AWEriL1Kw/s1600/arrosto_tacchino_mutz.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC7g-gnzYuI/AAAAAAAABqU/_1AWEriL1Kw/s320/arrosto_tacchino_mutz.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489572360324604642" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;L'eccezionale arrosto "arrotolato" di tacchino&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our social life is always active and yesterday we had for a dinner at our place Paolo and Luisa. Weather was very hot and wet, but hopefull we had air conditioning and we prepared a summer-style menu. The new entry of our menu was the amazing turkey roast, we served cold with some salad. As a dessert Paolo brought some special cookies from Canada, that were perfect for our chocolate ice cream. Thanks for coming Paolo and Luisa, and thanks for the nice evening we spent together.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC7g_PKnZ7I/AAAAAAAABqc/10pFmVyV69g/s1600/gelato_biscotti_canada.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC7g_PKnZ7I/AAAAAAAABqc/10pFmVyV69g/s320/gelato_biscotti_canada.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489572372818651058" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Gli ottimi e inediti biscotti al succo d'acero nel gelato al cioccolato&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-4587774776395877425?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/4587774776395877425/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=4587774776395877425' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4587774776395877425'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4587774776395877425'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/07/social-sacchibelli-5.html' title='Social sacchibelli (5)'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC7g9ygsNsI/AAAAAAAABqM/7GvbBwRKYlI/s72-c/enrico_silvia_luisa_paolo.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-373976323807952733</id><published>2010-07-01T21:37:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-07-03T06:59:37.829+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Social sacchibelli (4)</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC0DNcCmnII/AAAAAAAABpk/THG9M69FQqE/s1600/appetizers_beatrice.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC0DNcCmnII/AAAAAAAABpk/THG9M69FQqE/s320/appetizers_beatrice.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489047050234797186" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Gli ottimi antipasti di melanzane, fiori di zucca e peperoni&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La nostra vita sociale procede sempre piu' intensamente, e ieri sera siamo andati a cena dal Colonnello e dalla Sig.ra Beatrice. Abbiamo gia' parlato di loro parecchie volte (&lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/cena-col-colonnello-e-signora.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/02/cassata.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;, per esempio) ed e' sempre piacevole per noi condividere dei momenti con loro. La signora Beatrice ha cucinato una cena straordinaria: come antipasto abbiamo avuto delle ottime polpette di melanzane, assieme a peperoni al forno e fiori di zucca fritti; poi, come primo, delle travolgenti fettuccine alla bottarga e poi, per restare sul tema, dell'ottimo tonno grigliato. Il tutto accompagnato da ottimo Verdicchio di Jesi. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC0DNzip8GI/AAAAAAAABps/-uL2JyylaJM/s1600/bottarga_beatrice.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC0DNzip8GI/AAAAAAAABps/-uL2JyylaJM/s320/bottarga_beatrice.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489047056543248482" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Le incredibili fettuccine con la bottarga&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La cena si e' poi conclusa con un'inimitabile bavarese alle fragole, preparata sempre dalla Sig.ra Beatrice. E' difficile spiegare a parole quanto sia stata squisita la cena, ma nonostante questo, l'aspetto piu' piacevole della serata e' stato trascorrere del tempo con degli amici speciali come il mitico Colonnello e sua moglie, l'altrettanto mitica signora Beatrice. E nella foto di gruppo si sono aggiunti anche Raffaella e Giorgio, rispettivamente figlia e nipote di questa speciale coppia.&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC0DOK9ny5I/AAAAAAAABp0/L0JGcj8kBsE/s1600/tuna_beatrice.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC0DOK9ny5I/AAAAAAAABp0/L0JGcj8kBsE/s320/tuna_beatrice.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489047062830369682" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;L'ottimo tonno ai ferri&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our social life goes on, and yesterday we went for a dinner at Colonnello's and Ms. Beatrice's place. We have already mentioned them many times (&lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/cena-col-colonnello-e-signora.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/02/cassata.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, for example) and it is always nice to spend some time with them. Before leaving for their vacations, Ms. Beatrice cooked an amazing dinner for me and Silvia. As appetizer we had "polpetta alle melanzane", oven cooked peppers and  fried pumpkin flowers. You can see them in the first picture, and they were really good. Then we had "fettuccine" with botargo. No words to explain how wonderful they were. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC0DOfzj9PI/AAAAAAAABp8/n8TBvMNkNSY/s1600/bavarese_beatrice.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TC0DOfzj9PI/AAAAAAAABp8/n8TBvMNkNSY/s320/bavarese_beatrice.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489047068425319666" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;La prelibata bavarese alle fragole&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then grilled tuna with some salad. Fantastic!!!! And we concluded with a strawberry bavarois, obviously hand made by Ms. Beatrice. There was good wine to drink with (Verdicchio di Jesi) and this made the dinner perfect. But although everything was extraordinary, we really enjoyed to stay with these special friends. Thanks again for inviting us.

La scusa era assaggiare il nostro celebre gelato (fior di latte  e cioccolato, particolarmente apprezzato da Edoardo), ma in realtà è stata l'occasione per chiacchierare con due cari amici con cui era da un po' che non ci si vedeva. Grazie per esserci venuti a trovare, e grazie per aver portato con voi il piccolo Edoardo, il suo sorrise è davvero irresistibile.&lt;hr&gt;Our social weekend ended on Sunday, in the afternoon, when we met, at our place, Luca, Laura and the smiling Edoardo, their lovely baby. They came to taste our famous ice cream ("fior di latte" and chocolate, and Edoardo approved it), and it was the occasion to talk with them, after many months. Thanks for coming, and thanks for bringing with you Edoardo. He is amazingly kind, and his smile is really irresistible.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-298663931119868319?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/298663931119868319/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=298663931119868319' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/298663931119868319'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/298663931119868319'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/social-sacchibelli-3.html' title='Social Sacchibelli (3)'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCt9wd4i2PI/AAAAAAAABpc/hfRqSRssC0A/s72-c/xticati.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-7939601679589266495</id><published>2010-06-30T14:48:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-06-30T15:10:09.745+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Social sacchibelli (2)</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCtOHtm00tI/AAAAAAAABpU/iLYbWdftLfY/s1600/cena_repox_emma.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCtOHtm00tI/AAAAAAAABpU/iLYbWdftLfY/s320/cena_repox_emma.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488566465289573074" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Come detto, e' periodo intenso questo. Cosi' sabato sera scorsa siamo stati invitati dagli ottimi Matteo e Laura per una cena. La serata e' stata allietata dalla piccola Emma, veramente simpatica e bravissima. Cosi' chiacchierando con due cari amici come Matteo e Laura, abbiamo trascorso una serata davvero piacevole, gustando tra l'altro degli ottimi piatti, primo fra tutti lo straordinario vitello tonnato preparato da Laura. Purtroppo non abbiamo avuto modo di fotografarlo perche' era troppo buono, e ci siamo preoccupati di divorarlo. Ed ecco la foto di rito, con la splendida Emma come protagonista.&lt;hr&gt;As already explained, this is quite busy period from the social point of view. So last Saturday we went for a dinner at Matteo's and Laura's place. The dinner was very good, in particular the sliced veal with tuna made by Laura. And Emma, their baby, was amazingly kind and nice, as you can see in the picture.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-7939601679589266495?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/7939601679589266495/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=7939601679589266495' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7939601679589266495'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7939601679589266495'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/socia-sacchibelli-2.html' title='Social sacchibelli (2)'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCtOHtm00tI/AAAAAAAABpU/iLYbWdftLfY/s72-c/cena_repox_emma.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1590250281295135414</id><published>2010-06-29T14:07:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-06-29T19:14:29.292+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Social sacchibelli</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCn8mz_ypqI/AAAAAAAABpM/M-VMUwjIId8/s1600/cena_nonni.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCn8mz_ypqI/AAAAAAAABpM/M-VMUwjIId8/s320/cena_nonni.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488195364650657442" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In questo periodo, tra amici e parenti che ci invitano o che invitiamo a pranzo/cena, i sacchibelli sono piuttosto impegnati. Insomma, una vita sociale quasi frenetica in questa estate pavese che stenta a decollare... Cosi' sabato scorso siamo andati a pranzo dai genitori della compomente maschile dei sacchibelli. Ed e' stata una tavolata piuttosto affollata e piacevole, rallegrata anche dai nipotini Michelino e Ilarietta. Che dire, grazie ancora!!!&lt;hr&gt;In this period we are quite busy, thanks to many friends and relatives that invite us for lunch or dinner. So, last Saturday we went at my parents place for a nice lunch together with Silvia's relatives. There were also Ilaria and Michele, and this made the lunch funny enough. Thanks again for the nice afternoon spent together&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1590250281295135414?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1590250281295135414/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1590250281295135414' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1590250281295135414'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1590250281295135414'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/social-sacchibelli.html' title='Social sacchibelli'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCn8mz_ypqI/AAAAAAAABpM/M-VMUwjIId8/s72-c/cena_nonni.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-23321304688302752</id><published>2010-06-27T15:17:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-06-27T21:22:40.106+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Tabi socks</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCeyP3eMOxI/AAAAAAAABpE/Ch4jIrad1lk/s1600/tabisocks.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCeyP3eMOxI/AAAAAAAABpE/Ch4jIrad1lk/s320/tabisocks.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5487550656632601362" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Dopo il periodo trascorso a Berkeley nell'ormai lontano 2000/2001 ho imparato ad apprezzare le ciabatte infradito, davvero popoplari in California. D'estate le uso sempre, o quasi, visto che in ufficio, purtroppo, il loro uso non e' permesso. Fosse per me le userei anche d'inverno, ma essendo qui l'inverno freddo, e richiedendo quindi l'uso di calze, la cosa e' piuttosto complicata. Luisa pero' mi ha fatto un regalo davvero speciale: un paio di &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabi"&gt;tabi socks&lt;/a&gt;. Sono calze, di origini giapponesi, caratterizzate dal fatto che l'alluce e' separato dalle altre dita, risultando cosi' compatibili con le mitiche infradito. L'inverno prossimo sara' davvero divertente usarle...&lt;hr&gt;After my period at Berkeley in 2000/01, I discovered flip flops. In summer time I would use them every day but, unfortunately, I'm not allowed to use them at my office. I probably would use them in winter time too, but the fact that they are not compatible with socks complicate a little bit the job (here, in winter time, socks are needed because weather is quiet cold). However my sister in law gave me a very nice and appreciated gift: &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabi"&gt;tabi socks&lt;/a&gt;. They come from Japan (another country where flip flops are very popular) and their peculiarity is that the big toe zone is separated from the one of other toes, thus being compatible with flip flops. So next winter it will be cool to wear tabi socks with flip flop. Thanks a lot Luisa!!!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-23321304688302752?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/23321304688302752/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=23321304688302752' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/23321304688302752'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/23321304688302752'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/tabi-socks.html' title='Tabi socks'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TCeyP3eMOxI/AAAAAAAABpE/Ch4jIrad1lk/s72-c/tabisocks.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-7260304969852343087</id><published>2010-06-20T08:48:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-06-20T09:14:31.191+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Bottarga in compagnia</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TB3NrWqdbUI/AAAAAAAABos/606qbziA5OE/s1600/alessio_fernando_silvia_enrico.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TB3NrWqdbUI/AAAAAAAABos/606qbziA5OE/s320/alessio_fernando_silvia_enrico.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5484766065908870466" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;L'ottima signora Beatrice, gia' citata riguardo alla sua celebre &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/02/cassata.html"&gt;cassata&lt;/a&gt;, ci ha gentilmente omaggiato di un pregiato pezzo di &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottarga"&gt;bottarga di muggine&lt;/a&gt;, proveniente dalla Sicilia. Abbiamo cosi' colto l'occasione per invitare a cena Alessio e Fernando (quest'ultimo e' il nostro amico che non ama i blog...) e preparare loro dei succulenti spaghetti alla bottarga. La cena, rigorosamente a base di pesce, e' proseguita con trota salmonata al forno e si e' chiusa con un inedito gelato alla nocciola made in Sacchibelli. Che dire, grazie ad Alessio e Fernando per la bella serata... E un pensiero ad Antonio che, disdegnando la bottarga, ha cosi' rinunciato (a sua insaputa) anche al gelato alla nocciola....&lt;br /&gt;P.S.

So we decided to invite some friends at our place, to share with them such a delicious dish. We thus invited Alessio and Fernando, and we cooked the famous "spaghetti with bottarga", something special and unusual here in the north of Italy. The dinner was mainly fish based, with salmon trut after the spaghetti, but we ended with our famous "gelato", trying in particular a new flavor: almond. The evening was quite nice and we have to thanks Alessio and Fernando for joining us. And obviously we have to thank Ms. Beatrice for the special botargo she gave us.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TB3NsakX36I/AAAAAAAABo8/dyFz_HSGIx0/s1600/gelato_nocciola.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TB3NsakX36I/AAAAAAAABo8/dyFz_HSGIx0/s320/gelato_nocciola.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5484766084136951714" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-7260304969852343087?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/7260304969852343087/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=7260304969852343087' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7260304969852343087'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7260304969852343087'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/bottarga-in-compagnia.html' title='Bottarga in compagnia'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TB3NrWqdbUI/AAAAAAAABos/606qbziA5OE/s72-c/alessio_fernando_silvia_enrico.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-2610027235816242287</id><published>2010-06-19T07:35:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-06-19T11:34:23.609+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='animals'/><title type='text'>Sacchibelli jungle</title><content type='html'>&lt;center&gt;&lt;object width="432" height="346.5"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/OnMAnJ4Bkhw&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/OnMAnJ4Bkhw&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="432" height="346.5"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Qui dai Sacchibelli si e' parlato spesso di cibo, di fiori, e di molti altri argomenti. Effettivamente di animali se ne parla proprio poco, fatta eccezione per gli &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/09/amigurumi.html"&gt;amigurumi&lt;/a&gt; e pochi altri posts. Tuttavia oggi postiamo un filmato fatto dal nostro balcone e riguardante uno "strano" combattimento tra tartarughe (la vicina del piano terra ha un bel giardino con un po' di tartarughe). A noi pare un combattimento in piena regola, ma c'e' chi dice che si tratti di una forma "bizzarra" di corteggiamento. C'e' qualche esperto tra i nostri lettori?&lt;hr&gt;Here at sacchibelli's animals are not a common topic in our posts, with the exception of the crazy &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/09/amigurumi.html"&gt;amigurumi&lt;/a&gt; created by Silvia. However today we post a video we took from our balcony about a turtles fight. At the ground floor there is a nice garden with a bunch of turtles, and few days ago two of them were fighting each other. Someone says that it is a kind of wooing courtship, but to us it seems quite "violent".

Cosi', avendo dell'ottima menta in vaso sul nostro balcone, abbiamo provato a fare il gelato alla menta (arricchito da gocce di cioccolato), una specie di cioccomenta. Ecco la ricetta:&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt; 450 ml di latte fresco (parzialmente scremato)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 250 ml di panna fresca&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 140 g di zucchero&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 15 g di foglie di menta tritate finissime&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 1 bustina di vanillina&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 50 g di cioccolato in pezzettini&lt;/ul&gt;Le foto sono autoesplicative, e il gusto (per ora fidatevi) e' davvero particolare. E ovviamente squisito. Ecco &lt;a href="http://picnica.ciao.com/it/3462642.jpg"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt; inoltre il tipo di macchina per gelato che usiamo.&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TBYoNifx_uI/AAAAAAAABoU/cpEtRRcUjcM/s1600/menta_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TBYoNifx_uI/AAAAAAAABoU/cpEtRRcUjcM/s320/menta_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5482613809433673442" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Here at Sacchibelli's we are always experimenting new flavors of our famous ice-cream. After the excellent "pistacchio" we tried thus mint ice-cream with chocolate chips, starting from the mint we have on the balcony. The result, as usual, was quite good. Here is the recipe we elaborated:&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt; 450 ml milk&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 250 ml cream&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 140 g sugar&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 15 g di mint leaves (minced)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 1 small bag of vanilla&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; 50 g chocolat chips&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;a href="http://picnica.ciao.com/it/3462642.jpg"&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt; you can see the ice cream machine we use.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1250562144399279011?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1250562144399279011/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1250562144399279011' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1250562144399279011'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1250562144399279011'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/mint-ice-cream-with-chocolate-chips.html' title='Mint ice cream with chocolate chips'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TBYoN-XQmUI/AAAAAAAABoc/in4VHfTqIys/s72-c/gelatomenta_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-255451332122681266</id><published>2010-06-09T21:32:00.012+01:00</published><updated>2010-06-10T08:03:58.068+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Travels'/><title type='text'>Un viaggio in Toscana</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://www.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&amp;amp;doflg=ptk&amp;amp;ie=UTF8&amp;amp;msa=0&amp;amp;msid=109805196275601822121.0004889ecc442879c2477&amp;amp;ll=43.491425,11.02467&amp;amp;spn=0.914589,1.672668&amp;amp;t=h&amp;amp;output=embed"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;View &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&amp;amp;doflg=ptk&amp;amp;ie=UTF8&amp;amp;msa=0&amp;amp;msid=109805196275601822121.0004889ecc442879c2477&amp;amp;ll=43.491425,11.02467&amp;amp;spn=0.914589,1.672668&amp;amp;t=h&amp;amp;source=embed" style="color:#0000FF;text-align:left"&gt;Directions to Asciano, Italy&lt;/a&gt; in a larger map&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Abbiamo deciso di trascorrere qualche giorno di vacanza in Toscana, approfittando dell'arrivo dell'estate e desiderosi di vivere insieme qualche momento di relax in posti fantastici. Con l'approccio tipico del "fai da te", i Sacchibelli hanno cosi' disegnato un percorso affascinante che li ha portati da Lucca a San Gimignano, poi a Siena (con tappe a Colle val D'Elsa, Certaldo e Monteriggioni), e quindi ad Asciano, passando per San Galgano e attraversando le affascinanti crete senesi.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TBABziZNO_I/AAAAAAAABns/Izf06JxOmmE/s1600/toscana2010_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TBABziZNO_I/AAAAAAAABns/Izf06JxOmmE/s320/toscana2010_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480882731427380210" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;&lt;center&gt;I Sacchibelli di fronte al Duomo di Lucca&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Piu' in dettaglio ecco le tappe:&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Lucca, alloggio presso &lt;a href="http://casa-alba.com/home_IT.htm"&gt;Casa Alba&lt;/a&gt;, di Marta, via Fillungo 142 - 55100 (LU).

Lucca si e' rivelata un vero gioiello, con la passeggiata lungo le mura davvero affascianante. Siena, con la sua celebre Piazza e lo straordinario Duomo e' meravigliosa, ricca di mille spunti, e tutti i paesini visitati, con i panorami mozzafiato delle crete senesi sono davvero qualcosa di indimenticabile. E poi San Galgano, e la spada nella roccia.... E' un tipo di vacanza che ci sentiamo di consigliare a chiunque.

It was a good idea, because we found very nice weather and this allowed us to relax a lot. First of all we stopped in Lucca, amazingly nice, with the historic walls all around. We found a cool place where to stay, just in the center, and this allowed us to live the city. We then went to San Gimignano, no words to describe how nice is that place. Going there we stopped in &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certaldo"&gt;Certaldo&lt;/a&gt;, following a suggestion from our friend Antonio. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TBAB2kRtXAI/AAAAAAAABoE/ihPGDxiA1OQ/s1600/toscana2010_4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TBAB2kRtXAI/AAAAAAAABoE/ihPGDxiA1OQ/s320/toscana2010_4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5480882783472409602" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;&lt;center&gt;Enrico in modalita' aperitivo in Piazza Napoleone (LU)&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/span&gt;From San Gimignano we moved to Siena, stopping in &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colle_di_Val_d%27Elsa"&gt;Colle val d'Elsa&lt;/a&gt; and in &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monteriggioni"&gt;Monteriggioni too&lt;/a&gt;. Something we can suggest to everyone because of the beauty of those places. Siena with his "Piazza del Campo" is something that cannot be described, but the Cathedral too was very impressive. The last day we drove through the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crete_Senesi"&gt;Crete Senesi&lt;/a&gt; a place that probably is unique in the world. Absolutely a must. We stopped in &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asciano"&gt;Asciano&lt;/A&gt;, but we experienced the most exciting sensations at &lt;a href="http://www.castellitoscani.com/sangalgano.htm"&gt;San Galgano&lt;/a&gt;, with its Abbey and history.&lt;br /&gt;Here are some more details about where we spent the nights, just as a suggestion for who wants follow our example.&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Lucca: &lt;a href="http://casa-alba.com/home_IT.htm"&gt;Casa Alba&lt;/a&gt;, di Marta, via Fillungo 142 - 55100 (LU).

Al di la' di quello che abbiamo mangiucchiato, la serata e' stata piu' che piacevole. Alice e' una bimba davvero bella e Alessandro e Luisa (in arte i Pesu) sono due amici davvero speciali. Grazie davvero per esserci venuti a trovare!!!&lt;hr&gt;Alessandro (Pesu), Luisa and their beautiful Alice just came at Sacchibelli's place for an appetizer yesterday. Alice is amazing, with her big blue eyes, and Alessandro and Luisa (the "Pesus") were really kind with us. After some appetizers we ended up with our famous "gelato al pistacchio" and, although I could seem a little bit sectarian, I have never tried a gelato so good like the one made by Silvia yesterday.

Da pedoni/ciclisti capita quindi spesso di imbattersi nell'invadenza e nella prepotenza di certi automobilisti. I piu' fastidiosi in assoluto sono coloro che parcheggiano dove non dovrebbero senza preoccuparsi del fatto che ostacolano il passaggio di pedoni, ciclisti e via dicendo. Molti marciapiedi pavesi sono regolarmente occupati da automobili indebitamente parcheggiate, senza che nessun provvedimento venga preso dalle autorita' competenti. Altra categoria di automobilisti particolarmente fastidiosa e' quella di chi usa indebitamente il permesso di portatore d'handicap. E, allo stesso modo, chi, non essendo portatore d'hanidcap, occupa indebitamente i posti riservati invece a chi portatore d'handicap lo e' per davvero. Tendenzialmente la Ferrari non e' un'auto che si immagina possa essere usata agevolmente da un portatore d'handicap. Inoltre, quella qui fotografata, non aveva nessun relativo permesso. Eppure risulta parcheggiata in spazi destinati a portatori d'handicap....&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAUdJPDslgI/AAAAAAAABnM/A60YMs2PrTk/s1600/DSC00963.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAUdJPDslgI/AAAAAAAABnM/A60YMs2PrTk/s320/DSC00963.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477816566264141314" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;As you know we prefer walking or riding the bicycle instead of using a car. And usually we use public transportation, if needed. So we don't like too much those car drivers that use to park everywhere, sidewalks and bike paths included, without considering that their cars can be a serious obstacle to people with disabilities. Nevertheless those drivers that take advantage of not regular handicap permits are particularly hateful. And similarly those drivers that, without any permits, park their cars (in this case a Ferrari!!!) where only driver with handicaps should park are not loved by Sacchibellis&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-2979849383990016975?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/2979849383990016975/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=2979849383990016975' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2979849383990016975'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2979849383990016975'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/06/parcheggio-rampante.html' title='Parcheggio rampante'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAUdJXNfAwI/AAAAAAAABnU/wItItB2sg5Y/s72-c/DSC00966.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1771953704641568327</id><published>2010-05-31T22:20:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-05-31T22:51:33.766+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Travels'/><title type='text'>A Venezia con i Billas</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAQu5oDgqDI/AAAAAAAABms/_ILEn3gGhnc/s1600/venezia_2010_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAQu5oDgqDI/AAAAAAAABms/_ILEn3gGhnc/s320/venezia_2010_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477554614328928306" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Marco e Anna, con il loro splendido bimbo Matteo sono nostri cari amici. Marco in particolare e' per me quasi un secondo fratello. Anche se ora vivono in California li sentiamo davvero vicini, e anche in questo periodo cosi' intenso e doloroso per noi, i loro pensieri, le loro preghiere e la sensazione di averli davvero al nostro fianco ci hanno aiutato a sostenerci e a ripartire. Oltre a riabbracciarli quando sono transitati da Pavia non abbiamo certo potuto rinunciare alla possibilita' di trascorrere con loro qualche momento insieme nella bellissima Venezia, citta' dove hanno deciso di trascorrere parte di queste loro ferie italiane. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAQu5zW6_sI/AAAAAAAABm0/Fhhzu6cPMXo/s1600/venezia_2010_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAQu5zW6_sI/AAAAAAAABm0/Fhhzu6cPMXo/s320/venezia_2010_2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477554617363136194" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;E cosi' ecco che i Sacchibelli hanno provato l'ebbrezza di un viaggio su un &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurostar_City_Italia"&gt;Frecciabianca&lt;/a&gt; di Trenitalia per approdare a Venezia. Freccia o non freccia, all'andata abbiamo accumulato 25 minuti di ritardo, mentre al ritorno tutto e' filato liscio. I due giorni trascorsi con Marco, Anna e Matteo sono stati davvero piacevoli, e oltremodo allietati dall'arrivo, sempre a Venezia, dei genitori di Anna, Joe e Holly, due splendide persone che ancora una volta si sono dimostrate davvero speciali. Grazie di cuore a tutti; Venezia ci ha regalato belle emozioni, ma l'averla visitata assieme a veri amici, una specie di grande famiglia, ha reso questi momenti indimenticabili.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAQu6F6rw2I/AAAAAAAABm8/NwmKaxHW66o/s1600/venezia_2010_3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAQu6F6rw2I/AAAAAAAABm8/NwmKaxHW66o/s320/venezia_2010_3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477554622344971106" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Marco and Anna, together with their beautiful baby Matteo are spending their last vacation days in Venice. So we were very happy when they invited us to join them. We thus went to Venice last Friday, and we spent two days together with Marco, Anna and Matteo, and also with Anna's parents, Joe and Holly. They were so kind with us.... and we had the sensation to live in a second family. We shared many moments together, and Venice was an amazing landscape. The dinner at Joe's and Holly's place was amazing, and also the lunch at &lt;a href="http://www.vinidagigio.com/"&gt;Vini da Gigio&lt;/a&gt; cannot be forgotten.

Dopo aver studiato il percorso sulle mappe e ascoltando consigli e suggerimenti, ha cosi' disegnato un percorso particolarmente suggestivo, con il transito sulle stesse colline che hanno visto nascere la leggenda di Fausto Coppi ed evitando il piu' possibile le strade trafficate. Il vento contrario ha reso piu' epica la cavalcata, ma alla fine i 145 km che ci separavano dal mare sono stati percorsi in poco piu' di 7 ore di pedalata effettiva, alla media di quasi 20 km/h, ragguardevole se si considera che abbiamo optato per le robuste ma pesanti mountain bike. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TALY3juKJKI/AAAAAAAABmM/aOkADjqy-l4/s1600/antonio_salita.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 239px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TALY3juKJKI/AAAAAAAABmM/aOkADjqy-l4/s320/antonio_salita.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477178545829192866" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Paesaggi incontaminati e suggestivi, l'ottima e affiatata compagnia, il sole e tanta voglia di pedalare con l'amata bicicletta hanno reso la giornata davvero speciale. E alla prossima occasione cercheremo di convincere anche Silvia a seguirci...

It was amazing and exciting. We studied a path full of suggestion, crossing the hills where the legend of Fausto Coppi started, and avoding as much as possible crowded roads. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAQmrw3VQnI/AAAAAAAABmk/ygveHAXDCMw/s1600/2010_05_26+profilo+altimetrico.png"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 253px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/TAQmrw3VQnI/AAAAAAAABmk/ygveHAXDCMw/s320/2010_05_26+profilo+altimetrico.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477545580082578034" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Weather was good but wind didn't help us. However we reached Genova in 10 hours (but roughly 7 hours of effective riding) and considering that we covered a distance of 145 km, I think that we did our best. Next time we will try to convince Silvia too to folow us. &lt;br /&gt;Thanks to Davide, Paolo and Antonio.

Praticamente dall'inizio della gravidanza. Poi il triste epilogo, e queste settimane di convalescenza in cui piano piano cerchiamo di rimetterci in sesto. Ma non appena e' arrivato l'ok dai medici, ecco che Silvia si e' reimpossessata della sua bici (prestata a Luisa, nel frattempo) e rivederla pedalare e' stato proprio un bel segnale. Come il suo sorriso...&lt;hr&gt;Her last bike ride was last August. Then during the pregnancy Silvia was not allowed to use her bicycle. Then you know what happened but week after week we are feeling better and we try to come back to life. And after Silvia's doctor gave her the permission to ride the bicycle, she didn't wait, as you can see in the picture.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-7646071084970832654?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/7646071084970832654/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=7646071084970832654' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7646071084970832654'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7646071084970832654'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/05/back-to-bike.html' title='Back to bike'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_mQExQl5eI/AAAAAAAABl0/0q354CM2Jcc/s72-c/silvia_bici_2010.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1824710954049231150</id><published>2010-05-19T08:03:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-05-19T08:10:04.944+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Sfogo</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_ONZlwAVZI/AAAAAAAABlk/JZyQPIPUgZg/s1600/IMG_2012.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_ONZlwAVZI/AAAAAAAABlk/JZyQPIPUgZg/s320/IMG_2012.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472873442954990994" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I Sacchibelli hanno ripreso la loro attività "mondana" grazie all'affetto dei vari amici e questo è davvero un toccasana per l'animo sconfortato di questo periodo.&lt;br /&gt;A Silvia pero' non è permesso riprendere la propria vita perchè la legge italiana le impone, senza possibilità di rinunciare a tale "diritto", di rispettare i tre mesi di maternità obbligatoria anche se Irene non è qui. Qual è il senso di questa imposizione? Per una persona è meglio occupare la mente su un lavoro, o restare a casa a sentirsi inutile e vuota o ancora andare in giro e vedere pance, passeggini e vestitini per bambini che spuntano da ogni dove? Il dover passare a casa quasi otto dei nove mesi di attesa per via della gravidanza complicata è stato difficile e davvero il telelavoro avrebbe aiutato, ma l'azienda non lo permette. Almeno c'era una speranza, un progetto meraviglioso che si chiamava Irene, ma ora? Ora ci sono solo tanta tristezza, i postumi di un parto complicato, la prospettiva di un'operazione e la consapevolezza che in questo paese il bene della persona è sempre meno importante. E per giunta continua a piovere...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_OOoxl3jAI/AAAAAAAABls/Y_a_MvTiOHg/s1600/pioggia.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_OOoxl3jAI/AAAAAAAABls/Y_a_MvTiOHg/s320/pioggia.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472874803343363074" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sacchibelli are back to life thanks to their wonderful friends but Silvia cannot start her real life since the Italian law states that, even if her baby is no more here, a mother (with the kind of work contract Silvia has) must stay at home from work for three months after childbirth and there is no way to change this condition. What's the meaning of this? For Silvia would be better to go to work instead of staying at home feeling useless and empty. Stay at home for almost eight of the nine months because of the difficult pregnancy was really hard, but the company doesn't allow home working. At least there was a hope, an extraordinary project called Irene, but now? Now there's only a lot of sadness, problems related to the difficult childbirth, the prospective of a surgery and the consciousness that in this country right things for people are more and more unimportant. And in addition it's always raining...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1824710954049231150?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1824710954049231150/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1824710954049231150' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1824710954049231150'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1824710954049231150'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/05/sfogo.html' title='Sfogo'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_ONZlwAVZI/AAAAAAAABlk/JZyQPIPUgZg/s72-c/IMG_2012.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6622937140239243207</id><published>2010-05-18T07:49:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-05-18T08:09:31.032+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Un olandese (?) a Pavia</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_I9GUVhXXI/AAAAAAAABlc/x3K05j9DUQ0/s1600/davide_san_tommaso.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_I9GUVhXXI/AAAAAAAABlc/x3K05j9DUQ0/s320/davide_san_tommaso.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472503675956059506" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Il nostro carissimo amico Davide, ormai emigrato in Olanda, e' di passaggio in questi giorni a Pavia e l'occasione era troppo ghiotta per non organizzare una birra in compagnia. Ci siamo cosi' ritrovati al San Tommaso e abbiamo trascorso una serata davvero piacevole. Anche perche' Davide e' decisamente un personaggio, e la sua presenza ha saputo attrarre parecchi amici. Ed e' buffo pensare che persone che lavoravano per 3 ditte estremamenti concorrenti (STM, Broadcom e Marvell), una volta smessi i panni del lavoro, si divertono in compagnia di fronte a una buona birra.&lt;hr&gt;Our friend Davide, who moved to the Netherlands one year and a half ago, is back in Pavia in these days. So we decided to meet together with him and many other friends to drink a beer together, as we used to do when he was here. It was a really nice evening, also because Davide is a very funny guy, and a true friend too. And who care if around the same table there were many people working for different companies (STM, Broadcom and Marvell) in competition between them?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-6622937140239243207?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/6622937140239243207/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=6622937140239243207' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6622937140239243207'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6622937140239243207'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/05/un-olandese-pavia.html' title='Un olandese (?) a Pavia'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_I9GUVhXXI/AAAAAAAABlc/x3K05j9DUQ0/s72-c/davide_san_tommaso.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-8900738827257904257</id><published>2010-05-16T19:29:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-05-16T19:59:36.654+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>I Billa's</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_A8lzX7wcI/AAAAAAAABlU/IruRgC5roec/s1600/billas_2010_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_A8lzX7wcI/AAAAAAAABlU/IruRgC5roec/s320/billas_2010_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471940167398572482" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;E' ormai un appuntamento quasi fisso. Nel 2007 erano venuti il 30 maggio (vedi &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2007/05/billa-e-anna.html"&gt; qui&lt;/a&gt;) mentre nel 2009 era stato il 12, sempre di maggio (vedi &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/05/billa-anna-e-matteo.html"&gt; qui&lt;/a&gt;); l'arrivo dei Billa (Marco, Anna e Matteo) dalla California e' stato festeggiato anche quest'anno a casa di Chicca e Andrea e ancora una volta e' stata l'occasione per rivedere tanti cari amici. I ricordi che condividiamo ci legheranno per sempre e anche se il tempo passa, si diventa grandi, succedono cose belle e purtroppo anche brutte, poter riabbracciare amici speciali e' sempre un momento di gioia vera. Grazie davvero a tutti voi per il bellissimo pomeriggio.&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_A8lumAGfI/AAAAAAAABlM/s1dd5j4f7Z0/s1600/billas_2010_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_A8lumAGfI/AAAAAAAABlM/s1dd5j4f7Z0/s320/billas_2010_2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471940166115400178" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;It is a classic appointment that happens almost every May. In 2007 the "Billas" came on May the 30th (see &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2007/05/billa-e-anna.html"&gt; here&lt;/a&gt;), while in 2009 we met them on May the 12th (see &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/05/billa-anna-e-matteo.html"&gt; here&lt;/a&gt;). So, today (May the 16th), we went at Enrica's and Andrea's place to see them again. Matteo is incredibly tall considering that he is only 2 years old, and it was really nice to see again true friends like Marco and Anna, and also all the other friends that joined this meeting. Time flies and year after year we are becoming old. We were so young when we started our friendship... But to have true friends so close to us in this moment is the best medicine we can find. Thanks to everyone for the beautiful moments spent together...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8900738827257904257?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8900738827257904257/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8900738827257904257' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8900738827257904257'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8900738827257904257'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/05/i-billas.html' title='I Billa&apos;s'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S_A8lzX7wcI/AAAAAAAABlU/IruRgC5roec/s72-c/billas_2010_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6349471115443664704</id><published>2010-05-15T13:30:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-05-15T13:46:24.648+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>A nice evening</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S-6XMHGI--I/AAAAAAAABlE/ACiASwefqTo/s1600/san_michele.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S-6XMHGI--I/AAAAAAAABlE/ACiASwefqTo/s320/san_michele.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471476831620758498" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spesso le cose improvvisate sono quelle che riescono meglio. Cosi' ieri sera, quando alle 8 l'ottimo Ivan ci ha telefonato proponendoci una pizza assieme alla mitica Gabry, non abbiamo avuto molte esitazioni. E nel giro di mezzora (circa) ci siamo lanciati tutti assieme verso la pizzeria &lt;a href="http://www.ilmangione.it/scheda.php?id_rist=13007"&gt;"Lo Sciabecco"&lt;/a&gt;, una delle nostre preferite (a proposito, secondo voi dove si mangia la migliore pizza qui a Pavia?). Segnalo a tutti l'ottima pizza affumicata e speck, ma la cosa piu' piacevole e' stato trascorrere una bella serata assieme a due cari amici. Dopo la pizza non poteva mancare la sosta da Cesare, in corso Garibaldi, con successivo autoscatto di fronte alla splendida Chiesa di &lt;a href="http://www.sanmichele-pavia.it/"&gt;San Michele&lt;/a&gt;. Che dire, grazie Ivan e Gabry per la bella serata. E alla prossima.&lt;hr&gt;Yesterday Ivan called us proposing a pizza together with Gabry. How to say no to good pizza and, above all, to good friends? So, in few minutes, we were ready to be picked-up by them and we went together to &lt;a href="http://www.ilmangione.it/scheda.php?id_rist=13007"&gt;"Lo Sciabecco&lt;/a&gt;, one of our preferred pizzerias here around (let's try a survey: where is the best pizza @ Pavia?). After the pizza ("affumicata and speck" is absolutely a must), we stopped @ Cesare for a classic ice cream and then we took the picture you see in front of the wonderful &lt;a href="http://www.sanmichele-pavia.it/"&gt;San Michele&lt;/a&gt; church. Thanks Ivan and Gabry for the lovely evening spent together.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-6349471115443664704?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/6349471115443664704/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=6349471115443664704' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6349471115443664704'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6349471115443664704'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/05/nice-evening.html' title='A nice evening'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S-6XMHGI--I/AAAAAAAABlE/ACiASwefqTo/s72-c/san_michele.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-3451977749603065197</id><published>2010-05-10T08:56:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-05-10T09:06:47.733+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Pomodori transgenici?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S-e-RiYjB-I/AAAAAAAABk8/QWnHnTSLoHc/s1600/DSC00960.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S-e-RiYjB-I/AAAAAAAABk8/QWnHnTSLoHc/s320/DSC00960.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469549480961574882" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Benche' la primavera sia per ora piuttosto umida e poco soleggiata, stiamo comunque lavorando per abbellire con bei fiori i nostri balconi. Cosi' ieri abbiamo visitato un garden center nei dintorni di Pavia alla ricerca di qualche bel fiore da aggiungere ai nostri gia' stupendi gerani e agli ibischi. Per ora non abbiamo trovato nulla, ma abbiamo notato un tipo di pomodoro evidentemente transgenico. La vedo dura farci il sugo....&lt;hr&gt;Although spring time here seems to be particularly wet, we always hope that sunny will come back and we are working to make our balcony as nice as possible. We already have "gerani" and "ibischi", but we are looking also for something new. SO yesterday we visited a garden center here around but we didn't fine anything. However it was funny to note an evidently "transgenic" variety of "san marzano" tomatoes.... Let's hope that it is just a mistake...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-3451977749603065197?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/3451977749603065197/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=3451977749603065197' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3451977749603065197'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3451977749603065197'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/05/pomodori-transgenici.html' title='Pomodori transgenici?'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S-e-RiYjB-I/AAAAAAAABk8/QWnHnTSLoHc/s72-c/DSC00960.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-5563857608244101988</id><published>2010-05-07T08:35:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-05-07T09:01:15.577+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Riunione di classe</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S-PIs_RjzCI/AAAAAAAABk0/R2JCXyx4iIk/s1600/DSC00957.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S-PIs_RjzCI/AAAAAAAABk0/R2JCXyx4iIk/s320/DSC00957.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468435047782796322" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ieri sera un gruppo di ex compagni di classe della componente maschile di casa Sacchibelli ha organizzato un piccolo raduno per mangiare una pizza insieme, rivedersi, chiacchierare, aggiornarci e forse anche distrarci. Io e Silvia abbiamo apprezzato molto, e ancora una volta ringraziamo tutti (massi', anche l'interista Matteo) per il calore e l'affetto che ancora una volta ci hanno testimoniato. Certo la foto e' veramente di bassa qualita' e accidentalmente (argh) ho tagliato Silvia, ma la serata e' stata piu' che piacevole. Certo, se poi ripenso che ci siamo conosciuti ormai 25 anni fa quando si era ancora ragazzini, in quella mitica 1C del liceo Copernico....&lt;hr&gt;Yesterday few high school mates (of the male component of sacchibelli family) invited us for a pizza. It was a very nice idea and we thank them because of their warm friendship and kindness. It was a way to talk each other, to update about how life is going, to pull Matteo's leg (he was the only F.C.

Abbiamo cosi' prontamente aggiornato i PC di casa e linux, in questa distribuzione cosi' user friendly, si dimostra un sistema operativo davvero performante, oltre che affascinante. Spesso chi lo critica enfatizza i problemi relativi al riconoscimento hardware e la mancanza di driver, che sono invece i punti di forza dei sistemi Microsoft. Ma i tempi cambiano e a volte capita che siano i sistemi windows a fare i capricci. Come riportato nella chat skype che abbiamo avuto col nostro amico Gianfranco (Francesco...).&lt;hr&gt; Few days ago the new Ubuntu (&lt;a href="http://www.ubuntu.com"&gt;www.ubuntu.com&lt;/a&gt;) release (10.04, lucid lynx) has been released and we already installed it on our PC. It works pretty well, and it is really cool to have an open source system working in a such wonderful way. In the past many people used to criticize Linux because of driver issue, while used to empashized the "simplicity" of Windows system. Linux is for geek only was a common statement, while Windows it's easier to be used. Times are changing, as you can read from the chat we had with our friend Gianfranco (Francesco), who was using his XP based desktop (while we were running our brand new lucid lynx)&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[7:32:43 PM] Francesco Gatta: ciao, come state?&lt;br /&gt;[7:33:12 PM] Enrico Sacchi: abbiamo 3 nuovi linux funzionanti sui 3 pc di casa....&lt;br /&gt;[7:33:20 PM] Enrico Sacchi: almeno questa e' una buona notizia :-)&lt;br /&gt;[7:33:24 PM] Enrico Sacchi: noi stiamo relativametne bene&lt;br /&gt;[7:33:33 PM] Enrico Sacchi: meglio di quanto potessimo pensare&lt;br /&gt;[7:34:03 PM] Francesco Gatta: noi invece avevamo 3 computers e adesso...&lt;br /&gt;[7:34:35 PM] Francesco Gatta: questo e' l'ultimo...speriamo soppravviva&lt;br /&gt;[7:34:45 PM] Enrico Sacchi: e' perche vi ostinate  a usare windows....&lt;br /&gt;[7:34:56 PM] Enrico Sacchi: e' un software cattivo, che rovina l'hardware :-)&lt;br /&gt;[7:35:23 PM] Francesco Gatta: meglio che passar nottate a far funzionare lynus&lt;br /&gt;[7:35:35 PM] Enrico Sacchi: www.ubuntu.com&lt;br /&gt;[7:35:42 PM] Enrico Sacchi: si installa che e' un piacere :-)&lt;br /&gt;[7:35:53 PM] Enrico Sacchi: gratis, cool,&lt;br /&gt;[7:36:13 PM] Francesco Gatta: si puo' usare ubuntu con windows?&lt;br /&gt;[7:36:34 PM] Enrico Sacchi: si si puo', e' il primo passo installare sul pc sia windows che ubuntu...&lt;br /&gt;[7:36:44 PM] Enrico Sacchi: quello successivo e' eliminare windows... come ho fatto io :-)&lt;br /&gt;[7:36:54 PM] Enrico Sacchi: silvia invece resiste con tutti e due&lt;br /&gt;[7:36:59 PM] Enrico Sacchi: ma usa solo ubuntu....&lt;br /&gt;[7:37:18 PM] Francesco Gatta: ok, mi sa che seguiremo la saggezza di Silvia allora&lt;br /&gt;[7:37:27 PM] Enrico Sacchi: se ti vaprovo a chiamarti cosi' vedo se funziona microfonoe video&lt;br /&gt;[7:37:35 PM] Enrico Sacchi: avendolo appena installato non sono cosi' sicuro&lt;br /&gt;[7:37:46 PM] Francesco Gatta: vado a prendere la webcam&lt;br /&gt;[7:37:50 PM] Enrico Sacchi: beh&lt;br /&gt;[7:37:52 PM] Enrico Sacchi: ma faniente&lt;br /&gt;[7:37:55 PM] Enrico Sacchi: anche senza webcam&lt;br /&gt;[7:38:10 PM] Enrico Sacchi: tanto, a meno che non ci siano anna o giulia...&lt;br /&gt;[7:38:17 PM] Enrico Sacchi: non e' che lo spettaoclo li' sia interessante&lt;br /&gt;[7:39:55 PM] Enrico Sacchi: aspetta&lt;br /&gt;[7:40:04 PM] Enrico Sacchi: sono al telefono&lt;br /&gt;[7:41:50 PM] Enrico Sacchi: mi dice "remote sound problem"&lt;br /&gt;[7:41:59 PM] Enrico Sacchi: remote sta a significare che sono tuoi problemi :-)&lt;br /&gt;[7:42:02 PM] Enrico Sacchi: prova a chiamarmi tu&lt;br /&gt;[7:47:30 PM] Francesco Gatta: aspetta che aggiusto&lt;br /&gt;[7:47:40 PM] Enrico Sacchi: no comment....&lt;br /&gt;[7:47:48 PM] Francesco Gatta: si e' bloccato tutto.

Certo lo avremmo immaginato un po' diverso, ma bisogna guardare al futuro, e cercare di pensare positivo. Cosi' devo dire che Silvia e' riuscita davvero a sorprendermi con un regalo tanto bello quanto inaspettato: la stupenda t-shirt che vedete nella foto.

For sure the atmosphere is really different from what we had expected, but we have to look at the future and to think positive. So I was very surprised by the amazingly nice gift I received from Silvia: a lovely t-shirt with a lovely message (you can read it on the picture). And probably you can also note the amazing strawberry yogurt cake she prepared for my birthday.

Già ci immaginavamo alle prese con urla, pianti e pannolini.&lt;br /&gt;Fisicamente le ferite guariscono, moralmente rimangono, ahimè per sempre, nell'anima.&lt;br /&gt;Avere tanti amici che si sono stretti intorno a noi, con delicatezza e discrezione, ci ha aiutato tanto e quindi grazie a tutti, davvero di cuore.&lt;br /&gt;E' giunto il momento di mettere da parte i nostri sogni di genitori, di ritirare i vestitini, di portare il passeggino nel solaio polveroso e di ritornare alla vita che con pazienza ci aspetta fuori dal nostro guscio di dolore.&lt;br /&gt;Saremo un po' "ammaccati", ma sappiamo che quello stesso amore che ci unisce e che ci ha donato Irene è ancora qui con noi e, col tempo, saprà donarci la speranza della gioia e di una nuova vita.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are hard times.&lt;br /&gt;Irene is not with us and silence is not what we where prepared for. &lt;br /&gt;Physically we are recovering from wounds, unfortunately, morally, we will have scars on our soul forever.&lt;br /&gt;We would like to thank, from the deep of our heart, all the friends that have been so close to us with wonderful tact and delicacy. You have helped us so much.&lt;br /&gt;Now is time to take apart our parental dreams, to remove baby clothes, to bring the stroller upstairs in the dusty attic and to come back to life that, with a lot of patience, is waiting for us outside our shell of sorrow.&lt;br /&gt;We will be a little bit "bruised", but we know that the same love which brings us together and gave us Irene is still here and, with time, will give us again the hope of joy and of a new life.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8245331565866133649?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8245331565866133649/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8245331565866133649' title='3 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8245331565866133649'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8245331565866133649'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/04/grazie.html' title='Grazie'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S9GEOzSCH3I/AAAAAAAABkc/W8Y76Y2PmWM/s72-c/Calvin-Hobbes1.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-8396511070440813677</id><published>2010-04-15T09:22:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-04-15T10:41:18.719+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Irene</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S8bNVM9hGUI/AAAAAAAABkU/Yi1byb1UxWg/s1600/Irene.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S8bNVM9hGUI/AAAAAAAABkU/Yi1byb1UxWg/s320/Irene.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5460277362373499202" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;La nostra Irene ora è l'angelo piu' splendente del Paradiso.&lt;hr&gt;Our Irene is now the brightest angel in Heaven.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8396511070440813677?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8396511070440813677/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8396511070440813677' title='6 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8396511070440813677'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8396511070440813677'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/04/irene.html' title='Irene'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S8bNVM9hGUI/AAAAAAAABkU/Yi1byb1UxWg/s72-c/Irene.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1950836759249364802</id><published>2010-04-09T16:10:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-04-09T16:13:35.186+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Waiting for...

Non potendo pero' cimentarci nel classico giro in bici di pasquetta, ci siamo concessi una tranquilla passeggiata, arrivando fino al Ticino. Che dire, tra i (pochi) turisti, ci siamo cosi' goduti la nostra citta' che, in giorni cosi' particolari, riesce a essere anche particolarmente piacevole e affascinante. E abbiamo anche scorto una simpatica nutria, comodamente rilassata nella sua casetta, in modalita' ancora "quasi" letargica...&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S7nxXGqHRCI/AAAAAAAABj8/J6dJprSIv9k/s1600/pasquetta_nutria.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S7nxXGqHRCI/AAAAAAAABj8/J6dJprSIv9k/s320/pasquetta_nutria.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5456657802762601506" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Yesterday it was a really rainy day, but the Monday after Easter, usually called "pasquetta", was particularly warm and sunny.

La piccola Irene, nella pancia di Silvia, sembra non avere alcuna fretta. Cosi' riusciamo a concederci dei "moderati" eventi mondani. Ieri in particolare e' stato bello rivedere l'ottima Federica (zia Fede) di passaggio dalle regioni teutoniche, in compagnia dell'altrettanto ottima Alice (zia Ali). E l'occasione di fare quattro chiacchiere in amicizia e' stata accompagnata dall'opportunita' di mangiarsi un buon gelato (accompagnato dal celebre zabaione) da Cesare. Certo, per Silvia lo zabaione (e pure il gelato) e' rimasto un miraggio, e si e' dovuta accontentare di un caffe' d'orzo... Ma ormai siamo agli sgoccioli, e presto anche lei potra' recuperare...&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S7co58LhjNI/AAAAAAAABjs/pdJ5pBjoZ4A/s1600/silvia_zabaione.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S7co58LhjNI/AAAAAAAABjs/pdJ5pBjoZ4A/s320/silvia_zabaione.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455874449454763218" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Here everything is going well enough, and Irene does not seem to champ at the bit and she stays inside Silvia's belly. So we can also attend some "moderate" social event; yesterday we met our friend Federica (from Germany), now called zia Fede, togehter with Alice (zia Ali) and we enjoyed the famous "gelato" with zabaione at Cesare's. Unfortunately Silvia had to avoid both gelato and zabaione and she tried a barley coffee... But quite soon she will have a lot of opportunities to recover...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-513582390406398085?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/513582390406398085/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=513582390406398085' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/513582390406398085'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/513582390406398085'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/04/una-visita-sorpresa.html' title='Una visita a sorpresa'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S7co6Q9u0PI/AAAAAAAABj0/wbpxi1ystTw/s72-c/gelato_cesare_fede_ali.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-8401978012265993584</id><published>2010-03-28T13:17:00.006+01:00</published><updated>2010-03-28T19:43:06.425+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Primavera, finalmente</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S69ydGm67dI/AAAAAAAABjk/_HPPw9vfEzY/s1600/primavera_2010.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S69ydGm67dI/AAAAAAAABjk/_HPPw9vfEzY/s320/primavera_2010.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5453703518084591058" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Un tempo era l'arrivo delle rondini a sancire l'inizio della primavera. Ora di rondini ce ne sono poche purtroppo, e qui dai Sacchibelli si usano nuovi criteri per stabilire la fine dell'inverno. Il segnale piu' evidente e' quando i Sacchibelli inaugurano la stagione dei pranzi sul balcone. E oggi cio' e' accaduto. Se poi si aggiunge che abbiamo anche cominciato (in modo intenso peraltro) la produzione di gelato, ecco, allora si puo' stare sicuri: la primavera' e' arrivata anche qui. E le tartarughe del giardino sottostante confermano cominciando a uscire dal letargo invernale...&lt;hr&gt;&lt;object width="362" height="300" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-d567810b5f0fc512" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"&gt;&lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"&gt;&lt;param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://v14.nonxt4.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3Dd567810b5f0fc512%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1330373650%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D46799CB07F5DCE6811ED0A96C5541FA9F0055B21.6D8AF79E3010C48479F8A822E6E9ACCD5072D9F9%26key%3Dck1&amp;amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3Dd567810b5f0fc512%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DFhe7CFZdMlAQ3Rb3yJY41wGSNsw&amp;amp;autoplay=0&amp;amp;ps=blogger"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"width="362" height="300" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"flashvars="flvurl=http://v14.nonxt4.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3Dd567810b5f0fc512%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1330373650%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D46799CB07F5DCE6811ED0A96C5541FA9F0055B21.6D8AF79E3010C48479F8A822E6E9ACCD5072D9F9%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3Dd567810b5f0fc512%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DFhe7CFZdMlAQ3Rb3yJY41wGSNsw&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"allowFullScreen="true" /&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once upon a time swallows sighting was synonym of Spring time. Unfortunately there are few swallows around here so you have to take care of different signals. At Sacchibelli's place the most significant one is when they have lunch on the balcony. And this has happened just today. Moreover today they started their famous "gelato" production too, so you can be sure that Spring time is at the end arrived here too. And turtles living in the down stairs garden agree, leaving their long hibernation...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8401978012265993584?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8401978012265993584/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8401978012265993584' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8401978012265993584'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8401978012265993584'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/03/primavera-finalmente.html' title='Primavera, finalmente'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S69ydGm67dI/AAAAAAAABjk/_HPPw9vfEzY/s72-c/primavera_2010.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1017698972490026174</id><published>2010-03-23T23:31:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-03-23T23:55:44.466+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Consegna a domicilio</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S6lGoMp29xI/AAAAAAAABjc/WMJ6l3zzzfA/s1600-h/sacchibelli_binaschini_contafamily.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S6lGoMp29xI/AAAAAAAABjc/WMJ6l3zzzfA/s320/sacchibelli_binaschini_contafamily.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5451966480314201874" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Dovendo comprare un sostituto per un alimentatore di un hard disk esterno, e dovendolo fare via internet, ci siamo scontrati con il problema delle spese di spedizione (e dello strano cambio dollaro-euro). Il &lt;a href="http://www.lacie.com/it/products/product.htm?pid=11238"&gt;LaCie Power Supply 710449E&lt;/a&gt; sul sito italiano della &lt;a href="http://www.lacie.com/it/index.htm"&gt;Lacie&lt;/a&gt; viene infatti proposto a 34.90 euro, mentre sul sito americano lo stesso oggetto, qui chiamato &lt;a href=http://www.lacie.com/us/products/product.htm?pid=11238"&gt;LaCie Power Supply 800040&lt;/a&gt; costa solo 19.90 dollari. Decisamente piu' conveniente acquistare sul sito americano, specie se si dispone di un servizio di consegna a domicilio che, in cambio di una buona pizza, permette di avere il suddetto alimentatore a casa in tempi ragionevoli e, soprattutto, consente di organizzare una bella rimpatriata con vecchi amici. Cosi' abbiamo optato per questa opzione e ieri l'ottimo Matteo di &lt;a href="http://www.contafamily.com"&gt;Contafamily&lt;/a&gt;, di passaggio da queste parti, ci ha portato l'alimentatore e ci ha dato lo spunto per riunire intorno alla tavola dei sacchibelli i mitici binaschini (Enea, Ilaria e Greg...). Che dire, serata speciale, bella e intensa, da ripetere quanto prima anche con il resto della &lt;a href="http://www.contafamily.com"&gt;Contafamily&lt;/a&gt;&lt;hr&gt;We had a failure at the power supply of an external hard disk and we had to buy it from the manufacturer website. We thus noted that it is very convenient to buy the &lt;a href=http://www.lacie.com/us/products/product.htm?pid=11238"&gt;LaCie Power Supply 800040&lt;/a&gt;from the US website (19.9 dollars); the same object is offered at 34.90 euro if you try to buy it from the italian website. We thus preferred to pay only 19.90 dollars, without any additional expedition cost, thanks to our friend Matteo (from &lt;a href="http://www.contafamily.com"&gt;Contafamily&lt;/a&gt;) who delivered at our place the hard disk power supply. Moreover this gave us the occasion to invite at our place the Binaschini too (Enea, Ilaria and Greg...), and we spent a really nice evening all together....

Giuseppe vende formaggi di svariate qualita', provenienti da praticamente tutte le regioni italiane (e non solo). A prezzi piu' che onesti. Ragion per cui il suo banchetto e' letteralmente preso d'assalto sia il mercoledi' che, soprattutto, il sabato. La raspa lodigiana e' il suo classico, ma noi ci sbizzariamo sempre, prediligendo formaggi di capra e di pecora. Impareggiabili sono anche le sue provole affumicate... che pero' mostrano qualche "incertezza" geografica... Sono infatti provole salernitane prodotte....a Gorgonzola. Che, come nome per piazzarci un caseificio, e' decisamente adatto. Ma e' un po' lombardo... Poco male, la bonta' delle provole compensa l'incertezza sulla loro provenienza...&lt;hr&gt;We love almost all kind of cheeses. And we usually buy them at Giuseppe's cheese stand. You can find him, his brother and some co-worker on Saturday (and on Wednesday) at Piazza Petrarca local market. He sells chese from almost all the italian regions at a reasonable price. Raspa (from Lodi, where he comes from) is probably his peculiarity, but we usually enjoy sheep and goat cheeses. We love also "provola affumicata", although its origin is a little bit strange. It is supposed to be from Salerno, but the dairy is at Gorgonzola. Gorgonzola is obviously the famous cheese, but also a place close to Milano (and then far enough from Salerno). However, who cares? This provola is amazingly good, so, don't worry....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-2928119902406672992?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/2928119902406672992/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=2928119902406672992' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2928119902406672992'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2928119902406672992'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/03/formaggi-e-geografia.html' title='Formaggi e geografia'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S6an6TXh_7I/AAAAAAAABjU/bcdX_Cg7bGs/s72-c/provola_salernitana.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-3826583584947651895</id><published>2010-03-14T11:28:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-03-14T11:44:28.349+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Ciambelline allo yogurt</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5y84aiKLAI/AAAAAAAABjE/Lvf0P1nrTXs/s1600-h/ciambelline_yogurt_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5y84aiKLAI/AAAAAAAABjE/Lvf0P1nrTXs/s320/ciambelline_yogurt_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448437326592748546" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Benche' questo non sia un food-blog capita spesso di postare qualche interessante esperimento culinario (solitamente proposto da Silvia...). Cosi' non potevamo non menzionare le ciambelline allo yogurt che vedete nella foto. Sono decisamente fotogeniche, ma la ricetta necessita ancora un po' di tuning (non preoccupatevi, ci sono gia' io come volontario per testare i vari esperimenti...), per cui non entriamo nei dettagli. Ma l'idea era preparare qualcosa di sfizioso per merenda, dolce ma non troppo, in modo che anche Silvia potesse gustarli, senza violare (troppo) l'embargo sui dolci in gravidanza... E direi che l'obbiettivo e' stato raggiunto. Il ripieno in questo caso era una crema al latte, ma evidentemente ci si puo' scatenare con la fantasia...

So we have to show you also these lovely "ciambelline allo yougurt". They are cuter than good, but the starting point is satisfactory enough. And the target for this experiment was to prepare a special cake without too much sugar, so that Silvia could eat it . We filled them with milk cream but, obviously, there is space for fantasy. Do you have any suggestion about that? Once the recipe will be tuned, we will post it (and in the meanwhile I will have the responsibility for testing next experiments :-))&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-3826583584947651895?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/3826583584947651895/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=3826583584947651895' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3826583584947651895'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3826583584947651895'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/03/ciambelline-allo-yogurt.html' title='Ciambelline allo yogurt'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5y84aiKLAI/AAAAAAAABjE/Lvf0P1nrTXs/s72-c/ciambelline_yogurt_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-4666821377941836229</id><published>2010-03-10T08:53:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-03-10T09:10:36.824+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='weather'/><title type='text'>Il clima pavese....</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5dRIM-N55I/AAAAAAAABi8/MYfIZizPai4/s1600-h/DSC00929.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5dRIM-N55I/AAAAAAAABi8/MYfIZizPai4/s320/DSC00929.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5446911475690891154" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oggi e' una splendida giornata di quasi primavera, e come al solito, sono andato al lavoro in bicicletta.....&lt;hr&gt;We are almost in springtime, and, as usual, I went to the office by bike....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-4666821377941836229?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/4666821377941836229/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=4666821377941836229' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4666821377941836229'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/4666821377941836229'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/03/il-clima-pavese.html' title='Il clima pavese....'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5dRIM-N55I/AAAAAAAABi8/MYfIZizPai4/s72-c/DSC00929.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-7913593580078621036</id><published>2010-03-07T20:54:00.006+01:00</published><updated>2010-03-07T21:15:28.692+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Torta ricciolina</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5QIUWvDDiI/AAAAAAAABis/ah8MCPflM9g/s1600-h/torta_ricciolina_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5QIUWvDDiI/AAAAAAAABis/ah8MCPflM9g/s320/torta_ricciolina_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445986995191090722" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Qualche week-end fa siamo stati invitati da Luca e Daniela per una merenda a casa loro. E' stato un momento molto piacevole che, purtroppo, ci siamo dimenticati di immortalare. Oltre che dalla piacevole chiacchierata con Luca e Daniela, il pomeriggio e' stato "illuminato" da due ottime torte. Una, preparata da Silvia e ispirata alla celebre ricetta di Emiko, di cui gia' abbiamo parlato su questo blog (vedi &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2007/08/la-ricetta-di-emiko.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;), e l'altra preparata da Luca. Una torta anch'essa a base di ricotta, ma con un ripieno di amaretti. Una torta bella per come si presentava e buonissima. Luca e' stato molto gentile a passarci la ricetta di questa torta, detta ricciolina, almeno nella tradizione della sua famiglia. E Silvia, che pure non puo' mangiare dolci in questa fase, si e' cosi' cimentata. E bisogna dire che le e' venuta particolarmente bene. Manca la foto di quella di Luca, ma almeno quella preparata da Silvia e' stata immortalata. E concorderete con me che e' molto bella... (per la bonta', fidatevi, e' davvero eccezionale).&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5QIUDxHlDI/AAAAAAAABik/bOwnpXdOjdg/s1600-h/torta_ricciolina_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5QIUDxHlDI/AAAAAAAABik/bOwnpXdOjdg/s320/torta_ricciolina_2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445986990099502130" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5QIUlMwl_I/AAAAAAAABi0/pMAsmPQ8lsc/s1600-h/torta_ricciolina_3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5QIUlMwl_I/AAAAAAAABi0/pMAsmPQ8lsc/s320/torta_ricciolina_3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445986999073806322" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Few week-ends ago we were invited at Luca's and Daniela's place. We spent a really nice afternoon together. We talked a lot, we visited their nice house and, obviously, we also had an afternoon snack. Silvia prepared her famous &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2007/08/la-ricetta-di-emiko.html"&gt;"ricotta cake"&lt;/a&gt;, inspired by Emiko's recipe, while Luca prepared a different ricotta based cake, traditionally called (among his family) "torta ricciolina". Unfortunately we didn't take any picture, but his cake was great too, and he was very kind with us sharing its recipe.... And obviously, although she cannot eat any sweets during this period, Silvia tried to replicate Luca's cake. And she was great. We also took some pictures, and probably you agree with me about the beauty of this cake... And about the fact that it tastes greatly, trust me :-)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-7913593580078621036?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/7913593580078621036/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=7913593580078621036' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7913593580078621036'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7913593580078621036'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/03/torta-ricciolina.html' title='Torta ricciolina'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S5QIUWvDDiI/AAAAAAAABis/ah8MCPflM9g/s72-c/torta_ricciolina_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-3942924460641172601</id><published>2010-02-28T11:19:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-02-28T11:36:08.063+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fai da te'/><title type='text'>Il potere delle noci</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S4pGskscF5I/AAAAAAAABic/ZRdF7jKh78Y/s1600-h/prima_dopo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 160px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S4pGskscF5I/AAAAAAAABic/ZRdF7jKh78Y/s320/prima_dopo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443240831208920978" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/"&gt;Apartment therapy&lt;/a&gt; e' un interessante sito web che propone originali soluzioni di design e arredamento. Silvia ne e' un'accanita lettrice. Cosi', pochi giorni fa, e' incappata in un &lt;a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/sf/how-to/how-to-cover-up-dings-in-wooden-furniture-home-hacks-109198"&gt;post&lt;/a&gt; piuttosto curioso. Veniva infatti spiegato come per coprire graffi su mobili di legno sia sufficiente strofinare una noce sui graffi stessi. Benche' un po' scettici, abbiamo provato a seguire il consiglio per le (orride) porte interne del nostro appartamento. E qui potete ammirare l'impressionante risultato!!!!&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/"&gt;Apartment therapy&lt;/a&gt; is an interesting web site full of smart insights about furniture, design and almost everything about houses. Their motto is "&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;saving the world, one room at a time&lt;/span&gt;" and it perfectly explains the content of the website. Few days ago Silvia found a quite curious &lt;a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/sf/how-to/how-to-cover-up-dings-in-wooden-furniture-home-hacks-109198"&gt;post&lt;/a&gt; about how to cover up dings in wooden furniture, and considering that the internal doors of our apartment would need some maintanance, she decided to follow the suggestion. So, using only walnuts, here is the the amazing result...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-3942924460641172601?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/3942924460641172601/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=3942924460641172601' title='4 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3942924460641172601'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/3942924460641172601'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/02/il-potere-delle-noci.html' title='Il potere delle noci'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S4pGskscF5I/AAAAAAAABic/ZRdF7jKh78Y/s72-c/prima_dopo.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6226333904488062542</id><published>2010-02-27T21:20:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-02-27T21:41:31.776+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Una piccola Rio...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S4mBlzhKFQI/AAAAAAAABiM/zZ4Hr7HpqGc/s1600-h/albero_marzano_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S4mBlzhKFQI/AAAAAAAABiM/zZ4Hr7HpqGc/s320/albero_marzano_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443024111138379010" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Gia' l'anno scorso (vedi &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/02/il-totem-di-marzano.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;) il nostro amico Antonio (colui che non ama il cilantro, lo zenzero, i pesci a forma di pesce e quant'altro...) ci aveva stupito con il carro preparato per il carnevale di Marzano (certo, non e' quello di Rio de Janeiro ma non e' neanche cosi' male); quest'anno, pur non avendo potuto vedere di persona il nuovo carro, siamo onorati di poter postarne qui alcune foto.

Traendo ispirazione da un &lt;a href="http://www.cavolettodibruxelles.it/2010/01/manzo-con-patate-dolci-e-sake"&gt;post&lt;/a&gt; del sempre eccezionale &lt;a href="http://www.cavolettodibruxelles.it"&gt;Cavoletto di Bruxelles&lt;/a&gt; siamo cosi' sconfinati in estremo oriente, allontanandoci dai canoni classici della cucina italiana ma trovando un modo alternativo, e gustoso, di mangiare carne di manzo. Forse per Emiko o per Kuniko, le nostre amiche giapponesi, sara' un cibo scontato, ma il manzo gustato assieme alle patate e cotto nello zenzero, nel sake' e nella salsa di soia, ha un qualcosa di speciale... E come vedete dalla foto, sono ormai un maestro nell'uso dei mitici chopstick.&lt;hr&gt; Silvia's pregnancy doesn't allow to prepare extra-caloric or extra-glicemic food. Nevertheless today Silvia was able to cook something special, finding a good inspiration in this  &lt;a href="http://www.cavolettodibruxelles.it/2010/01/manzo-con-patate-dolci-e-sake"&gt;post&lt;/a&gt; of the always great &lt;a href="http://www.cavolettodibruxelles.it"&gt;Cavoletto di Bruxelles&lt;/a&gt;. We miss a lot multicultural food we found in USA, and it was nice to try some japanese experiment. We like to be "people of the world". So we ate a special beef, together with potatoes. But there were also special ingredients like sake, ginger and soy sauce. And the result was great. And as you see, at the end I'm a master in the art of eating with chopstick. For sure Emiko and Kuniko, our japanese friends, would be able to prepare something more impressive, but we were very satisfied about this experiment :-).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-962441230279125059?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/962441230279125059/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=962441230279125059' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/962441230279125059'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/962441230279125059'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/02/esperimenti-giapponesi.html' title='Esperimenti giapponesi'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S4FBbLiQgDI/AAAAAAAABiE/3FB7tMI0Dxk/s72-c/enrico_manzo_sake.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1567208716923906867</id><published>2010-02-18T10:51:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-02-18T11:01:57.553+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bicycle'/><title type='text'>Yes we bike</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.yeswebike.it"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S30PfjeU-hI/AAAAAAAABh0/0KL3gFnN_y4/s1600-h/logo_earth.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 201px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S30PfjeU-hI/AAAAAAAABh0/0KL3gFnN_y4/s320/logo_earth.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439520959706233362" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ci permettiamo qui di pubblicizzare una bella iniziativa promossa da un gruppo di studenti delle classi del LICEO ARTISTICO CANDIANI di Busto Arsizio (VA): si tratta di &lt;a href="http://www.yeswebike.it"&gt;Yes we bike&lt;/a&gt;.

Cosi' facendo si minimizzano i costi (sia economici che eco-sostenibili) relative al trasporto degli alimenti. Il fiorire dei farmer market locali e' una dimostrazione dell'attenzione che c'e' a questo tema (li' si unisce l'abbattimento dell'inquinamento dovuto al trasporto a una ottima qualita' di prodotti provenienti direttamente dall'agricoltore o dall'allevatore, senza intermediari) e anche i sacchibelli apprezzano molto questa idea. Tuttavia, per evidenti motivi, la spesa al supermercato e' tuttora indispensabile, sia per la varieta' che per la specificita' di molti prodotti (ci sentiremmo di diffidare di un ananas coltivato in provincia di Pavia, ad esempio....).  L'altra sera, recatici ad uno dei maggiori supermercati della citta', abbiamo cosi' fatto la spesa settimanale e, un po' di fretta, abbiamo acquistato anche una confezione di pollo al forno, gia' preparato, da utilizzare in caso di emergenza. A casa siamo pero' rimasti un po' stupiti nel leggere l'etichetta, che recava, come si nota dalla foto, la seguente dicitura:&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt; Ingredienti: petto di pollo (origine Brasile)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;Ora, non vogliamo contestare la qualita' del prodotto (che anzi non era male), ma ci pare un po' insolito far arrivare i polli dal Brasile. Non ci risulta infatti che il pollo del Brasile sia particolarmente famoso e i costi (non solo economici) del trasporto del pollo dal Brasile a qui ci paiono "poco sostenibili". Passi per il Carnevale di Rio, la samba, i funambolici giocatori di calcio e le mille qualita' che rendono il Brasile un paese straordinario, ma forse del pollo carioca se ne potrebbe fare a meno.&lt;hr&gt;We usually pay some attention when we go to a superstore and in general we like the "farmers market concept". To buy food coming from a very close region helps the planet too, thus saving costs and pollution due to its transportation. Unfortunately, few days ago, we were a little bit in a rush and going to superstore we bought some things without paying too much attention to the labes. So, at home, when we were ready to eat the chicken roast we bought, it was surprising to discover that the chicken was coming from Brazil (!!!). This was a little bit disappointing. The quality was good, but it is hard to think that we need to import chickens from Brazil... Next time sacchibelli will pay more attention.....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1271989373650721033?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1271989373650721033/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1271989373650721033' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1271989373650721033'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1271989373650721033'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/02/spesa-km-0.html' title='Spesa km 0'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S3j5CZPIGcI/AAAAAAAABhs/5xc4oJgNtLA/s72-c/pollo_brasile.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-5621594010526992174</id><published>2010-02-07T14:23:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-02-07T14:32:08.574+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Corri ragazzo laggiu'</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S27AXnos9PI/AAAAAAAABhk/Y1q6aluA_7Q/s1600-h/DSC00919.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S27AXnos9PI/AAAAAAAABhk/Y1q6aluA_7Q/s320/DSC00919.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435493312291992818" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Venerdi' sera, tornando a casa in bicicletta sotto un'abbondantissima nevicata, pensavo di essere piuttosto "cool".

L'altro giorno, facendo la spesa all'Esselunga, ci e' caduto l'occhio su un particolare taglio di carne che in effetti ricordava la bistecca alla fiorentina. L'etichetta pero' ci ha stupito un po'. Benche' dalla foto non si veda molto, c'è scritto "Fiorentina con osso, razza piemontese". Ora, a parte l'ossimoro legato al fatto che Firenze non e' in Piemonte, la domanda che sorge spontanea, e che rivolgiamo ai puristi, e' se si possa battezzare "bistecca alla fiorentina" un taglio di carne proveniente dal Piemonte (e quindi non di razza chianina).&lt;hr&gt; Probably the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-bone_steak#Bistecca_alla_Fiorentina"&gt;bistecca alla fiorentina&lt;/a&gt; is known all around the world. As you know Florence is in Tuscany, so we were a little bit surprised when we read the label (see photo) attached to a great piece of meat at the superstore. You can read "Fiorentina con osso, razza piemontese", but Piemonte is a region in the north of Italy.... So, is it a mistake or is it possible to call "Fiorentina" also some meat coming from other regions?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1476045007029541087?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1476045007029541087/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1476045007029541087' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1476045007029541087'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1476045007029541087'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/incertezze-gastronmico-geografiche.html' title='Incertezze gastronomico-geografiche'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S2YFnseI0mI/AAAAAAAABhU/rWrofJt55RU/s72-c/fiorentina_piemontese.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-54733951528288222</id><published>2010-01-30T20:08:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-30T21:51:56.856+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Compagni di scuola (20 anni fa...)</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S2SbvX4CMeI/AAAAAAAABhM/N3a8JiDqnsQ/s1600-h/luca_chiara_zube.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S2SbvX4CMeI/AAAAAAAABhM/N3a8JiDqnsQ/s320/luca_chiara_zube.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5432638288680858082" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Il tempo scorre, e la percezione che ne abbiamo e' che scorra sempre piu' in fretta... Cosi', quando giovedi' scorso, abbiamo avuto ospiti a cena gli ottimi Roberto e Luca (con l'altrettanto ottima Chiara, da poco moglie di Luca, come &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/09/matrimonio-di-luca-e-chiara.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt; descritto), e' stato un po traumatico realizzare che il nostro primo incontro risale addirittura a 25 anni fa (settembre 1985), allorche' cominciammo il liceo scientifico come compagni di classe. Tralasciando gli aspetti nostalgici, la serata e' stata piacevolissima, sia per l'ottima cena preparata da Silvia che per la bella sensazione di essere circondati da amici veri. Ed eccon l'immancabile foto...&lt;hr&gt; Time is flying faster and faster. This is an obvious consideration, but when we invited, last Thursday, Roberto and Luca (with his wife Chiara) at our place for a dinner, it was amazing to realize that we met each other roughly 25 years ago, when we started our high school as classmate. Let's forget this nostalgic point, and let's focus on that evening. The dinner was great (thanks Silvia) and to share some time with true friends is always magic.

Si puo' realizzare in vari modi, ma probabilmente il piu' efficente consiste nella raccolta &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raccolta_differenziata_porta_a_porta"&gt;porta a porta&lt;/a&gt; (anche detta pap). Certo si tratta di un procedimento che richiede non pochi sacrifici e probabilmente extra costi aggiuntivi, ma comincia a diffondersi in molti comuni, anche di grosse dimensioni. I dati raccolti da LegaAmbiente per l'anno 2008 sono linkati &lt;a href="http://www.gestionale.legambiente.org/ecosportello/uploads/File/DossierCR/DossierCR2008.pdf"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;. Tanto per cambiare Pavia non compare nella classifica dei comuni piu' ricicloni, e l'&lt;a href="http://www.asm.pv.it/"&gt;ASM&lt;/a&gt; dichiara che nel 2008 la quota di rifiuti raccolta in modo differenziato e' stata del 30% (vedi &lt;a href="http://www.asm.pv.it/servizi/ambiente_rifiuti.asp"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;). Probabilmente si puo' fare di meglio, ma non credo che la colpa sia dell'&lt;a href="http://www.asm.pv.it/"&gt;ASM&lt;/a&gt;, bensi' dello scarso senso civico di molti dei nostri concittadini. Ci limitiamo a postare una foto, esemplificativa, dello stato in cui versa la raccolta dei rifiuti a Pavia. Da notare che, benche' l'ASM fornisca un efficiente sistema di ritiro di rifiuti ingombranti a domicilio, il pavese medio preferisce disfarsene come mostrato nella foto. Credo che non ci siano commenti da fare... &lt;hr&gt;Probably in almost all the European countries and within United States there is a very efficient collection of items for &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling"&gt;recycling&lt;/a&gt;. It is a crucial problem, and it has to be solved in the most convenient way. It is sad, but in Italy such a system is not perfectly working. There are some towns where collection of items for recycling works quite well (see &lt;a href="http://www.gestionale.legambiente.org/ecosportello/uploads/File/DossierCR/DossierCR2008.pdf"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;), but this is not true in general. Pavia, the place where we live, is not in a good position. But the problem is mainly due to people living here, and not to &lt;a href="http://www.asm.pv.it"&gt;ASM&lt;/a&gt; the public company in charge of this. The picture is just an example of what you can see around, and this is a demonstration of the barbarism of many of our fellow citizens...

Forse e' perche' ho avuto l'opportunita' di vivere in paesi piu' civili dove ho potuto percepire una vera attenzione alle fasce piu' deboli della popolazione. Mai a Berkeley ho visto auto parcheggiate sui marciapiedi e sulle piste ciclabili. E non si pensi a Berkeley come alla classica citta' americana piena di parcheggi multipiano o sotterranei. Anche laggiu' c'e' una seria lacuna di parcheggi. Tuttavia c'e' un miglior senso civico, un rigoroso controllo del territorio (ecco qui il temibile &lt;a href="http://fogcityfog.com/blog/wp-content/Photo/interceptor_parking.jpg"&gt;interceptor&lt;/a&gt; che inesorabilmente colpisce le macchine in divieto di sosta), una segnaletica chiara, mezzi pubblici capillari ed efficienti (ecco il link ad &lt;a href="http://www2.actransit.org/main.wu"&gt;AC transit&lt;/a&gt;, l'equivalente della nostra &lt;a href="http://www.lineservizi.it/"&gt;Line&lt;/a&gt;). Io ci ho vissuto un anno senza auto, e garantisco che mai ho avuto la tentazione di comprarne una. In Italia (e a Pavia in particolare), il fatto di avere pochi parcheggi non funziona da deterrente alla diffusione delle auto. Tanto, una volta che ho l'auto, da qualche parte dovro' pur metterla. Questo e' il modo di pensare del pavese tipico, e il risultato e' quello riprodotto nelle quattro foto scattate domenica.&lt;br /&gt;P.S. Dimenticavo: a Berkeley quando cammini per strada incontri un numero impressionante di portatori di handicap che si muovono autonomamente sulle loro carrozzine elettriche; circolano lungo i marciapiedi sgombri e privi di barriere architettoniche, accedono ai mezzi di trasporto pubblico e, nei limiti del possibile, conducono una vita "normale". Vi siete mai chiesti come mai a Pavia cosi' non e'? Forse perche' ci sono meno disabili? O perche' rendiamo loro la vita impossibile parcheggiando dove capita senza pensare che forse la nostra auto potrebbe dare fastidio?&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1VyYvlMwxI/AAAAAAAABgs/kVWFPHd1DwY/s1600-h/DSC00898.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1VyYvlMwxI/AAAAAAAABgs/kVWFPHd1DwY/s320/DSC00898.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428370695279919890" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1VyY-kWfbI/AAAAAAAABg0/Le_3sHfpJEM/s1600-h/DSC00900.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1VyY-kWfbI/AAAAAAAABg0/Le_3sHfpJEM/s320/DSC00900.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428370699302895026" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Few pictures taken last Sunday walking in Pavia. The places where you see cars parked are supposed to be sidewalks or bike paths. I spent some time at Berkeley some years ago, and the situation was very different. I was surprised to see so many people with disabilities moving around with their wheel-chairs. But now I understand that here we don't have an education good enough to respect them, and we are just egocentric guys who need to find places where to park their car. Yes, it's true, here public transportation (&lt;a href="http://www.lineservizi.it/"&gt;Line&lt;/a&gt;) is a nightmare compare to  &lt;a href="http://www2.actransit.org/main.wu"&gt;AC transit&lt;/A&gt;, here Police is tolerating such a disgusting behavior, while at Berkeley if you park in a wrong zone, an &lt;a href="http://fogcityfog.com/blog/wp-content/Photo/interceptor_parking.jpg"&gt;interceptor&lt;/a&gt; will fine you, but the result is amazing.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1VyZCnRTKI/AAAAAAAABg8/rbaHT8Unj14/s1600-h/DSC00901.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1VyZCnRTKI/AAAAAAAABg8/rbaHT8Unj14/s320/DSC00901.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428370700388879522" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-5660112701010848848?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/5660112701010848848/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=5660112701010848848' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/5660112701010848848'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/5660112701010848848'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/parcheggio-selvaggio.html' title='Parcheggio selvaggio?'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1VyYT2JabI/AAAAAAAABgk/qvvQkl1sdj0/s72-c/DSC00897.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-1777587749950287881</id><published>2010-01-17T20:11:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-17T20:43:40.475+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fashion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='baby'/><title type='text'>Prove tecniche</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1NoP5ET1tI/AAAAAAAABgU/AZaEYAYZ2p8/s1600-h/fascia1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1NoP5ET1tI/AAAAAAAABgU/AZaEYAYZ2p8/s320/fascia1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427796598137804498" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Piano piano i primi giorni di aprile si avvicinano e cosi' i preparativi per l'arrivo della piccola "sacchibelli" si fanno progressivamente piu' intensi. Anche se il ruolo del papa' in questa fase e' un po' marginale (evito qui sterili polemiche su certi punti di vista leggermente "femministi" colti sia al corso preparto che in &lt;a href="http://www.ibs.it/code/9788874472017/honegger-fresco-grazia/abbiamo-bambino.html"&gt;"serie letture"&lt;/a&gt; per aspiranti genitori), mi sto comunque dando da fare per aiutare Silvia anche in questa fase. Leggendo vari forum e ascoltando i preziosi consigli di cari amici ci siamo cosi' convinti che la &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babywearing"&gt;fascia porta bebe'&lt;/a&gt; possa essere un utile strumento per facilitare poi gli spostamenti con la nostra piccola. Ce ne sono di vari tipi, modelli e marche (trovate qualche dettaglio &lt;a href="http://www.bambigioi.it/php-site/html/scegliere-porta-bimbi.php"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.sleepywrap.com/"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://www.didymos.de/english/index.php"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;) e proprio qualche giorno fa ci e' stata consegnata quella da noi scelta. Mentre Silvia ha gia' acquisito una discreta manualita', io devo ancora impratichirmi un po'. Ma la piccola Irene puo' stare tranquilla: in questi ultimi mesi che mancano alla sua nascita' il papa' diventera' bravissimo, a furia di allenarsi (nella foto con Bruna, l'orso di peluche 29enne che gentilmente si presta a queste esercitazioni)....&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1NoQbrNvWI/AAAAAAAABgc/ppyyeY9wJw0/s1600-h/fascia2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1NoQbrNvWI/AAAAAAAABgc/ppyyeY9wJw0/s320/fascia2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427796607427788130" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Our baby is waited at the beginning of April. Still few months, and then we will enjoy the little "sacchibelli". We are very excited (and a little bit worried) and we are doing our best to be ready for the great moment. After looking at some interesting forum and asking suggestions to many friends we then decided that a baby wrap would be a good tool to help us moving around with Irene. Although it is an ancient system (you can find some details &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babywearing"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;) it starts to become popular again here too. There are many different brands (some links &lt;a href="http://www.bambigioi.it/php-site/html/scegliere-porta-bimbi.php"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.sleepywrap.com/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.didymos.de/english/index.php"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;) and few days ago we received the one we have chosen. While Silvia is already pretty smart with the wrap, I still have to improve my style. However I'm doing some training,carrying Bruna, the 29 years old teddy bear you can see in the second picture.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1777587749950287881?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1777587749950287881/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1777587749950287881' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1777587749950287881'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1777587749950287881'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/prove-tecniche.html' title='Prove tecniche'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S1NoP5ET1tI/AAAAAAAABgU/AZaEYAYZ2p8/s72-c/fascia1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6987291579741454287</id><published>2010-01-13T08:51:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-13T10:52:28.599+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MOVIES'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='environment'/><title type='text'>Crude, the movie</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/duFXuRnd2CU&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en_US&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/duFXuRnd2CU&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en_US&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Arrivera' tra non molto in Italia il film &lt;a href="http://www.crudethemovie.com/"&gt;"Crude"&lt;/a&gt; di Joe Berlinger; dubito che lo potremo vedere a Pavia (mi chiedo se esiste qualche altro capoluogo di provincia, di circa 80.000 abitanti, con solo 3 cinema, di cui due soli di dimensioni ragionevoli, in citta'), ad ogni modo ci permettiamo di segnalarlo visto l'argomento che tratta. &lt;a href="http://movies.nytimes.com/2009/09/09/movies/09crude.html"&gt;Qui&lt;/a&gt; potete trovare la recensione pubblicata dal &lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/"&gt;New York Times&lt;/a&gt;. Senza voler apparire ambientalisti ad ogni costo, credo che la visione di tale film possa aiutare a riflettere sugli squilibri del mondo in cui viviamo. Sara' forse banale, ma quando si tratta di valutare se usare o meno l'auto per uno spostamento, tra i vari trade-off che di solito si mettono in conto (traffico, comodita' o scomodita' dei mezzi pubblici, costo della benzina, parcheggio e cosi' via), forse anche il fatto che contribuiamo a distruggere le vite di persone a noi lontane ma che hanno la sola colpa di essere povere e di vivere in zone ricche di petrolio e' da tenere in considerazione. E lo stesso vale per i nostri governanti, locali e non locali, che dovrebbero tenere in conto tutto cio' per capire come sia prioritaria una politica di de-incentivazione dell'uso dell'automobile per scopi privati (un esempio illuminante puo' essere quello olandese (si veda &lt;a href="http://www.ski-epic.com/amsterdam_bicycles/"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;)) e non il contrario. Con buona pace di petrolieri e costruttori di auto Diesel o benzina...&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.crudethemovie.com/"&gt;"Crude"&lt;/a&gt; is a movie that describes the fitful progress of a class-action lawsuit undertaken on behalf of the people of the Ecuadorean Amazon against multinational corporation that uses petroleum to produce gasoline. Probably we won't be able to see it here in Pavia (is there any other city with 80000 people living in with only 3 movie teahtre in town?)), but we  will do our best to watch it. The New York Times &lt;a href="http://movies.nytimes.com/2009/09/09/movies/09crude.html"&gt;critic&lt;/a&gt; was quite positive and we think that to see this movie could help us increasing our sensibility to problem related to gasoline production that sometimes we forget (or underestimate). We live (here in Italy at least) in a society where it seems not feasible to live without a car. Public transportation is depressed and public government incentives the use of cars (in the &lt;a href="http://www.ski-epic.com/amsterdam_bicycles/"&gt;Netherlands&lt;/a&gt; it is different.....). However, to know that this lifestyle is creating tremendous issues to people living far-away from us, hopefully will push up forward a better society where rights of poor people living in poor regions (but full of petroleum) will be safeguarded. Maybe we are too optimistic or ingenuous..., maybe not&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-6987291579741454287?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/6987291579741454287/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=6987291579741454287' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6987291579741454287'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/6987291579741454287'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/crude-movie.html' title='Crude, the movie'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-7778087610119101253</id><published>2010-01-10T13:53:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-10T14:17:37.951+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Sacchibelli pastamakers</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0nS5S8CyrI/AAAAAAAABf0/ZBoh7hGcWWI/s1600-h/pastamaker_1b.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0nS5S8CyrI/AAAAAAAABf0/ZBoh7hGcWWI/s320/pastamaker_1b.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425099107922528946" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Come forse ricordate il Natale scorso ci siamo regalati un bellissimo robot da cucina Kenwood (Chef KM010), dopo attenta comparazione con il celebre KitchenAid (vedi &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/12/kenwood-o-kitchenaid.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;). Abbiamo gia' fatto parecchi post riguardo al mitico Kenwood, ma questo Natale ci siamo regalati un nuovo accessorio, il tool per fare la pasta. In particolare ora possiamo produrre maccheroni o caserecce e stamattina abbiamo fatto il primo tentativo. Che dire, i primi sacchibelli's maccheroni sono riusciti proprio bene, e presto concederemo il bis.

Today we tested it, and, believe it or not, it works perfectly. We started with standard maccheroni, and in the pictures you can see the phases of our production. Probably a new era started today and soon our guests will try our fantastic pasta...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0nS6S-u6iI/AAAAAAAABgM/DqFctB2RMeY/s1600-h/pastamaker_4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0nS6S-u6iI/AAAAAAAABgM/DqFctB2RMeY/s320/pastamaker_4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425099125113678370" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-7778087610119101253?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/7778087610119101253/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=7778087610119101253' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7778087610119101253'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/7778087610119101253'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/sacchibelli-pastamakers.html' title='Sacchibelli pastamakers'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0nS5S8CyrI/AAAAAAAABf0/ZBoh7hGcWWI/s72-c/pastamaker_1b.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-8847952193896066919</id><published>2010-01-09T22:00:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-09T22:27:31.396+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>A cena col Colonnello e signora</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0j0jUIMtqI/AAAAAAAABfs/k4mLmT8CsIU/s1600-h/DSC00896.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0j0jUIMtqI/AAAAAAAABfs/k4mLmT8CsIU/s320/DSC00896.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5424854638703457954" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;E' da parecchi post che raccontiamo di incontri con amici sparsi per il mondo o che non vedevamo da tempo. E proseguiamo con questo tema raccontando della bellissima serata trascorsa col Colonnello e con sua moglie Beatrice, due amici speciali con cui, nonostante non siano proprio coetanei, ci sentiamo particolarmente a nostro agio e dimostrano sempre una vivacita' e una simpatia sorprendenti. Cosi' il semplice saluto che volevamo far loro con una rapida visita si e' trasformata in una notevolissima cena a base di pesce presso il ristorante pizzeria "Lo scoglio", rallegrata dalla loro simpatia e dai loro racconti. Che dire, grazie di cuore.&lt;br /&gt;P.S. Gli attenti lettori del blog si ricorderanno che la signora Beatrice e' anche l'autrice di quella straordinaria cassata postata &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/02/cassata.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;; e a breve avremo l'onore di assisterla nella preparazione di una cassata, con la speranza di carpirne i segreti. Insomma, state sintonizzati, ne vedrete delle belle....&lt;hr&gt;During this Christmas the subject of our posts are always about meeting with old friends. And today too we are glad to talk about the nice evening we spent with colonel Babuscio and his lovely wife Beatrice. The idea was to quickly stop at their place to wish them "Happy New Year" (we failed to see them before Christmas although it was scheduled) but they were very kind with us and proposed us to have dinner together. Although we are a little bit younger then them, to stay with Raffaele and Beatrice is really interesting and funny. They really are good friends to us. The dinner too, mainly fish based, was great (we ate at Ristorante Pizzeria "Lo scoglio"), but their presence and their pleasantness made everything special. Thanks again for the nice evening spent together.&lt;br /&gt;P.S. As probably someone remembers, we already talked about them in &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/02/cassata.html"&gt;this post&lt;/a&gt;; yes, Mrs Beatrice is the lady who prepared that delicious "cassata"; and she is ready to teach us her secrets. Please, stay tuned, soon we will post some delicious cake made by sacchibellis following Mrs Beatrice recipes...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8847952193896066919?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8847952193896066919/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8847952193896066919' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8847952193896066919'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8847952193896066919'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/cena-col-colonnello-e-signora.html' title='A cena col Colonnello e signora'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0j0jUIMtqI/AAAAAAAABfs/k4mLmT8CsIU/s72-c/DSC00896.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-8128616747125578182</id><published>2010-01-06T09:39:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-06T09:53:17.948+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>I binaschini</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0RPa8CpVpI/AAAAAAAABfk/SR_XQEKm96Q/s1600-h/binaschini.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0RPa8CpVpI/AAAAAAAABfk/SR_XQEKm96Q/s320/binaschini.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423547175473338002" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Dopo il viavai natalizio per casa Sacchibelli, ecco che i Sacchibelli vanno a creare via vai nelle case altrui. Cosi', dopo tanto tempo, siamo riusciti a passare una bella sera assieme ai nostri carissimi amici Enea e Ilaria e al loro piccolo (si fa per dire) Greg. Che dire, abitiamo a 20 km di distanza ma, causa impegni vari e molteplici, riusciamo a vederci con la stessa cadenza con cui vediamo i cari amici californiani. Ma il legame e' sempre forte, ed e' sempre bellissimo rivedersi. Poi ieri ho anche avuto modo di fare il mio esordio nel mondo della Wii, essendo stato sfidato dal buon Greg. Nonostante fossi agli esordi mi sono comportato bene nella gara con le moto (ho anche vinto una manche) e ho dimostrato un talento inaspettato nel bowling... Peccato che poco prima, nei giochi piu' tradizionali, il buon Greg mi abbia battuto a forza 4.....&lt;hr&gt;After we had many friends at our place during Christmas holidays, we visited our friends Enea, Ilaria and Greg (universally know as "I binaschini"). They really are true friends to us and although we see each other only few times during a year (we live 20km far each other but we see more often some californian friends than them) the relationship is always strong. Yesterday an additional point of interest was my "beginning" in the Wii world. I played with Greg and although I I lost at motor race, I won at bowling. Unfortunately, moving to more traditional games, I lost against Greg also at the classic "forza 4" but in spit of this unexpected defeat, it was a great evening. And we really hope that this special 2010 will bring us also the opportunity to see each other more often than we did in the last period&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8128616747125578182?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8128616747125578182/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8128616747125578182' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8128616747125578182'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8128616747125578182'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/i-binaschini.html' title='I binaschini'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0RPa8CpVpI/AAAAAAAABfk/SR_XQEKm96Q/s72-c/binaschini.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-97762037879266864</id><published>2010-01-04T18:39:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-04T18:58:26.014+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Dalle alpi (bergamasche) al tavoliere...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0IrccRpagI/AAAAAAAABfU/ZhLwRrSn-9Q/s1600-h/gianfry_anna_francesca_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0IrccRpagI/AAAAAAAABfU/ZhLwRrSn-9Q/s320/gianfry_anna_francesca_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422944668934040066" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;In questi giorni casa Sacchibelli e' davvero un bel punto di aggregazione. Dopo le recenti visite di Mattia (and family) e di Daniela, siamo oggi stati piacevolmente invasi dall'allegra compagnia dei &lt;a href="http://gattabicco.blogspot.com"&gt;Gattabicco&lt;/a&gt; e di una parte consistente della &lt;a href="http://famigliagragnani.blogspot.com"&gt;famiglia Gragnani&lt;/a&gt;. Abbiamo infatti avuto graditissimi ospiti gli ottimi Gianfranco e Anna, con la piccola Giulia (9 mesi), e Francesca con i piccoli Tommaso (4 anni) e Vanessa (2 anni). Mancava solo papa' Matteo per completare la famiglia Gragnani. Che dire, 3 bimbi per casa sono insoliti e sono stati davvero bravissimi. Abbiamo mangiato insieme una buona pizza e qualche altro dolcetto, e abbiamo trascorso momenti davvero piacevoli, pur consapevoli che ci vorra' parecchio tempo prima di riuscire a riunirci ancora tutti. Nel pomeriggio si e' poi aggiunto anche il buon Danilo, avvisato all'ultimo momento, ma giunto in tempo almeno per il caffe'. Che dire, grazie per esserci venuti a trovare e averci regalato un'anteprima della magia di avere dei bellissimi bimbi per casa. Grazie davvero!!!&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0Ircrkg7iI/AAAAAAAABfc/78BUz1WKupk/s1600-h/gianfry_anna_francesca_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0Ircrkg7iI/AAAAAAAABfc/78BUz1WKupk/s320/gianfry_anna_francesca_2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422944673039707682" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;In this period Sacchibelli place is very crowded. Many friends, traveling from USA or through Italy stop here to spend some moments with us, and we thanks them a lot for their kindness. Today we met Gianfranco and Anna, with their little Giulia (the &lt;a href="http://gattabicco.blogspot.com"&gt;Gattabicco&lt;/a&gt;) together with Francesca and her beautiful children Tommaso and Vanessa. Only Matteo was missing, but 3/4 of the &lt;a href="http://famigliagragnani.blogspot.com"&gt;famiglia Gragnani&lt;/a&gt; were with us. We just ate a pizza togheter, but to spend some time with true friends like Anna, Francesca and Gianfranco was an amazing sensation. And after lunch Danilo too joined us. Thanks for coming, and thanks for bringing us the fun and the love of your children.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-97762037879266864?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/97762037879266864/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=97762037879266864' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/97762037879266864'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/97762037879266864'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/dalle-alpi-bergamasche-al-tavoliere.html' title='Dalle alpi (bergamasche) al tavoliere...'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0IrccRpagI/AAAAAAAABfU/ZhLwRrSn-9Q/s72-c/gianfry_anna_francesca_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-2958063269403787941</id><published>2010-01-03T12:46:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-03T19:21:50.582+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='food'/><title type='text'>Aggiungi un posto a tavola...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0Df_fD9NMI/AAAAAAAABfM/iVH9_qaRHjc/s1600-h/mattia_gruppo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0Df_fD9NMI/AAAAAAAABfM/iVH9_qaRHjc/s320/mattia_gruppo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422580233116923074" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Come sapete abbiamo molti amici che vivono oltre-oceano, generalmente nell'assolata California. E nel periodo di Natale capita che molti ne approfittino per fare un salto nel paese d'origine, dai propri cari. Gia' la mitica &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/12/un-pranzo-con-daniela.html"&gt;Dany&lt;/a&gt; era passata di qui pochi giorni prima di Natale, mentre ieri sera e' stato il turno del buon Mattia. La serata e' stata particolarmente piacevole perche' il gruppo che si e' riunito intorno alla tavola imbandita era piuttosto numeroso e affiatato. Assieme a Mattia sono infatti venuti anche Guia, la sua ragazza, Selica, la sorella e la mitica mamma Franca. Ed ecco l'immancabile foto di gruppo. La cena e' stata un crescendo, culminata nel brindisi a base di Champagne, con un panettone "particolare" stupendamente arricchito da una crema a base di mascarpone preparata da Silvia (che, peraltro, non l'ha neppure assaggiata causa pancia in crescita).&lt;hr&gt;As you know, we have many friends living within USA, and in particular within California. During Christmas holidays many of them love to fly back to Italy, to stay close to their family. Few days before Cristhmas &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/12/un-pranzo-con-daniela.html"&gt;Dany&lt;/a&gt; came at our place, while yesterday Mattia joined us for dinner, together with his girlfriend Guia, his sister Selica and his mom Franca. It was a very nice evening, talking about everything, and eating many nice things prepared by Silvia. And at the end we also drank a bottle of Champagne, and we ate a very nice "panettone" with a lovely cream always prepared by Silvia (by the way, she was not allowed to eat that cream because of her pregnancy...)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-2958063269403787941?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/2958063269403787941/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=2958063269403787941' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2958063269403787941'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/2958063269403787941'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/aggiungi-un-posto-tavola.html' title='Aggiungi un posto a tavola...'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/S0Df_fD9NMI/AAAAAAAABfM/iVH9_qaRHjc/s72-c/mattia_gruppo.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-997828849825438355</id><published>2010-01-02T17:04:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-02T17:33:07.547+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bicycle'/><title type='text'>Un uomo solo al comando</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sz90VbWAOHI/AAAAAAAABe8/sLsxvMYzytI/s1600-h/foto_franc.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 228px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sz90VbWAOHI/AAAAAAAABe8/sLsxvMYzytI/s320/foto_franc.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422180387843487858" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;50 anni fa moriva &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fausto_Coppi"&gt;Fausto Coppi&lt;/a&gt;, probabilmente il piu' grande ciclista italiano di tutti i tempi. Non abbiamo avuto il privilegio di assistere alle sue imprese, ma la sua leggenda sopravvive anche ai nostri giorni. E rileggere la celebre radiocronaca di Mario Ferretti relativa alla tappa Cuneo - Pinarolo del giro d'Italia 1949 e' davvero da brividi...&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Un uomo solo al comando, la sua maglia e' bianco-celeste, il suo nome e' Fausto Coppi&lt;/span&gt;".&lt;br /&gt;Il cielo si e' colorato di bianco-celeste oggi; terso come raramente accade qui dalle nostre parti, con bei nuvoloni all'orizzonte, a contornare l'arco alpino; il sole era caldo e, nonostante il vento teso e freddo, mi e' piaciuto onorare il cinquantesimo anniversario della morte di Coppi con una bella pedalata con la mia Bianchi. Certo, senza la pretesa di imitare il celebre "airone", che ha condotto la sua celebre "Bianchi" in cima al mondo, ma per dirgli in qualche modo grazie.&lt;hr&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sz90VhAi5TI/AAAAAAAABfE/8F5DTU-KGdI/s1600-h/bici_gennaio.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sz90VhAi5TI/AAAAAAAABfE/8F5DTU-KGdI/s320/bici_gennaio.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422180389364098354" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;50 years ago &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fausto_Coppi"&gt;Fausto Coppi&lt;/a&gt; "Il Campionissimo" died. He was the stronges italian rider, and probably one of the most famous in the world. We never seen his triumphs, but the legend still survive. He was riding a Bianchi, and to celebrate him, thanks to the beautiful sunny (but windy) day, I decided to ride my Bianchi here around. Not to imitate him, but just to tell him "thanks". It is also thanks to him if we love so much to ride a bicycle.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-997828849825438355?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/997828849825438355/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=997828849825438355' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/997828849825438355'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/997828849825438355'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2010/01/un-uomo-solo-al-comando.html' title='Un uomo solo al comando'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sz90VbWAOHI/AAAAAAAABe8/sLsxvMYzytI/s72-c/foto_franc.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-8601811260732963012</id><published>2009-12-31T18:02:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2009-12-31T21:29:37.458+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bicycle'/><title type='text'>Bike vs car, first balance</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sz0IX_FOV6I/AAAAAAAABe0/5BXe3kudPc8/s1600-h/bike_vs_car_2009.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 220px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sz0IX_FOV6I/AAAAAAAABe0/5BXe3kudPc8/s320/bike_vs_car_2009.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421498734587303842" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La fine dell'anno e' tempo di bilanci... cosi' eccoci a valutare come e' andata la sfida tra auto e bici in casa sacchibelli. Abbiamo cominciato a conteggiare i km percorsi dall'elemento maschile di casa sacchibelli a partire dalla week 27 e al tempo stesso abbiamo annotato i km percorsi con l'auto. Alla fine ha vinto l'auto, ma lo scarto e' piccolo e in prospettiva (considerando l'eccezionalita' di questo periodo, con il preannunciato arrivo di cicogne) i sacchibelli non escludono di riuscire a dimostrare che e' possibile vivere senza essere completamente schiavi dell'auto, anche in paesi, come l'Italia, dove la cultura della bicicletta e' decisamente poco sviluppata. Ecco comunque il grafico riassuntivo di questa appassionante sfida. Alla fine l'auto ha vinto per 2206 km contro i 1738 percorsi in bici. Considerando che la nostra auto percorre circa 15 km con un litro, nella seconda meta' del 2009 abbiamo consumato circa 147 litri di benzina. Di sicuro non abbiamo arricchito i petrolieri locali e, forse, Al Gore puo' essere fiero di noi.&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the last six months of 2009 we try to evaluate how much we were using bicycles compared to car. The experiment was done on the male component of the sacchibelli family (the female one, being pregnant, cannot ride in this period) and at the end, although the car is winning (2206 km vs 1738 km by bike), we think that to live without being slave of cars is possible. And maybe, next year, we will be able to ride our bicycles more than drive our car.&lt;br /&gt;Considering that our car approximately consumes 1 liter of gasoline each 15 km, we needed less than 150 liters of gas in the last six months of 2009. Probably Al Gore would be proud of us...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-8601811260732963012?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/8601811260732963012/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=8601811260732963012' title='4 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8601811260732963012'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/8601811260732963012'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/12/bike-vs-car-first-balance.html' title='Bike vs car, first balance'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sz0IX_FOV6I/AAAAAAAABe0/5BXe3kudPc8/s72-c/bike_vs_car_2009.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-5046856630663708932</id><published>2009-12-30T08:42:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2009-12-30T08:51:08.929+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS'/><title type='text'>Una sera tra amici</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/SzsGXALSlYI/AAAAAAAABes/QyhAOxxvmsE/s1600-h/casa_fede_dede.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/SzsGXALSlYI/AAAAAAAABes/QyhAOxxvmsE/s320/casa_fede_dede.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5420933568724637058" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Succede che durante le vacanze di Natale molti degli amici che abbiamo in giro per il mondo tornino da queste parti (evidentemente affascinati dal freddo e dalla neve...). Qualche giorno fa era passata da casa nostra la mitica Dany, da San Diego, mentre ieri sera abbiamo avuto il piacere di rivedere l'altrettanto mitica Fede (in arrivo dalla Germania, ma transitando per San Francisco...); e l'occasione e' stata davvero speciale perche' ha permesso di radunare intorno a un bel tavolino (ricco di dolci, tisane e quant'altro) tanti cari amici. E cosi' non abbiamo resistito alla tentazione di postare la foto sul blog :-). Cosi' ecco una foto di gruppo con (da sinistra a destra): Fede, Silvia, Alice. Agnese, il sottoscritto (master in autoscatto), Achille e Luisa.&lt;br /&gt;Che dire, proprio una bella serata. Grazie di cuore a Fede e a tutta la truppa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;During Christmas holydays it happens that many friends living around the world come back (probably because they love cold weather and snow too...). So, few day ago we met Dany, who lives at San Diego, while yesterday we had the opportunity to see again Fede, who usually lives in Germany. She invited us, together with a bunch of dear friends, at her home, and we really spent a great evening. Thanks to everyone!!!!! And let's post a nice picture to remember this moment. Here you can see, from left to right, Fede, Silvia, Alice, Agnese, myself, Achille and Luisa.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-5046856630663708932?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/5046856630663708932/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=5046856630663708932' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/5046856630663708932'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/5046856630663708932'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/12/una-sera-tra-amici.html' title='Una sera tra amici'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/SzsGXALSlYI/AAAAAAAABes/QyhAOxxvmsE/s72-c/casa_fede_dede.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-6652777654422540964</id><published>2009-12-25T20:31:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2009-12-25T20:43:45.344+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Oh oh oh...

Ora che la nostra amica  &lt;a href="http://bodyminder.blogspot.com"&gt;Dany&lt;/a&gt; ci ha regalato questo bellissimo  &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Itty-Bitty-Toys-Animals-Dolls-Playthings/dp/1579653766"&gt;libro&lt;/a&gt;, le creazioni di Silvia si fanno ancora piu' entusiasmanti. Ed essendo oggi Natale, eccovi un bellissimo Santa Claus... E credo che a breve ne vedrete delle belle...&lt;hr&gt;We already mentioned Silvia's "knitting" activity. She is really surprising us, and today we are proud to show you one of her last creations, Santa Claus. Our friend &lt;a href="http://bodyminder.blogspot.com"&gt;Dany&lt;/a&gt; sent us, as a lovely gift, &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Itty-Bitty-Toys-Animals-Dolls-Playthings/dp/1579653766"&gt;this book&lt;/a&gt;, and Santa Claus scheme comes exactly from there.

Mentre l'anno scorso avevamo postato &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/12/buon-natale.html"&gt;l'originalissimo albero di Natale dei pompieri&lt;/a&gt;, quest'anno siamo piu' tradizionalisti e siamo lieti di pubblicare in esclusiva una foto del bellissimo albero di Natale realizzato dal nostro amico Antonio (colui che non ama ne' la cannella, ne' il cilantro). Complimenti Antonio, l'albero e' davvero stupendo!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;Christmas time is very close, and sacchibelli wish Happy holidays to our readers. &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/12/buon-natale.html"&gt;Last year&lt;/a&gt; we posted the fire fighters Christmas tree, while this year we are pleased to post the amazing Christmas tree made by our friend Antonio (the one who doesn't love cinnamom and cilantro).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8026047890484454324-1783846871238253744?l=sacchibelli.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/feeds/1783846871238253744/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8026047890484454324&amp;postID=1783846871238253744' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1783846871238253744'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8026047890484454324/posts/default/1783846871238253744'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2009/12/happy-holidays.html' title='Happy holidays'/><author><name>sacchibelli</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00718105711390251912</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sy_fuR-NhmI/AAAAAAAABeM/GtDbv9rgNhs/s72-c/alberello_di_natale.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8026047890484454324.post-7765808111344675570</id><published>2009-12-21T21:32:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2009-12-21T21:37:10.863+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Master of parking /2</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sy_cK6xZTQI/AAAAAAAABeE/VJKH1YL0Kkw/s1600-h/DSC00091.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EEhjYqsNhZ4/Sy_cK6xZTQI/AAAAAAAABeE/VJKH1YL0Kkw/s320/DSC00091.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5417790956883234050" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Pochi mesi fa abbiamo postato &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/11/master-of-parking.html"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt; una foto relativa a un brillante parcheggio che ho fatto in uno spazio di poco superiore alla lunghezza della nostra auto. L'altra sera ho ripetuto l'impresa; certo, stavolta c'era qualche centimetro in piu' di spazio, ma a complicare l'operazione c'era anche la neve e la strada ghiacciata....&lt;br /&gt;Credo di meritarmi dei complimenti :-)&lt;HR&gt;Some months ago we posted &lt;a href="http://sacchibelli.blogspot.com/2008/11/master-of-parking.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;an impressive picture about my art in the "car parking". Few days ago, although I probably had few centimetre more, I repeated something similar, and probably harder too, considering that it was snowing and there was ice everywehere...

Le temperature minime sono piuttosto rigide, ed e' da qualche giorno che si resta sotto zero per tutta la giornata. In piu' ha ripreso a nevicare, e questo aumenta ulteriormente la sensazione di freddo (oltre che i disagi alla circolazione). Ecco alcuni scatti che rendono l'idea...&lt;br /&gt;P.S.

Maybe it is mainly suggestion, but we feel a very cold sensation, and it happens that temperature stays below zero (Celsius, don't worry too much) al day long. Now it is snowing too, so you feel cold only watching outside from the window....
