Andare in bicicletta; v. (informal) to go cycling, use a push bike

Living in Volpago has spurred inside me a love for riding una bici. This bici. It is Chiara's. And it is awesome.



I like riding into Montebelluna. I was even clever enough to ride to the piscina, swim a km, and then ride back. It was nice to know that I can ride a bike. and  not fall off, or get hit by a car (really though, the chance is high once you have seen the way that Italians drive). It's just nice riding the bici in the spring breeze.

I like the basket on the front, becasue then I can put my bag in it, and I even pu my groceries in it. I rode to the big supermarket on Tuesday afternoon (after watching Jersey Shore) upon deciding that I would cook dinner for Chiara and Davide. taste.com.au served as my recipe book, and I chose 'roasted chicken with red wine and grapes', followed by 'pear and blueberry crumble'.  it was a nice ride, as usual, as the weather had been hot, and it was quite warm in the house. The wind in my hair was welcoming. The big supermarket it big, It reminds me of Safeway. It has been hard to bake and cook, here in Italy, becasue I have trouble finding the ingredients; I either cont know the name in Italiano, or they don't exist in Italy, like condensed milk. So being at this big Safeway, I felt pretty sure that i would find most of the ingredients... I think that there were only 3 ingredients that I couldn't find, but it took me about 30 minuti to find the rest, and walking up and down the same aisles many times. Dinner was a success, needless to say.

BACIO X
