Wauhh, has one year already elapsed?! Not sure about you guys, but here time goes by very fast, It seems to me that I arrived in Sydney only a few months ago, and guess what? It is alrealdy my birthday again! To be honest, I don't feel like I have already lived 30 years...may I live this year again?? :) One year ago I was in the middle of the Australian countryside to extend my visa (goal attained),now I’m back in the city, planning my return to Italy. Although I still have some months and a few trips to do, a part of me is already back in Italy, handling a bunch of projects and ideas. The other part is here, trying to figure it out if something has changed ...I mean, the part of you that you normally don't listen to, because you're too busy with your daily life, the part of you that you have to face only in extreme situations, aka when you decide to go half way around the world alone! More aware, more peaceful and even more convinced that we must always find the time for the things we like, for the people we love and for the passions we follow, that's how I feel at the threshold of 31! I could make a list of good intentions, such as eating less chocolate, taking better care of my hair, limiting my purchases when it comes to books (otherwise, I'll shortly have to open a bookstore!), Learning to cook even the things I don’t like, learning to knit and taking up a sport - i'm still unsure if I can squeeze yoga and pilates into the "sport" label- Let's say I'll try to keep these intentions in mind, but i'm not formally making any promise
Given the fact that last year I chose a biologic and rustic cake, this year I want to exaggerate! Tiramisù!! It is not only the sole dessert with coffee that I can eat (other than the legendary Grandma's trifle!) but also one of those cakes that make Italians abroad look like a sort of benevolent gods who come down to earth with the aim of dispensing happiness and joy. Moreover, it reminds Italians abroad of their home, and everyone loves it: to be honest, I have never made as many Tiramisù in all my life as I have made during these two years in Australia! :) There is no recipe because of the transient state I am in (moving out / temporary accommodation /departure toward Australian heavens) I even don't have a scale, but for some reason I still have the electric whisk, and I'm wondering why?! ! Well, the truth is that I can now make a Tiramisù blindfolded, and it is apparently always good, and also a little different every time ☺, so no post "with recipe" today , but trust me, it will be delicious! A big hug from this V who seems to have grown a bit ...but that does not fell these 31 years at all!
Un abbraccio grande da questa V che sembra essere cresciuta un po’…ma che questi 31 anni non se li sente affatto!!!
