My local bar, Ranieri, is decked in black curtains today. Last night in the Derby della Madonnina (any game between the two soccer clubs of Milan), Inter lost to arch rival Milan. A happy day for the black-and-red’s. A day of sadness for the black-and-blue’s. A veritable death for the hardcore such as Sergio, the owner of the bar. My interista husband’s take on the match: “We were unlucky.”
- What happens when an American woman ends up spending three quarters of the year in an Italian city and the remaining quarter in the French countryside? She feels better, more content. Happier. This is her attempt to explain why and, hopefully, spread the feeling.

angels wept.
we’re going to go do some yard work.
Now yard work cheers angels up. So does bike riding. That’s what we did today. (Personally, I wasn’t the least bit effected by the loss of Inter, but I can empathize with those that suffer…and they take it soooo seriously.)
