And again, everyone at the table From memory that allows me to remember, during the Christmas holidays my house has always been populated by variable number of friends. This year, of course, is no exception.
Generally the wave comes just days after the sumptuous Christmas feast, without even giving the time required for the disposal of the debris of that meal and sabongia of calories you eat in the same day and read to the sound of trouble.
After fifteen years ago with four people on vacation, in addition to no more than five days, this year the stars who took not only the historians were friends, on time, on the evening of January 1, but by December 30 here this afternoon was already another addition to my family. More than a 'friend. Number of people
Jan. 1: Ten.
The house usually contains barely five, who share a badly spaces invading the casino the other.
We are now thirteen, because the friend of the family is the first game, but last night touched a peak never reached fourteen boarders in one fell swoop, all camped out in some way around the property. Camp, I would stress, because the beds are seven officers.
In very exceptional cases have doubled, an extraordinary event which credit must go to two folding beds, one cot, never used a sofa bed and two mattresses found in some way in order to discard the landlady the idea of \u200b\u200bsending some family members hostess to sleep in the car with blankets and pillows. Probably for fear of being the unlucky us, between me and their brothers are locked in a fierce fighter for the mattress, which was also caressed the idea of \u200b\u200bplucking the geese and chickens living in the garden to be able to build a new one.
However, somehow couches were arranged without the shedding of feathers, and now, after arranging all of us in a room with a bed and blankets, the days pass, more or less as follows.
First, it has now been formalized in the morning Briefly, in the sense that the hour of rising from the camp ranges between ten and twelve and a half and half. Of course, no breakfast is skipped, so the table is busy and full of food until the last of the inhabitants has not satisfied its Early appetiti.Attenzione all'imbandimento the dinner table, however, particularly well-defined and that makes the caloric idea that in this house always accompanies the holidays together.
In the current era, in which, while half the world starves, the other half is on a diet, you might expect a slight colazioncina: caffettino, honey, and maybe a slice of bread with a sugar-free marmellatina. We
, panettone.
Not only that accompanies the inseparable pandoro variant, all well escorted by siphons mascarpone-l 'bomb ubiquitous feature that distinguishes the caloric from the Easter-Christmas period, cappuccinos and a number of mock not well approximated by five of coffee and some bread left over from dinner, jam and cornflakes, and rivers of fresh milk and creamy, cartons of rice milk chocolate and almond, and some days even vanilla.
The panel, once you are satisfied that all is cleared and laid for dinner, which takes place between three and four and a half. With this, you can see how essential is the constant presence of food and culinary staff to assist the hungry. Since this house
with butlers and cooks, the role is fulfilled by the mothers, and between a mixture of mascarpone cream and a mocha coffee spend the day in the kitchen, armed with Thermomix cooking, washing endless piles of dishes and piles of dishes and then mend . A splendid example of so-called emancipation of women.
spignattano While the ladies, the rest of the herd he shares the role of fundamental importance in the consumption of energy accumulated during the abundant food, such as obsessive-compulsive use of the Wii video game, constant strumming without conviction on the part of musicians, control Facebook time for bold young men and not babysitting or working in virtual football games, discussion intellectually relaxed, large and dangling strolls in the garden for a breath 'of fresh air and, aided by the cold, burn some calories.
At lunch, there is the problem of beds traversed on the table, which is also usually the least worst score between five and fourteen hours in front of a hungry diners. At the first dinner in fourteen it was clear that not only would not be enough places, but the space for the food once prepared the dishes would have been non-existent.
The difficulty was quickly solved by a shift in basal division of meals: children in the first round, the adults in the second. The mothers in the kitchen every caso.Si Note, however, the unfair conclusion: unlike the first turn, he finished in a hurry to clear the table and prepare the place and the big meal, you drag the second round with a large train, and lasted sometimes until four and a half, even five. Conclusions is warm with slices of sweet breakfast and advanced by the party last year, among which the famous struffoli (question of storage of pallets of pulp chips, associated with honey and sugar, and enriched in the cluster by candied fruit. They have the characteristic diet of not allowing those who dare to eat a single ball, then stop until they have hardened teeth to the sound of balls of dough and honey. Once that is done, in fact, make it impossible to open the jaw, closing stimuli in the mouth so hungry and spasm as a meal. Unfortunately, the quantity of pallets to ingest before cementing the oral cavity is large enough to feed the hungry horde of barbarians, so the dietary properties of the cake is not very usable) and pandori and panettone for breakfast. Everywhere the presence of at least a bowl of tempting indispensable and mascarpone cream.
five o'clock, the kitchen is left to the mothers in free chat while riordinano.Qui touched topics that no one else in your house have access to: mysterious discussions are ongoing and apparently also exciting, as they can steadily during the last 'occupation of the kitchen. Chapter
with significant importance in these discussions is on what to prepare for dinner already owed. After checking the refrigerator packed with leftovers still go back to the Christmas dinner and have decided that nothing is ready for the evening meal, the ladies come out to the edge of the first camera angle out from the puzzle of cars in the courtyard, the After the supermarket, from which they return triumphantly dragging shopping bags overflowing after a variable amount of time, generally defined by the amount of windows in shops with the balance met in the street.
time to frame charges in the pantry and decide what to prepare all the space available it is therefore already time to turn the stove.
treenne Meanwhile, the baby put to sleep woke up at four o'clock, and requires games to the new nanny, raised by the role of daughter to her father's peremptory assertion that "it's not your daughter, she is my nanny."
The house was turned inside out in search of missing pieces in board games obviously extremely attractive to the small boxes of animals are reversed and explore in depth, lego build skyscrapers in size which are then killed with a hammer, thrown with tools to shape not well defined but very reliable source, such as the large box in which are hidden all those things that are not ordered place elsewhere.
On completion of the odyssey in the playroom, the bedroom is invaded more accessible and less ena more camping beds, turning in the thalamus and imaginary pirate ship, launched stuffed animals of all shapes around the room, diving into amazing rescues at sea, fighting fierce sharks and killer jellyfish.
Save the furry toy is made wide selection of video tapes and DVDs to watch after dinner. The average is four picks in the evening.
Then comes the time-quick-drawing, music and adventure in the garden, where aboard a jalopy that was once a flaming orange bulldozer pedal, you should find the webbed birds camped in the bottom of the field, chase crooked-tailed cats and seek non-existent eggs of hens by the strange hair.
It is now evening, and everyone is gathered again at the big table overflowing dishes. Established
and fought rounds, stretching his hands on the plates and in a moment the children have finished the meal and returned with renewed energy and a full belly games left hanging, ready to finish yet another Wii game and falling asleep in front to a video divano.I large sit, eat and indulge in the considerations, thoughts and intentions.
First of all, day, diet!, Highlighted by a generous scoop of creamy mascarpone crashed at midnight on the plate, but still tasting struffoli whose presence now all have resigned, and season with some chocolate cream that just could not not try.
Finally one o'clock when they all leave, going to hole up in their shelters at night. Yelling, laughing, yawning, they all start.
And the mothers are already thinking what to put on the table tomorrow for breakfast.
