"See how the sun shines brightly in the city on the streets."

Here in Italy today's a holiday, but instead of celebrating the Three Wise Men, like in other european countries, we get gifts from the Befana. It's an old lady who flies on a broom and brings candy or coal to kids. We leave stockings for her to fill. I can proudly say I never got a piece of coal in my life, except for when I stole it from my cousin's stockings (they're sugar, and delicious). :D This year I got a full stocking of candy, and it was the best one yet, prepared by the wonderful space_oddity_75 and her brilliant daughter, and it's all *drumroll* Cabin Pressure themed!





It's the most awesome stocking ever. I kept digging inside and giggling like a lunatic. We've got mini-muffins, honey from Uskerty (beeees!), a capsized duck, chocolate coins, a toblerone, a travelling lemon bag for tea bags, cheesecake-flavoured sweets, orange tictacs, a paper trumpet (I should always carry one with me, one never knows), and I've already eaten half of the Yellow Cane, and it tastes like lemon, delicious!

In other news, I've been going through my Netflix list, and I just finished my Father Ted marathon. I loved it, although I did find the ending depressing, for obvious reasons. So I immediately moved on to The Vicar of Dibley, which is adorable, although going from an atheist religious sit-com to a religious religious sit-com was a very weird mental shift. :D I am enjoying it a lot anyway, even if I started it because I knew Richard Armitage was in it, and only later I found out he only appears in the last two episodes. Oops. This is like the time when I started watching Doctor Who because somebody told me John Simm was in it. :D

And now, I'll have some mini-muffins with my tea, Ute, thank you. *____*
