Alla Certosa di Pavia
June 2, 2013 // Posted in bike | No Comments
After a spring time with bad weather conditions, today we had a lovely sunny day. So we decided to ride our bicycles, riding with us little Lorenzo too, and we went to Certosa di Pavia, to see the beatiful and famous church. And we had a lot of fun, looking at Lorenzo walking in a so wide space. It is a really cuty boy!!!!
Con un cuore di marmellata e uno di nutella
June 2, 2013 // Posted in food | No Comments
Here at sacchibelli’s we used to prepare (and eat) a lot of muffins (see here), but in the last period we didn’t find too much time to spend cooking. However today Silvia made some experiment, and improved her muffins with the addition of an heart of jam or of nutella. Amazing!!!!
Pavia – Pisa
June 2, 2013 // Posted in Pavia | No Comments
Yesterday there was the rowing challenge on the Ticino river among Pisa and Pavia (something similar, in some way, to the famous Oxford vs Cambridge rowing challenge) and we went, together with Lorenzo, to give a look. We didn’t stop too much (Lorenzo is not so calm) but the sunny day made the river, with Pavia on the background, really exciting.
Pizza e gelato in compagnia
May 28, 2013 // Posted in friends | No Comments
We love to share our time with our dear friends Luca, Chiara and Anna, and although recently it happens that we meet relatively often (see here and here), we would like to do something more. However today we had a dinner together (a simple pizza to go and an home made “gelato”) and, as expected, it was a great evening. Lorenzo and Anna are so cute… Thanks for coming, and thanks for your true friendship
Quasi come a Singapore

We often publish some post about our beautiful orchids (see here for example); although we recognize that it is not because of us, we are quite proud of them, and we like to show the last flowers that, in this period, are embellishing our apartment.

Bagni di colore
May 19, 2013 // Posted in family, Lorenzo, Pavia | No Comments
Today we partecipated to “Bagno di colore”, a nice event within the “Bambin Festival“. It consists in an experiment where little babies have the possibility to use their hands and their feet to paint. The result has been amazing. And don’t worry, Lorenzo colour is back to the original pink, now.
Secondo aperitivo

After the first one, Lorenzo is ready for the second appetizer. And now that he grew up a little bit, he can start partially enjoying some appetizer. Don’t worry, the beer you see in the picture is not for him.

Da quando il PC fisso dei Sacchibelli e’ stato “rottamato” per far posto a Lorenzo, siamo sempre piu’ in una casa Windows free (inteso come sistema operativo, non come finestre). Si dice che con Linux sia impossibile o molto complicato riuscire a fare tutto. Eppure… Ieri sera dovevamo acquisire un video dalla videocamera, via firewire. E’ un’operazione che tipicamente facevamo da Windows, usando softare piu’ o meno sofisticati. Una rapida ricerca su google e il seguente comando:
dvgrab -format dv2 lorenzo
ci ha permesso di acquisire i file avi, direttamente su PC linux. Che dire, fantastico. Qui si puo’ trovare qualche dettaglio in piu’ sul comando dvgrab.
When Lorenzo arrived, we had to create some space for him, and our desktop PC (dual boot Linux/Windows) has been removed. Now sacchibelli’s house is Windows free (OS speaking), even if someone says that using Linux it is not possible to do many things, or, anyway,they are very tricky. One of the few reasons we had a windows PC was the capture of videos through firewire. Yesterday we had to import some avi file from our handycam and we googled to find a way to do it within Linux environment. And we have found that is much easier than expected. We plugged the videocamera through firewire gable and we entered the following command:
dvgrab -format dv2 lorenzoEt voila’….
Una domenica in Valtellina
May 12, 2013 // Posted in food, friends | 1 Comment
Michela and Everest are dear friends to us that moved back to Valtellina, and it does not happen often to meet each other (see here and here). So today we went to their place, at Ponte in Valtellina, and we met again them, and, for the first time, we knew their lovely baby Arianna. She is so cute…. Ivan and Gabry joined us, and we really shared a great day. Thanks for inviting us, and thanks for your true friendship. And thanks for the pizzocheri……
