I started reading Harry Potter e la Pietra Filosofale! (Three cheers for public libraries!)
It is very slow going. I'm still in the first chapter.
There are a lot of things I've forgotten about the first book. Admittedly, it's been over ten years since I last read it. I'm learning lots of new vocabulary as well ('un gufo', per esempio, is an owl).
Songs for the week:
I am now in the 40s. How time flies...
Love and miss you all.
Hey, I just noticed: It's the blog's birthday today!! :)
ReplyDeleteHey guys! I don't mean to be annoying, but I just found out about some really cool things I wanted to share with you!

This is a really cool sounding event. Basically, you sign up and choose a book you like from the list. They give you a location to pick up a box of 20 or so copies of said book, then you go out and give them to people! For free!! Unfortunately I think the deadline to sign up is Tomorrow....

Absolutely not annoying.
