Disaster Sardinia, Italy

My thoughts go to the victims of the flood in Sardinia. To the people who have lost everything; their loved ones, homes and personal affections.

Pasta with chickpeas

This eveving for dinner I'm preparing pasta with ceci. A very quick plate that you can prepare in about 15 min. I use 2 cans (400 g each) of ready chickpeas, half union ena 5-6 cherry tomatoes. Put some olive oil in a pan and start to roast union,wtomatoes and a bit of salt for about 5 min.
In the mean time boil the water for the pasta.
After 5 min add the chickpeas to the union and tomatoes and let them roast together for about 5 min and then turn it off.
I use the pasta Pipe Rigate (a macaroni pasta) as the chickpeas easily enters in it.

When the pasta is ready mix it with the chickoeas and add some salt, white pepper and olive oil.

Buon appetito!

23 October 2013 - Thinking Netherlands Antilles

Last night after work I decided to go for a run as lately I'm not doing any sports. I only ran for 3.5 km but what a effort!! I do feel that I'm not going swimming anymore because my condition really sucks! I came back red as a tomatoe and I thought I was going to faint....luckily I managed to recover quite quickly and I actually felt good afterwords. Now the hard thing will be to keep up with running 2-3 times a week...the negative thing is that this morning I woke up with a slite head ache and thick eyes...
Always at this time of the year I get in some kind of depression and I always start to look for warm places where to transfer and yesterday I checked out the Netherlands Antilles. It really seems a paradise, it's around 25°C all year, perfect, and I could really immagine my self moving there! I checked work possibilities and it seems quite ok. The only thing I ask my self, how would it be living on an island? Will you not feel limited? I mean, on the island Bonaire (one of the caribbean islands) the population is 16,541, that means the have of the population in the city where I live in now....would I not get crazy?!?! But maybe the weather conditions and the life would let me forget that....I need to check some things out first and then I will make my valuation....
