They keep saying everything’s going to be all right

More signs stating that “Andra’ tutto bene” have appeared, so I thought I’d share them with you.  One can’t have too many, that’s for sure.

Amazing how they color-coordinated the poster to the laundry. Does Giorgio Armani live there?
Signed by the artists, as are most of them.  Marco and Nora did a very nice job.
Above the cash register at the Prix supermarket, everything is absolutely going to be all right.  The cashier said, “Our kids made them.”  They’re obviously destined for greatness.
It’s like Christmas met Cinco de Mayo in here.
I just have to put this one front and center. Rainclouds on the left side of the rainbow, heartclouds on the right. (Bonus: In the center, he’s written “Duri i banchi,” a very typical expression which roughly means “Brace yourselves on the benches.” This refers to the benches used by rowers in the Venetian galleys going into war — think Ben-Hur: “Ramming speed!” and then the collision).  If there ever were a moment when this expression was needed, it would be now.  I want Mirko to adopt me.
And speaking of the cash register at the Prix, they have installed a large Plexiglas panel between the cashier’s face and those of the scores of passing customers. I’ll be curious to see if the Coop does the same.

  1. This is interesting and reassuring. I and my family are on day 4 of “lockdown” in a county outside of Philadelphia, where the most infections are in my state. It’s boring and anxious making at the same time! It’s nice to know you all are still doing ok, able to shop for food etc.

  2. Keep these postings coming Erla !
    Somehow it helps, not like reporting here from Napa such as

    in a panic ” their out of wine at trader joes ! ”
    Wine hording ??

  3. I love you all! Such spirit! And you make my heart smile. I have two terraces with railings and would so love to put out an “Andra tutu bene” banner, but Bella Sera would probably have me committed. Still…I have fun thinking about it and may (in the days of enforced inactivity)work up my nerve.

    1. By this time next week, the landscape (in every sense) may well have changed. You can think about it then.
