Sophia Parisi's Rainy Day Production Presents:

The Three Little Pigs
Once upon a time a mommy pig said to her sons.'I don't want any mammone's livin under my roof, go out and see the world. But be careful of the wolf!'

The first pig built his house out of straw.
As soon as he was finished, he heard a knock on the door

Wolf: Little pig little pig, let me in.
1st Pig: Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin
Wolf: Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house in.
Then the wolf huffed and puffed and blew down the house of straw.

The 1st Little Pig ran to his brother the Second Little Pig, who had just built a house out of sticks. Just as soon as he was finished, they heard a knock at the door.

Wolf: Little pigs, little pigs, let me in.
1st & 2nd Pig: Not by the hairs of our chinny chin chins.
Wolf: Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house in.

Then the wolf huffed and puffed and blew down the house of sticks.

The 1st & 2nd Little Pigs ran to their brother the Third Little Pig, who had just built a house out of bricks. Just as soon as he was finished, they heard a knock at the door.

Wolf: Little pigs, little pigs, let me in.
1st & 2nd Pig: Not by the hairs of our chinny chin chins.
Wolf: Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house in.

Then the wolf huffed and puffed, but he could not blow that house of bricks down.

He tried a new tactic, he climbed the roof and was going to shimmy down the chimney and get those litte pigs! The little pigs were smart, they opened the lid to the boiling pot of water that was on the fire. The wolf went down the chimney, into the boiling pot of water, shot back up the chimney, cannoned out of sight and was never again heard of from the three little pigs.

The three little pigs were so delighted that they sang and the danced in the forest among the flowers.

The End!

This has been a Sophia Yukimi production.

salily (salvo and lily) came up to see little cicciarellino, massisimona invited everyone over for dinner. there was also some friends from germany. anyhow, the ham sophia went to take pix of everyone here is just a sample:

it's raining again...

i've been into french toast lately, so i saved the eggshells and we put them to a good use...eventually the 'hair' will grow in. we put in mini green onion seeds (the only hairy like thing i have in the house), but i didnt read that you should boil the shells first, dang.

bike

after ncrea, we came home and had some lunch. then we joined pietro and his cousin elettra on the naviglio for some bike riding and to play in the park. sophia sure has changed-she's grown some sack. she gave us a scare when she ran off to another park and didnt tell us. usually when she would realize that we were far away, she would start to panic-not anymore. we called for her, but there were so many kids that she was hard to find. we only found her when she poked out to run to some other toys. anyhoo after we got some popcicles and the kids sat on the bench and enjoyed themselves, they looked so cute i had to snap a picture.

Ncrea

we found the quarry lakes of brugherio-Greta told me about a park that is right near where she had her graduation dinner and we went on a little adventure to find it. Actually it was quite easy and very near and really nice, but not crowded at all. Sophia had a nice time and even saw her friends ledio and pamela there.
