eating cakes
We are at a picnic, in a garden, on a lawn, there is a congress, or at home where I have children and family or outside under a tree. It's fall or maybe spring, the year is 1914 - 1918. People met to eat cakes, they were really hungry! It' s a party for the children, it's not sure the other people has been invited I think they are obliged to be there. There 's a lot to eat. The child of the previuos story has grown up and gives a party.
There are two cooks, one is old, her name is Elisa, Clara and the other is called Valeria, Nadia, Patrizia.
The 2 women know each other, they are friends, the are volunteering, they met in the country. They are waiters, in their group there also a man. They had a workshop in Bassano but they could also be a daughter in law and a mother in law, there are some girls wanting to help because you can’t leave children at home alone.
Outside the picture there a little lake with some boats, and birds singing, we can hear music, there’s an accordion playing a samba and someone is dancing tango.
The 2 women meet their boyfriends, one of them is going to marry. One of the boyfriends is called Giuseppe he is a workman, a woodman and the other name is Adjel and is a nurse or Willy and is a technical. The 2 are thinking about their boyfriends and they are also imagining to make a nice trip. It’s tiring to work all of your time! One of the 2 women is almost blind. They are happy to stay outside in the garden and to find the food already cooked and people is happy to stay togheter, there ‘s a little hubbub because they are drunk, they hug and kiss. You feel good when you make cakes even if it’s a little tiring, someone lost her teeth eating cakes. Later they’ll make a walk but maybe it’ going to rain.
