to be positive!

Chiù scuri di mezzanotti nun po' fari!

It: Più scuro di mezzanotte non può fare!

Engl: It can be darker than midnight!

E' vero, noi Siciliani ci lamentiamo sempre, ma in fondo in fondo siamo ottimisti, quasi sempre......

Questo è il proverbio equivalente a quello relativo alla bottiglia mezza piena o mezza vuota....

--------------------

It's true when people, the oters, say that we Sicilian always complain...
but at the bottom of the heart we are optimistic people,..more or less!

This is a way of saying in Sicilian equivalent to other about "the bottle half emty or half full..."

Busulmona: like Heaven!

Busulmona : XIXth  century farmhouse, once property of the  Cavaliere Sessa, today run by the family Di Pino. 5 km far from Noto it is immersed in a wonderful almond grove and carobs olives and all the colours of nature   make of this piece of Sicily a true paradise! It works as a B&B at the moment with only two bedroom, but it's also possible to have lunch tasting olive oil and almonds and wathever  what rigorously the family produce and cook for you!  Tranquillity, harmony, genuinity.. this are the things coming to my mind when I was there The name Busulmona , which is the name of all that area,comes from the Arabic and means the land of sun....  an extraordinary view  from the stone terrace on the Val di Noto, from Noto to Vendicari and Marzamemi... . for further information : www.busulmona.com
