MIRALDA HOW OLD R U?

MIRALDA COLOMBO - journalist and food blogger/il cucchiaino di alice How was your cot – and bed as a child? I had a classic rocking cradle, I think so by my baby pictures… Pastel colors wood, bedding, carousel. Since the beginning my bed has been for a bigger child with a winter blanket printed in the middle with a saint bernard dog. I love to go under it inventing imaginary tales with my torch.

Which was your favorite dish your mum used to cook for you? What meal didn’t you like at all? I has been a good eater, I eat vegetables or soups. I have to say... I do not go crazy for the cabbage's world. My mom doesn't not like coocking but she often makes hand made pasta and I love helping her. Probably that's the reason why I have started to coock with Alice very soon, making pizza and coockies. For babies is a wonderful moment, magic.

What was your favorite book? I am divided among Alice in Wonderland, Pippi Longstocking and Anna with red hair. All of them have in common incredible and quirky adventures! I am a super lively child.

Did you have an imaginary friend? Sure, her name is Anna, she lives in a wood with many nymphes able during the night to become trees. Anna is also the person to whom I dedicate my diary’s pages.

What do you want to do when you grew up? I have no precise ideas about this… I dream to be able to travel through space and time (not really a job), maybe I could become a war reporter, as Oriana Fallaci or Tiziano Terzani to change the world and help people.

MICHAELE HOW OLD R U?

MICHAELE - Kalon Studios, designer How was your cot – and bed as a child? The crib is a yellow and white crib that is a hand-me-down from my mother's sister. The sides come up and down. It is a simple, standard design for the time. All cribs look alike. The bed I have is my mom’s from when she was little. It is a dark-cherry, twin-size bed with head and foot boards. I decorate the headboard with autumn leaves stuck on with toothpaste. The leaves crumbled off sort of quickly but the blue toothpaste is there forever.

Which was your favorite dish your mum used to cook for you? What meal didn’t you like at all? The same. Apparently, my favorite is spinach and then it became my least favorite.  I have drawings from then that say NO SPINACH scrawled across them. According to my mom the change is based on a sudden awareness of color on my part. Other favorites: spicy food, vinegar, candy, brie, pate, peanut butter and jelly, and steak.

What was your favorite book? I have a lot of favorites: Madeline. Good Night Moon. The Ox Cart Man.

Did you have an imaginary friend? A ton. Joey and Smookey (he wear glasses) are my best friends. There are loads of them. I even have an imaginary enemy – Monica. She is awful.
