Churros versus cornetti

Life is also made of minor pleasures.

One of them is breakfast’s pastry.

In Roma the choice is obvious: cappuccino and cornetto. The best is the cornetto baked by Il Cigno, especially the old way, before they changed confectioner.

On the other hand, in Barcelona you have a satisfactory alternative proceeding from the South: churros. Thin or bold, with sugar, coming hot from the pan.

Churros and cornetti contribute to make mankind better than it naturally would be, and the cooks would deserve a Nobel prize for peace. A big medal made by chocolate.

Freedom versus equality

The other day, a politician (probably Piquè) was interviewed on TV about the difference between left and right. He answered that right-wing people like better freedom, while leftists prefer equality.
The answer is not wrong. But it is not exhaustive.
Left-wing people may prefer equality, but generally want also freedom (at least, I hope so), whilst rightist ones do not mind about inequality, considering it as normal.
