Dunkin' Donuts!
The donuts are the typical American dessert and if you go to USA, you can’t avoid to stop at the Dunkin’ Donuts for a donut and a cup of coffee. The Donut is a deep-fried from a flour dough, shaped in rings and it can contain topping or filligs of jelly, chocolate, sugar, ecc. You can find them at bakeries, supermarkets, food stalls or fun fairs. When we go to United States we have to get a donuts with a cup of coffee at the Dunkin’ Donuts, it is the only reastaurant which stay open after the Boston Maraton, because the police officers can’t live
without donuts. William Rosenberg founded Dunkin’ Donuts in Massachusetts in 1950. It servers 5 million customers for day, they have 70 varieties of donuts. Also in Italy there are a few shop opened in the summer of 1999 in Rome. It was for tourists when they were visiting the Trevi fountain or when they arrive at Roma Termini. Unfortunately, the shops closed a couple of years later.

Superstition - Numerology - Color
SUPERSTITIONS
Superstitions are beliefs created by ancient populations and they allude future events. In my town we have so many superstitions like:
1. Break a mirror, in practice if you break it, you break your spirit and you'll have seven years of unlucky things;
2. Break a bottle of oil, in the past the oil was very expensive for family, it was almost a wealth and if you broke it you were unlucky.
3. An another superstitions is the legend of number 17, in roman number 17 was XVII, it is the anagram of VIXI, and it means 'death'.
There are some popular superstitions, but that really stuck me is the one who speaks about Albinos. In Borneo, Africa, it is believed that Albinos are all white because their real dad is the moon; more depressingly, Albino body parts are considered to be magical amulets, and they are often murdered in an effort to acquire them. I don't belive in superstitions, seem legends, I don't like legends and for this I have never experienced anything.

FAVOURITE COLOR
Blue is the coolest and most calming of all the colors. As the color of the sky, it has been used since ancient times to represent heaven. In classical mythology, blue was the color associated with the Gods, Venus and Jupiter. In Christianity, it becomes the symbol of the Virgin Mary as Queen of Heaven. As the color of the ocean, it is also suggests qualities like freshness, purity and hygiene. The calmness of blue is seldom more visible than in this 'nocturne' of the River Thames by Whistler. The view is at twilight from Battersea looking across the Chelsea. The style is strongly influence by Japanese art of 'ukiyo-e' which translates as 'pictures of the floating world'.
