11. In Bocca Al Lupo! (Intermediate)
Level: Intermediate

When someone is taking a trip, one way to wish that person off is to say, “in bocca al lupo,” which means, “in the mouth of the wolf”. Let’s wish “in bocca al lupo” to Giovanna (aka Jane), who is taking a trip to… the kitchen, ready to cook dinner for everybody. Some say she cannot cook, she says everything’s under control. Dinner’s served!
