A little something for Italians...

They forgot the 2nd kitchen in the basement, I still have one.
I still eat my salad last,...with extra vinegar, it helps digestion.
2 of my 3 bathrooms are All tile, not to mention the kitchen with its floral pattered ceramic floors and the marble floors thru-out the rest of the rooms.
( I bought it from an another old Italian couple)
Both my folks passed in the past few months and as I'm going thru all the stuff, I cant decide whether to keep the electric pizzele maker or the old cast iron one you heat over the stove.
In one of my mom's boxes of treasures, I found a broken wooden spoon that I distincly remember (almost made me cry).
That site is sooo on its funny.If there ain't no gold at the end of the rainbow, I'll settle for the pot.

HAH! We have the second kitchen as well...it's where I live. An Italian house always has to have atleast 2 ovens. We've got the marble too.They forgot the 2nd kitchen in the basement, I still have one.

As for the pizzele maker...keep them both. Some day you might make them again.
As for the wooden spoon....I can't tell you how many beatings I've had with a wooden spoon, both from my grandparents and my parents. Those things hurt! -
Ugh, getting hit with a wooden spoon was the WORST.If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

I had a wooden spoon broken over my back.
That was the last time my grandmother ever did that.
I turned around after it happened and said "Don't do that again."
Not that I would ever pummel my grandmother but when the spoon breaks before I do, it kinda makes the spoon useless.Expert Moron Extraordinaire
You're just jealous 'cause the voices don't talk to you! -

I know that's why I believe they sold them by the lot. :eek:
One may never know when you need another spoon, due to breakage.

Forget the spoons. How fast was your mom with a slipper. I never saw that sucker coming. Of course that all started the day I laughed when my mom smacked me for being stupid.
And by the way it is all gravy, Red, Brown , Chicken whatever. It's gravy baby.
I felt like I was reading my family biography. Great link.. -
Yeah, that was a big mistake, laughing after mom hit ya with the spoon or the slipper.If there ain't no gold at the end of the rainbow, I'll settle for the pot.

We're not Italian, but we did a lot of that stuff since we lived in the north side of Chicago. Thanks for the link.

My favorite was the threat "Wait until your father gets home"
My dad would come in and mom would give him the 411. He would call me in the room after and act all mad until she left. Then he would just look at me and say "Why do drive your mom crazy" That would be the end of it..
