vuoi (vuole?) parlare italianese

[Alameda]

please please I beg on my knees

oh god and those things filled with every imaginable sweet thing

no no on second thoughts, I need to lose a few kg

cannolu? but not those, I don't know how they make the ricotta like silk because it's usually all grainy isn't it?

also where would I get the orange blossom stuff from? :(

Ciao a tutte e ben tornata Alameda!

La caponata non la so fare, e' troppo difficile!

Alex, che belli tutti questi progressi del tuo bambino! Concentrati su di lui e nice wine stasera!

Si, caponata... cipolle e aglio, forsi schegghiari a lassari l'avutiri, ma non so la stessa si assagiari? Ma you can try lots of different ones and make your own! PS That feeds all my lot, you maybe want to half it

L'ossi di morti! Okay. So you have the same amount of flour and sugar, and you add crushed cloves and cinnamon to it using a tiny bit of water, when it's smooth and sticky roll it out and make a serpi (about a nail thick) put them on a tray, cover with baking paper and leave them for 3 days. Then you bake them them until the sugar melts at the bottom. If you leave them to cool they'll come off easily.

Cannoli? Orange blossom?

Alex no wonder you are worried :(

oh cloves of course, I couldn't think what the taste was although I notice your lot are big fans of cloves in everything, sweet or salty!

thank you so so much, I looked at some recipe books but they were intimidating, will make caponata tomorrow :)

I looooove cloves. I was eating the clove rock out of the jar today, DH was not impressed

Let us know how you get on!

Ciao Franca- come la schiena?

I'm shuddering here, how can you!

Hope I have time to cook, am really behind on the novel in a month project. So far it's just soft porn with a distinct Sicilian theme I need about another 3000 words by tomorrow.

Maneggia, you better get typing!

You're supposed to eat clove rock... it's this type: www.oldestsweetshop.co.uk/buy-sweets/mint-herbal-sweets/clove-rock

oooh you are sooooo bad for my waistline

buongiorno

bleurgh

cosa fai oggi e domani?

Ciao a tutti. Oh che giornata

Oggi aiu travaggheru. Dumani avia travagghiara.

Vogghiu sparari una di donne che cu travaggheru, idda rispondo a recclamizzario for Saturday and Sunday work. Allora, PERQUE tutti fine di semmani, trubbula quannu vidi la rota? Sempre 'UGH, look who has to work Saturday and Sunday again' SI PERQUE TU SI WEEKEND STAFF!

Allora, mi soru e incinta. Ti ricordi che io dissi che DH and I adopted? Si, so figghiu. E ora? Chi si po fari? :(

Scustatimi for the depressingness. Argh.

Spero che vida e serena per te!

annunziata dimmi in inglese per favore, I am struggling a bit

hope you are ok?

Annunziata!

Sorry posted too soon. Do you think your sister can't look after this one too? Sorry, I dont know your story, sorry if I am being nosey.

Ciao, ciao. Sorry Alameda part a) is that I'm am going to kill one of the women who works for me, that is not important, she doesn't speak Italian so I have been cursing her all morning under my breath But I have not shot her yet so!

Part b) I pm'ed you.

Non so franca. Idda era molesta che mattina, (ma, indossa so high heel, peep toe, diamonte studded boots e ucchiali di sole... mamma mia). Idda e pigro, ma no droga or anything like that, nui pigghiati DS quannu idda divurzario, niente idda avia una travagghiu. Stava di mamma o na la casa siciliana. DS e scutuleneddu. Only to be expected.

Alora, vaiu a travaggheru.

Unni mi arma di fuoco?

thanks, think there is a problem with the pms at the moment but I got a few copies

am going to make a Real Effort to apply myself and learn your language Annunziata! I have to, my communications with a certain new friend from Sicily and his broken English are going straight to my minge and I can't think straight for hours although it is probably going to be the same in any language?

I really LIKE him

what I understand from your messages is making me sad though, there was a similar situation in my family

but I don't know what to say, except to hope for the best

Ciao a tutti, stasira sentu megghiu. She has got a job and is planning to move out of my mum's. Another

So maybe things will be okay. I feel terrible for DS3 though.

Thank you for being concerned

Dimmi tutti na stu omu sicilianu

some for you too

poor boy, I don't know how he gets his head around that

did MNHQ take out the tour guide link much further up the thread? It's him, I don't know what I can say here, except it's lovely to still get messages from him after such a disastrous attempt at having sex (I got a bit emotional and it all went horribly wrong) but mio dio, his physique, am filling my whole novel with it!

come si dice 'more research is urgently needed' in sicilianu/Italiano?

Avi bisognu di chiu ricera, mi penso

Ahh, e statu un colpo di fulmine...

No, avi bisognu di fari richerchi.

grazie!

I have that song in my head now, do you remember it, think is from 70s maybe 60s - grazie, prego scusi? Really irritatingly catchy chorus?

I have changed my mind again... Avi bisognu di fari chiu richerchi.

Dean Martin, no?
