Make of that what you will.

I didn't realize that about her (and didn't care enough to Google it). I kinda thought the Italian was a put-on.
Either way, I was really just jumping at the chance to legitimately use the word "penis".

Going back to people who over-enunciate their words. I watched an episode of Simple Delicioso. I had to change it after 10 minutes b/c the hostesss (didn't care enough to pay attention to her name) does the same thing Giada does but with Spanish words. That just drives me crazy especially b/c I speak Spanish & know there is no real reason to over-enunciate these words. She speaks perfectly fluent English yet insists on doing this emphasis to Spanish words. Really? Ugh!

Thinking about it, I think that it's because a lot of people might not KNOW what those words are so if you over emphasize bruschetta then they know oh it's Italian and it's pronounced THIS way rather than BREW SHETTA.
I dunno, it still bugs.

Bumping just because I really love the Halloween themed shows they have on right now. I'm looking forward to watching these since I'm at home just waiting for baby to make her arrival.

Bumping to spare the other thread.
And yes, I'm hungry.
