Got a question do you all believe like me that when your nonna does the rhyme and puts the oil in the water you get better if your sick? I swear it works!!!! My wife doesnt believe me. I forgot what its called

[Sam_Boss260]

It's called... sorry about the spelling ..... malocchio (evil eye).

And yes, we believe it too !!

[Padrino90]

hahahahaha...ohh man these ital families are all alike....yes it is strange but i actually believe it works to...they say the our father and other prayers....the more the oil spreads out it in the water the stronger the malocchio.....lol....then the matches are lit and thrown in to kill the malocchio...

There wouldn't be many that didn't cop it. I even love going to those old style deli's but I don't seem to see them that much in Sydney anymore

im not italian but my ex is, i remember tomato sauce days very well (good days ). i had to learn how to speak italian because everytime he had an argument, she used to go off in italian ( i wanted to understand what she was yelling at me )

a lot of my mates are italian, and me being a chef, i've picked up alot of their cooking skills. man the italians cook the best food

i think you can still find the old style delis in haberfield, leichardt. i think my mates cafe in cammeray sells all the antipasti stuff (maggio's on miller st).

you're making me hungry now
