I go, didnt cousin give you the recipes? Theyre not exact, but they should be close. She was like, yeah, i just need an idea. (Italians are notorious for their loose recipes.) Its funny, my cousin is like my mother - glass half empty, whereas i think im more like my aunt, glass half full.

There's a page I follow that posts comments from people who are being painfully sanctimonious judgmental parents (names redacted of course). It's always funny because people like to add satire in the comments with increasingly absurd statements like, "I only feed my children the light of the goddess... but I'm sure you tried your best."
It gives me a good chuckle.
