one of my italian favorites:
"caramella, mortadella, mandarino, bacinella" literally mean "candy, cold cuts, tangerine, small basin"
Translating these Italian words strung together, as in a telegram, you get:
Cara Mella (è) morta Della, manda Rino. Baci, Nella.
Dear Mella, Della died. Bring Rino. Kisses, Nella.

About Me
- Miele
- I think of lots of complicated projects for myself, and occasionally start working on one. I'm surrounded by the most interesting, erudite, kind, dynamic, creative, industrious, generous, energetic people on the planet. I have four superstar siblings, I've jumped out of an airplane, set foot on four continents, lived in three, and studied seven languages (sfortunamente, I'm a Jackie of all, master of none).
