FAQ:
Who is this lady?
Gina Petitti was born in 1935 in Faeto, Italy. It is in the province of Foggia in the Puglia region of southeast Italy. Her family ran a farm in Italy and she met her husband, Vito, in the same town. In 1970 Gina, Vito, and her 4 children immigrated to America. Gina’s husband passed away in 2012, but she is surrounded by a large family, which includes 9 grandchildren, and lives 5 minutes away from her eldest daughter in New Jersey. Gina enjoys making food for her family in the same old fashion ways as she was taught by her mother and grandmother in Italy, and also new things she has subsequently learned from family and friends in America. She also enjoys gardening, and being an active member of her local Church.
Where does Gina get her recipes?
Most of these recipes are from what she learned growing up in Italy, but some of them have evolved over time. She has also learned new recipes from friends and family in America. She is always eager to try new things.
Why is no one helping her in the video?
Grandma Gina doesn’t want help! Usually, it’s because we will slow her down or not do it “her way.” For the videos we only show her, but when the camera cuts we jump in and help form the cookies or prep for the next step.
Why don’t we buy her a new...?
Grandma Gina has a closet and garage full of new gadgets, spoons, forks, pots, etc… but she doesn’t like them because she is used to doing it with her old tools. She has fun getting her hands dirty!
Who is behind the camera and behind the scenes?
Grandma Gina’s retired son-in-law, Nick, does the filming, editing, production, and channel management. Her daughter, Maria, helps with food preparation, kitchen setup and fan support. Also, Grandma Gina usually has one or two grand-kids in the kitchen to help.
Does Gina read the comments?
We print out and show her how much love she gets from all her viewers, and she is very thankful and hopes you enjoy her cooking! Your comments bring her lots of joy, laughter, and inspiration to make more videos to share with you.
Thank you for watching, we hope you subscribe, and we will see you in our next video! - Навчання та стиль
I'm just seeing this. I can't tell you how happy these three made me. Sweet Sister Lucia and her quiet way, probably always knew she would serve God. Baby sister Maria was always cherished and Gina was the Boss. All that love that they have for food and life. What treasures they are.
Nonna Gina and her sisters are national treasures. Thank you for teaching us how to cook. 🇮🇹🇺🇸
You need to add the 🇨🇦 flag as her sisters live in Canada. Good eating yummy
I miss my mother and my grandmother and all of my aunts & when I watch this show it’s like they’re all back. 🥰What a blessing to still have them here! I’m so glad that somebody thought to put them on UA-cam where they can be preserved forever!
Amen.
Yes, it brings back of cooking with my family.
lost my mother 68 years ago but me and my 2 sisters have wonderful memories of her, she also would make homemade pasta and put a clean sheet on the bed to lay the pasta on it to dryI'm 80 now and still miss her so much
We always miss our Mammas no matter what our age😞 What an amazing memory that you have of your mother! Thank you for sharing your experience here. These women are so beautiful and wonderful. Much love to you ❤️
❤️
I feel the same. 🥰💕❤️
How happy and excited Gina is to see her Sisters! God bless them!
Amen
Very emotional
as a guy from a mixed but broken family, this episode was especially touching. i loved everything about it.
I love the way Sister Lucia has learned -- through years of family and convent life -- to be quiet, helpful, and modest! I can tell she's probably thinking: "Let everyone else have center stage. I'll just watch."
I know! Love her!
@@denisegirmer4550 Isn't she sweet?
My moms sisters ( she had 12) thre decided the would cook after soo many years ,so the made the well of flour and cracked the eggs into the middle, oooh the forgot the table had leaves soo the eggs were leaking down the space , my aunts always made fun out of everything but none were the great cook hptheir mom was ,I think I came close because I watched my grandma,
@@susanfennimore3152 Thank you for the update! Learning by watching is the very best way.
@@susanfennimore3152 Hilarious!
This brought such Joy to see the three sisters making the pasta together. I enjoyed the prayers before making the pasta, Stories of Papa, stories of childhood, and this song made my day. Blessings ladies, thank you!
Hello Tracy
How are you doing today?
No matter what race we all have are own recipes for pasta. Noodles,etc. I do believe our Chinese brothers. & sisters were first in creating noodles.
Being from a huge Italian family, I could not watch this without the tears in my eyes! I have know so many good times like this! So happy to see this sweet reunion and the joy and the pride you all have to prepare this laborious pasta for your family. It's a feeling you can't describe. Thank you for this video. It is why the Christmas season is so joyful to me because it brings back so many precious memories! I never knew you could make the cavatelli by hand and so many! It looked like a really joyful time!
Carmela I too had and still do have tears in my eyes~~So touching
I’m not and I had tears in my eyes too! Seeing these three sisters singing and enjoying cooking all together!
Me too. ❤️
Oh Gina, thankyou so much for this video. I was so happy to see you again and to get to know your sisters and your canadien family. It brought tears to my eyes. That’s what you call true love
What a beautiful family . Thankyou with love from France. God bless you all.❤❤❤
I agree, I close my eyes and I can smell, and relive the memories
I love this show, I'm an Afro-American who loves to cook and I've tried some of these recipes. I'm also a musician and I love the singing, it is so moving. Gina I pray long life to you and yours.
I don't want to make a big deal cause your afro...but I will …thank you for your appreciation of our food...my second favorite is of course southern friend chicken, collard greens, okra, cornbread. when I was a kid I thought sports would bring us harmony...but no, it's a food :) Blessings.
@John J 😂😂😂
Sweetheart, honey, I'll be gentle.
I grew up in NYC. Now the reason I say this is because I had the pleasure of meeting people from a lot of countries.
I was also the first person of color in an all white catholic school during the 80's. They were mostly Italian and irish.
My grandmother lived next door to an Italian couple from Sicily that barely spoke English, if any, during the early 70's.
Fun fact. I'm considered "Afro-American/African American/black..." yet I'm mixed with native indigenous, Caribbean indian, and Danish.
Caucasians have 1 point of view when it comes to what is considered Afro-American. They all assume we eat the things you listed but it's 100% inaccurate.
Since I don't know you, I want to believe it was an innocent assumption so I will explain this in kindness.
In my family, we didn't eat any of what you stated.
Fried chicken, cornbread, okra, yada yada... is indicative to the SOUTH and not just because a person is considered black.
My mother's father was from the South. They ate ALL of that and then some. But my grandmother didn't cook any of that until he taught her.
The food eaten in my family was a mixture and it included authentic Italian food and just a little of southern food.
The little old Italian couple taught my grandmother how to make a few traditional foods from Sicily 😊❤. My grandmother could make a mean Lasagna, stuffed cabbage, stuffed shells, manicotti ❤❤❤.
So I implore you to - first - ask every Afro-American what food they cook before assuming its the only thing we eat. We are not all the same by any means.
My family is a result of people from Bermuda (Caribbean & british), St. Croix (Caribbean indigenous) and Copenhagen on my mother's - mother's side and Afro-American (kentucky) and Cherokee on my grandfather's side.
Just a history lesson, the reason blacks in the south eat any of that stuff is because they were taught to by the slave owners because many of them worked in the kitchen and later as housekeepers in white homes.
Deep fried southern traditional food is not a staple of the original African community during colonialism.
Originally, African slaves had no idea what that was. They ate vegetables, grains, goat/sheep, cow and fish, herbs and spices. They didn't have many of the animals like pig to make bacon or pork chops, or lard, fatback, tripe, pigs feet... that is all from caucasian slave owners.
But the Africans coming into the country now only know this food depending on where they pass through. So if they go straight to NYC, they will encounter Caribbean food, Spanish food from Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, etc. Ironically those traditional foods include many staples from Africa.
@andreat672 I'm from the south. Thanks for your kind words and gentleness.
What does it matter what color you are. Food is not about that. Got it?
I am sicilian, from NY, and this is what my Nonnas ( grandmas) house was like every Sunday. Full of food, family, friends, and good times! The neighborhood new on Sunday, that all were welcome when the Itialian music was playing, that everything was good. It makes no difference who you are, everyone is welcome...
My parents are gone, so watching these videos remind me of the happy times with my Italian family growing up. Brings tears to my eyes too. I wish the new generation understood the joy in a simple life!
I agree with you it's so true this generation will never understand how good we had it growing up around all of our family. Traditions were very important back then and still is today. Prayers heading your way for you and your family 🙏
@@frankrizzo4460 Thank you Frank! Same for you and Wishing you and yours a blessed Christmas!
Some of us do. 🙂
@marisarossini...thank you for saying for me so much better :)
I just could not love this more! Tears in my eyes watching the joy between these 3 sisters. Blessings to you all!
I had such joy in my heart watching Gina with her sisters chatting and singing away. The love and respect they have for each other shines through in the video. They are so sweet and bubbly with each other. I love how the younger sister does the bidding of Gina like a good baby sister. As a Canadian 🇨🇦 i was so happy to hear Gina came to Canada to visit. Please come back Gina and make more videos with your sisters❤️ 🙏🏾
Whoever is filming, thank you so so much for sharing these beautiful moments with us. I enjoyed it very much.
I’m so happy. I was so depressed today. I watch them tonight and I feel like I’m home. My entire family gone. You’re all blessed. Love you all !! 😊
La famiglia è al centro del cuore italiano. Dio ti benedica Lucia, Maria e Gina.
What an incredible experience it is to witness the love between you and your sisters! I am the youngest of 3 biological sisters. My "middle" sister was the victim of vehicular homicide 3 years ago this month. I still grieve deeply for her and miss her constantly! Seeing the love between the 3 of you, and enjoying your singing and cooking together truly blessed my heart today. God bless you, Grandma Gina, Lucia, and Maria❤. You make many people very happy.
🙏😥🤗🙋🏼♀️
I am so sorry for your loss of your sister. I know you must be hurting so deeply. I pray you find peace and solace throughout this year and the next to come.
So sorry for the loss of your beloved Sister. Prayers said for our Lord and Savior to ease your pain and give you comfort and peace of mind. God Bless you. 🙏🏻✝️🇺🇸🥰
@@lisamyers8407 Beyond all, I am eternally thankful for the prayers since we lost Tonya. I know, without a doubt, that my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, is the only reason I've been able to function thru this grief.
May God bless and comfort you until you meet again.
Nonna making cavatelli with her sorelle; priceless 💕
God Bless Oliveu ✝️☦️☮️❤️
Not a gray hair in sight!
Lord, it’s me again😇… please let find the joy of life and simplistic happiness in my golden years, as these three angels, Amen.
love to see Italian Grandma with her sisters cooking and singing together ^_^
An Italian choir…!!! What could be better than that…??? Especially with the fond memories they have of their father and mother.. my heart is warmed…!!! The love they put in their food and their family is very apparent in their videos I’m so happy to see this example for the generations to come…!!! Thank you so much for sharing this with everyone…!!!
Signora Gina, La seguo dall'Italia...
Lei è proprio una persona ammirevole e sono orgogliosa che Lei rappresenti il nostro Paese.
É bravissima in tutto quello che fa.
Un caro saluto italiano.
Welcome to Canada Gina! The 3 sisters are SO sweet, I could watch them all day. Gina is very kind by letting her sister finish mixing in the eggs. You could tell she wanted to get in there and mix it herself but she's being a patient teacher. I always love seeing her sister, the Sister
I have tears watching these 3 sisters together and sharing stories. I feel the love they have for each other💗💗💗
Gina, you have such a beautiful soul! I wish everyone in this world could be as happy and grateful as you! I'm glad you are able to visit your sisters and family! Hope you all have a nice holiday season!
Absolutely love seeing all three sisters cook together and SING together! I almost cried when they sang together, their voices are so beautiful combined. I hope you can film more of their visit, I would be happy just to see them sit and talk and sing and relax.
This is so beautiful with your sisters making homemade Cavatelli. All made with LOVE! I'm so happy to see this Italian tradition still going strong, Thank you Nonna Gina, sending my love to you and your sisters...God Bless you all! ❤
This episode was SO special to watch! I LOVE this channel 💜💜 Thank you for sharing your recipes, your stories and for singing to all of us!! Watching your videos always makes my heart warm and happy!!
I dare anyone to watch without crying. It's just so beautiful. Am so happy to see Gina with her sisters cooking. Notbing beats family
Omg I thought I was the only one. Why does this make people cry to watch? For me I thought it was because there was 3 girls, me and my 2 sisters. One sister is no longer with us, so I thought that's why it made me cry. I Love this video. ❤❤❤
@@patriciacouch7214 she is so pure her joy her passion for her family . She reminds me of my Nonna who I miss so much.
@@domenicodiniro413 😂
I managed to hold it until they started singing Catholic hymns, being from an Italian family myself on my mother's side!
Seeing these beautiful sisters talking,singing,cooking and sharing their memories with us it touched my heart ♥️ and I am thankful 🙏🙏 and yes I am crying too 🌺🌸🌺 God Bless these beautiful women🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹
This was so sweet. You can see how happy they are to be together and cook together, remembering the old days
E bello vedere le tre sorelle coltivare le vecchie tradizioni di famiglia auguri dio vi benedica e tanti auguri per il sa to natale 🎅
Three sisters making Cavatelli. 100% PURE LOVE. I WANNA KISS YOU ALL
I loved how that three sisters broke out in song!!! After the last few years, it’s wonderful to see families able to be back together again- it made me get a little emotional. Truly truly enjoyed this show!!❤❤❤
This was such an absolute joy to watch. Brought me back to when my mother and grandmother used to make home made pasta. The accents are like music to me, Just like my grandmother used to speak.
Brings me to tears, remembering.
Hello Dianne
How are you doing today?
Gina, your older sister is a Sister! How wonderful. Thank you for sharing your wonderful life and memories!
Jesus and Mary keep you all in Their loving Hearts!
Watching this video brought tears to my eyes … wait I have to be truthful, 🙂 watching this video literally made me cry for so many different reasons. It was wonderful to see the joy in the sisters being together, it was wonderful to watch them work and sing together but most of all it was wonderful the way they were excited about the meal they were preparing for their family of 14. This brought back so many memories of growing up in my big Italian family and made me so sad that it is no more. I’m a big fan of Gina and I think this was her best video yet! Thank you for sharing your family with us! Dio benedica tua bella famiglia.
Omgggggggg she’s so happy with her sisters. This page warms my heart it’s too much
Grandma Gina, looks so happy with her sisters ❤ Thank you for including us in this beautiful reunion. May God Bless you and your family.
Che bello vedervi Tutte insieme.Dio vi benefice.,
There's nothing more beautiful than the Italian kitchen and food! ❤️
❤ when Maria signed of the cross and say a little bit of prayer. That a sign of a good Catholic Tradition. God bless you three sister's.
My husband's maternal grandmother was from Sicily. He loves watching this sweet lady-reminds him of his mother's family
I always cry when I watch your videos Ciao Maria Ciao Lugia just the sound of your voice and the love in your heart and the love I have for you is huge huge huge-you three beautiful ladies are such a joy to watch-and reminds me of my Mom and I in the kitchen or my Daddy and I also in the kitchen not asking just doing til it’s done-thank you for sharing this with us!!you wanna eat?you gotta cook ❤aww!the stories and the memories and songs you all have are golden
I love they pray before they start their cooking precious the beautiful voices of sisters singing and cooking I just imagine how it was for them growing up precious blessings these sisters are. Sooo glad they are together ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Words cannot express the love and happiness I receive from watching Gina and her family. This is a treasure and thank you for sharing these special times with us.
I hope you realize how much joy this video brings. I thank you for sharing this special gathering with your sisters and family.
My father in law was 100% Italian and my mother in law was 100% Lebanese. Unfortunately I missed out on many Italian cooking gatherings. My mother in law was a fabulous cook. She learned how to cook Italian food from her mother in law and she knew how to cook Lebanese. I wish I could have learned how to cook their recipes.
My grandma was a caterer (started cooking at the age of 12) who made the best food in the entire world. She was Slovakian and Austrian - she made many Eastern European dishes including Polish and German. (In addition to being Slovakian and Austrian, I am polish and German). I wish I had had the desire to learn from her.
All this cooking was done with family, love and happiness. Not only does the video prove that but the great taste of the food does as well. I wish we could go back in time and relive these gatherings.
I hope your holidays are filled with much love, joy, happiness and terrific food. God Bless.
I always smile when Gina sings.😊
Che emozione vedere queste tre belle sorelle insieme!
Portate gioia e serenità 😘
What joy to watch these three precious sisters not only enjoying each others company, but also creating handmade food with so much love poured into it :) 🥰 God Bless you all - our world needs so much more of this sort of content ! ~ Linda
Gina is sooo adorable. I love her spirit and good disposition to always do something to keep her busy and help her family ❤
Hello Maria
How are you doing today?
My hands and arms hurt just watching. Reminds me of my mother in law. She always talked about her father with love ❤️🙏🏻
I liked the video 2 seconds in...I LOVE YOU GINA! Lucia and Maria it is wonderful to meet you! This truly brings back memories for me...thank you all! I have happy tears and sad ones at the same time...hard to explain but all good just the same. Possa il Signore benedirvi tutti! Grazie per aver condiviso! Gina, ti considero la mia Nonna adottiva, visto che i miei veri sono andati in Paradiso da tempo, spero che accetti questo con la mia umile richiesta. Auguro a voi, alle vostre sorelle e alle vostre famiglie un Buon Natale e un felice, sano e ricco anno nuovo!
Sister Lucia is pure grace.
Maria Gina And Sister Lucia represent the millions of Italian women who are the joy and glue of our Italian lives
My Grandma and yours were hard working, God loving souls who gave their blood and sweat to their families
Thank you God for sending Italian mothers
omg.....what an absolute delight to see you three beautiful sisters working together and continuing the family tradition in song, stories, cooking and love. Happy belated Canadian Thanksgiving to Maria and family and Happy Thanksgiving to come to Lucia, Gina and family.
I wish there was a button for "love" instead of just "like". Fabulous to see the sisters so happy to be together ❤❤❤
this so reminds me of Eurovision. You never understand a word they're saying, but you just know they're happy 😂
Nonna Gina we love you ❤ God bless you and your Familie
Oh heavens!!! This is my favorite of all the videos you have put forth. The love, the singing, the working together. Don't get me wrong I LOVE Every video you make! We get to see Gina with her sisters! So beautiful!

Where is Gina in Canada?
@@salayna It's a govt secret :)
So happy to see you all! Beautiful watching the sisters cooking together, sharing memories and their joy. ❤ we love you Gina, God bless you and your family.
Young people need to learn from Nonna Gina. I'm 75 Italian born but I learn a lot from her. Cooking channels don't compare to Nonna Gina. She has yrs and yrs of cooking experience. PS I also love her singing. I know some of her songs too.
Beautiful I love how you pray before cooking . Brings many good Catholic family memories of cooking with family ❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
I just love watching Grandma with her sisters. The love they share is so wonderful.
Nonna Gina tutta l'Italia ti saluta!😍😍❤🇮🇹❤❤🇮🇹
Ciao Gina mi sembra essere in Italia quando quando il tuo show ,sei molto brava ? Grazie .
When I was a child I remember my Croatian relatives speaking the native language (loudly), playing cards, drinking (in acceptable way) and laughing together. The simple things were the most enjoyable. The old way is the best.
My little girl and I love to watch grandma Gina and love to hear her sing! But when we saw her and her sisters sing it may us so happy and she squeezed my tight!
Gina, it brought tears to my eyes watching how happy you were to be with your two sisters. It was a joy to watch you all work together. We all miss you. God Bless🙏🙏♥️
Best memories were my Gram (who couldn’t read or write and was from Naples) teaching me how to bake and cook. She’d come and stay with us for weeks. I’d go to her house for most of the summers and helped her in her large garden. She made her bread every day and all our friends, family and neighbors loves when she’d come to visit. This channel, and you Gina, make me cry with such love and happiness. May God Bless you.
Validates my childhood, having grown up in my grandparents' basement, converted to a modest apartment near White Plains, NY.
Humble beginnings can truly be a Blessing in disguise.
I love how you pray together before making the cavatelli, then work and sing together. I LOVE YOU ALL!!!! Sending you love & hugs from New York.❤🫂
You just made a grown old man cry with joy! What a family! Thank you for sharing!
Hi Gina! So great to see you cook again! It was really nice to see you so happy with your sisters, I saw on your instagram you met up with them a few weeks ago. Thanks for the recipe ❤️
I just love her. I wish she was my grandmother(mine passed long ago) she is amazing.
I bought a bag of cavatelli and it wasn't what I remember. They were like little pellets. Watching you & your sisters that is what I remember. GINA YOUR THE BEST. My family is from Molise. LUV YOUR FOOD!
Ciao Nonna Gina, your videos bring back so many of my family memories, I love them. Cavateli was the most favorite pasta that my nonna used to make and every Sunday the whole family used to come over for dinner. Now that everybody has grown older and moved out of the city to the suburbs and to different states, those Sunday dinners never take place anymore but those memories remain. My nonna taught me how to make cavateli when I was about 4-5 years old and now at the age of 62 I continue to make cavateli for my family. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Salute da Napoli, Florida. ❤❤❤
My heart....so lovely and emotional (in a good way) to see the three sisters together. There's no bond like it. I'd love to know what Lucia said at 6.45 mins when Maria and Gina had a ty kiss! So sweet. Maria reminds me of my little sister...the feisty one ha! Lucia a bit more shy. And Gina...what can we say...we all love her. Thanks for sharing this reunion xx
3 beautiful women, cooking , singing, that are sisters... Makes me miss Sundays at my Nonnas with the entire family there.... so happy to see you tell the stories of your family Nonna..Love you, and keep the videos comming!
Dear Granma Gina, This is a beautiful cooking school and all the sisters are so happy. I had happy tears for all your family , the pasta looked so delicious could taste them. God Bless the three sisters and their families. The singing was so sweet, you could hear the happiness and love in your voices. Love, Happy Thanksgiving to all.
Thank you. I’m afraid this pasta is lost to time in my life. No one left to help, and my arthritis won’t let me do it alone. Thanks for sharing.
The secret ingredient no food manufacturer or restaurant can match...love.
This got to be the best Cavatelli with 3 authentic Italian grandmas working on it
Dear Gina, you and your sisters brought back so many wonderful memories. I am 76 years old but I remember my mother and my two aunts, Aunt Rosa,. Aunt Maria, and my mother Mary Anna getting together to make pasta and other wonderful Sicilian goodies. The family was from Trabia, Sicily. Thank you so much for sharing that wonderful video. Linda Chimera Alvarez from New Orleans, LA
What can possibly be more precious than Nonna Gina cooking and singing in the kitchen? Nonna Gina with her two sisters cooking and singing in the kitchen! Loved this video -- thank you for sharing your wonderful family get-together with us -- Benedica tutti! 💖💖💖
You're bringing tears to my eyes watching you all prepare everything is taking me back to my family when we all prepared as well..most are all passed away but this is wonderful memories..Us Italian women have strong hands..God bless you all!
I wish i could've been there when they prayed their Rosary.. ...you know they did!!! This reminds me of my Zia's Giuessapina, Barnardina & Nonna one in the front kitchen 2 in the open back kitchen. Bought tears of joy & tons of memories!!!
Dio vi benedica Mama Petitti e sorelli!
I remembrer my nonna, Angelina, teaching me that move to shape the cavatelli, as a child with my face barely high enough to see upon her kitchen table. In Montreal's little Italy, she was tops, other nonnas woul come to her for cooking advice. Yep! Brings me tears of Joy. She also had two sisters, Marie, of course, and Adèle. She passed 25 yrs ago... I can still smell her cooking.🇮🇹
My tears are tears of joy. The love between these three sisters is so evident and such fun times had. Bless you all and I’m so happy to be able to learn some of your family traditions. Take care ladies, love from Australia xxxxxx
Hello Joanne
How are you doing today?
Welcome back 🌹 whether I ever make these or not! I just love to watch this team just how they work together seamlessly! Thank you 🙏
So much love 💕 beautiful story telling! Ps after watching this I went into my local Italian store and bought a packet of home made cavatelli ! Maybe one day we can see the whole family together eating together before you leave Canada ?
What a great video Gina! I'm Sicilian and I make sausage with the family. 50 pounds! So nice to be with family. I'm glad you now have this memory recorded. Thanks for sharing this wonderful event. God bless you and your family.
Oh my sweet Nona Gina…this was so truly beautiful to see you and your precious sisters together…a little slice of heaven…god bless xox
I cried with the baby sister so much love in that kitchen 🥰🥰🥰
Gina so happy you got to see your sisters you remind me so much if my mother that I lost 11 years ago! You even speak our dialect ! I love listening to you when you speak Italian! ❤❤❤
So wonderful! Beautiful sisters coming together to cook; laugh and share stories! Love listening to them sing!! There is nothing more delicious than handmade fresh pasta, so much work involved, but so very worth it!! My grandmother, who passed at 107, used to love and sing Tarantella and other songs in Italian! I come from a Sicilian family and every Christmas, usually starting shortly after Thanksgiving, we all get together and start making our Italian fig cookies from scratch and then the caponata from scratch. It’s a lot of work but it makes for great memories, (especially when wine is involved), fun and a lot of good food!! It’s a tradition that we’ve had for many, many years! Love videos like this!! ❤❤
This brings back my childhood memories in my Nonni’s kitchen.
What a warm and wonderful family! This was such a special time Grandma Gina shared with us! Thanks to you and your sisters! ❤️
Being from an Italian family also living in Canada.I remember my mom and her sister making homemade pasta just like that and other pasta. My mother and my Zia are both gone.I only wished I learned how to make homemade pasta. But after watching these beautiful sisters.I will make then for my family at Christmas..
Thank you Gina,Maria and Lucia…
By the way my mom’s name was also Lucia. She passed away in 1975 at the age of 37…
God Bless you three.
So cool seeing Miss Gina’s sisters! This video is priceless. ❤
My Sicilian grandparents loved to cook. Loved pasta forno. And the stuffed peppers with crispy bread,Madonna Mia.
BEAUTIFUL to see all the sisters together!! 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹❤
Thank you all so much for this wonderful video of three sweet sisters enjoying their time together. My heart is so happy for them❤❤❤
Such precious memories both for these beautiful sisters and for me. This is what a Grandmom is . There's nothing like it. Everything with so much love♥️
My Nona had a wood cook stove and an electric stove in her kitchen. Used the wood stove for 90% of her cooking. Made bread every day. Amazing person.
When I was a child, my great grandmother didn't speak much English. But she could rattle off and sing in Italian for hours on end. She also used to pinch my cheeks so hard it brought tears to my eyes. Every Sunday, we ate dinner in the basement of her house. She had two gas oven and two brick ovens. Those were the days. I never knew what I had at the time but I sure do, now.
