'most americans' in the above comment by anonymous was actually aimed at you since i was referencing your blog - but their comment didn't say that 'most canadians don't know the proper terminology' - i am not sure why we were being scolded at all since they didn't know the proper usage of their own terms! laughing helpshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03419202929819268590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4259779034549832838.post-51137156793569543812013-06-22T22:23:42.687-07:002013-06-22T22:23:42.687-07:00Why did you make the assumption that I'm not k...Why did you make the assumption that I'm not knowledgeable? I am Italian and fully aware of the singular form unfortunately most people searching for the recipe will use the search term, Cannoli therefore I've used the term known to most. In fact, I believe I've written about the reference in one of my posts. Also you'll find "Cannoli" is widely used across Italy as well. Another thing to keep in mind, the name for a particular dessert or pastry often varies from one town to another.<br /><br />Have a great day.Grace Massa Langloishttp://gracessweetlife.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4259779034549832838.post-48485332151010716642013-02-11T17:45:20.431-08:002013-02-11T17:45:20.431-08:00also, i just checked the term "patisserie&quo...also, i just checked the term "patisserie" <br /><br />A pâtisserie is the type of French or Belgian bakery that specializes in pastries and sweets. In both countries it is a legally controlled title that may only be used by bakeries that employ a licensed maître pâtissier (master pastry chef)<br /><br /><br /><br />laughing helpshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03419202929819268590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4259779034549832838.post-32032461629609222232013-02-11T15:25:52.743-08:002013-02-11T15:25:52.743-08:00i am so sorry - the canadian whose blog i used (ht...i am so sorry - the canadian whose blog i used (http://gracessweetlife.com/2010/06/cannoli-siciliani-the-ultimate-italian-pastry/) apparently is as unknowledgable as us 'americans' - i shall update a.s.a.p. - thx for your correction<br /><br />what country are you from / now reside in? how many years have you been married to your aspie? can you email a link to your blog so i can see how you successfully manage your relationship? <br /><br />thank you for sharing...laughing helpshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03419202929819268590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4259779034549832838.post-3042836963135332992013-02-11T12:16:25.851-08:002013-02-11T12:16:25.851-08:00A singular canolli is a canollo or canollu.

"just making sure it's locked" he always will say... yes, dear! love you!!laughing helpshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03419202929819268590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4259779034549832838.post-81349785919021504462012-10-30T13:46:14.636-07:002012-10-30T13:46:14.636-07:00I came here via Asperger's Webring.

I do know that he has this weird rule about putting nails on the wall for pictures. After years of crying about it, he finally relented and put 2 nails in. I'm sure it still bugs him. In fact, he used extra strength velcro to hang a coat rack on the wall. <br /><br />I have to wonder if that qualifies as a "rule."Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18119718461267453386noreply@blogger.com
