Aunt #1: Try this combination of salad, which is what I'm having now for lunch: arugula, sliced or halved marinated kumquats, (marinate them in a bit of EVOO for couple hours), sprinkles of blue cheese + a bit of olive oil and lemon juice. Very refreshing.
Aunt #2: What's EVOO?
me: Extra virgin olive oil.
Aunt #3: C'est quoi, EVOO?
Aunt #1: vina vient de dire: extra virgin olive oil
Dad: Extra virgin olive oil! Don't you watch cooking shows?!
Aunt #1: Only Rachel Ray calls it EVOO. The others, Bobby Flay, the fat Italian guy, and the Barefoot Contessa, they talk normally and don't abbreviate.
Aunt #2: I don't watch cooking shows. I watch Breaking Bad - they cook meth.
