my mother was a micro-sicily-southern type
black lists and great loves
an existencialist Etna about to explode
always hardworking
always daydreaming
black coffee & smoke
I like to remember her
when I toast bread
and I mix it
with albahaca & olive oil.
& albahaca over it.

http://www.andalunet.com/albahaca/ I don't think this is what you were talking about.
I was trying to google and pose, not a clue about albahaca.
But Rose always bought Pompeian Olive Oil. As poor as we were because of crazy mikes poker loses, she would only buy the best for us. My sister in law Diamond Lil tells me that my family is very emotional like most Mediterranean people
She had a chance for love after he died, but her daughter did not want another man in the house again. So she sacrificed for her daughter. Which is noble. But she always reminded my sister how much happiness she lost because of her. Which isn’t so noble. She never smoked, never drank much except for Manashevitz at pass over. It was the cancer of the esophagus that finally killed her. A good death at home, Diamond Lil a RN family practioner, nursed her through it. Coffee bagels and lox. Terrible at baking, but her soups were divine.
Grandmother was the cook. She kept to complete set of dishes and pots and pans. A huge china closet full of the stuff just for passover.
I would choose one, but I am pretty ignorant of forms.
thank you

my mother didn´t use olive oil, I use it.
albahaca: my favourite aromatic plant. It is used frecuently in italian and greek food. Really great for pesto.
